My surname is Stark, who changed my job to become a female big gun?

Chapter 414 Happy: This family will break up sooner or later without me!

"Listen, your CEO girlfriend is being teased by a sleazy man right now. Believe me, I just saw that shameless guy taking advantage of Pepper with my own eyes!"

Looking at Happy's big face on the holographic screen, Tony missed the point for a moment.

"Uh, wait, CEO's girlfriend, you're talking about Pepper, right? Who is that filthy man?"

Thinking of Pepper, Tony couldn't help but look serious. Someone had an idea on his head?
Good guy, for so many years, I have always picked up other people's girls. When did others dare to touch my own woman?
"Killian! Aldridge Killian! He also brought a sloppy guy named Eric Severn. These two guys just came out of the same nest. The stench gathered together and I was separated from him. You can smell it from 800 meters away!”

"Aldrich Killian?"

Tony had a vague feeling that he had heard this name before, but he didn't have a deep impression.

Well, he never bothered to remember a man's name.

"Yes, that's right. Do you remember him? We met him before. In 1999, on New Year's Eve of the century, where was he?"

Upon hearing this, Tony was stunned and subconsciously blurted out the location.

"Bern, Switzerland."

"Yes, that's right! Remember that lame guy? That's him. Now he's changed a lot. Not only is he no longer lame, he's also become handsome. It's weird, isn't it?"

Happy didn't notice the difference in Tony's expression. He stared at him in the reception room the whole time, not daring to miss a glance at the moment, for fear that the shameless guy inside would do something to Pepper while he wasn't paying attention.

"But that's not the strangest thing. Guess what I just heard Pepper say? She and this Killian are old friends. Think about it, you don't know that old friend she has worked with you for so many years? Can you be attracted by her now? If someone is called an old friend and is not angry even if the other party touches her, what kind of friend would that be?"

Happy spoke very quickly and easily dragged Tony back to reality from his past memories.

"what do you mean……"

"Look, if you don't want to lose this girlfriend, I think you'd better act fast... Oh, shit!"

Happy's tone was suddenly startled, and then he looked in the direction of the reception room with a look of disbelief.

"What is that shameless guy doing? Is he showing Pepper his brain? Is that his brain?"

Seemingly realizing the seriousness of the problem, Happy stopped talking nonsense with Tony and quickly emphasized his tone.

"Tony! Now it's a matter of life and death between you and Pepper. Take action quickly. You must not let that guy succeed! I'm watching over here for you. Before it's too late, do something quickly. Completely defeat that guy!"

"Um...Happy, I actually don't think Pepper will..."

Tony wanted to say something else, but Happy didn't give him a chance to argue.

"Shut up! Listen to me now! That man is a great threat to you! The atmosphere between the two of them is very wrong! I have to stop them, you take action now, do you hear me! Now!"

After saying this, Happy didn't care about being shameless. He hung up the phone and stood up, intending to destroy the weird atmosphere in the reception room.

"Hey~ friend, don't be so impatient. We all want to save face, so don't make things so embarrassing~"

Just like before, the bald man named Severn once again stopped in front of Happy, but this time his eyes were no longer casual, but nakedly threatening.

Happy didn't care about that. He had been putting up with this guy for a long time. If Pepper hadn't stopped him, he should have kicked him out just now!

As if he noticed something strange here, Pepper, who was standing in the center of the "brain" with Killian in the reception room, waved his hand to Happy seriously, signaling him not to be impulsive.

Seeing this scene, Happy was still a little unwilling to give up, but Severn on the side simply made fun of him.

"Don't waste your time. Your boss is not unhappy either. Look at them, aren't they enjoying it?"

Happy gritted his teeth when he heard this. He wanted to punch this guy in the face, but due to Pepper's relationship, he held back in the end.

At the same time, Happy couldn't help but secretly worry that Tony didn't know whether he did as he said.

In the reception room——

After "visiting" Killian's brain, Pepper finally knew Killian's plan.

It turns out that this guy wanted to use this technology to get close to Leni, and then use Leni's identity as an Avenger in exchange for greater support from Congress.

Of course, this also naturally includes his own admiration for Leni, hoping that this can help her as an Avenger so that she can more successfully complete the task of maintaining peace.

Well, that's what Killian said anyway. As for whether Pepper believed it or not, that's another matter. "If your assumption is correct, then this technology will be difficult to isolate from super soldiers and super weapons, and it will also be easy to be used by illegal people. Leni will not agree, and Tony will never allow it... "

However, when Pepper mentioned Tony, Killian's expression changed and became ugly.

"Tony, Tony, Tony again..."

As if recalling some unpleasant memories, Killian's eyes twitched a few times, and then he took a deep breath to calm down his emotions, forcing himself to remain so "polite".

"Actually, 13 years ago, I invited Tony to join AIM, but he refused at the time, without any courtesy. You can probably imagine that scene."

Pepper didn't speak, but she accepted it as acquiescence. After all, she knew better than anyone how bad Tony was.

"But that's not important. What we are talking about today is Miss Stark, and it has nothing to do with Tony."

As if he didn't want to mention Tony again, Killian quickly brought the topic back to Leni.

"I asked a little about her past, and it turns out that she is actually similar to me. She also experienced setbacks and was knocked down by reality for a time, but she was not afraid of those hardships at all, and finally relied on her own efforts step by step to regain her feet. This world-famous location.”

Killian spoke from the bottom of his heart, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"I long for such a girl. She seems to be my destined soul mate in this life. We will definitely be a perfect match!"

This time Killian did not behave as rudely as before. Instead, he asked Pepper seriously:
"Please, just think of it as helping me, an old friend, and please give me a chance to pursue Miss Stark!"

Seemingly being persuaded by the other party, Pepper looked at the man in front of him who had completely changed his appearance and was a little undecided for a moment.

"You're making it hard for me, Killian, Leni, she..."

After thinking for a moment, Pepper finally did not agree to Killian immediately. After all, this matter was different from others, and it was up to one's own opinion to find a matchmaker.

"Sorry, Killian, I can't help Leni make this decision without authorization. I can't do this for you."

Hearing this, Killian's face darkened, and his expression of disappointment was palpable.

"Well, I was out of proportion. In this case, I won't bother you."

After saying that, Killian calmed down his emotions for a while, and then stood up to leave.

Before leaving, he deliberately hugged Pepper at the door in front of many employees of Stark Technology as a farewell.

Looking at Killian's dejected back, Pepper sighed, wondering if she was a little too sensitive.

"Pepper?"

At this moment, Happy's voice sounded behind him, and Pepper turned back to look at him.

Noticing the concerned look in Happy's eyes, Pepper smiled, and then said gratefully:
"Happy, thanks, let's go back."

……

"Tou, what do you say? Did you succeed?"

On the way back, Severn, who was driving a Land Rover, habitually took out chewing gum from the armrest box beside him and threw it into his mouth.

"No, that woman was very wary of me, probably because I pursued her before."

Killian changed his polite look in the reception room, and the expression on his face was cold and unfamiliar.

"She thought I was the sloppy guy I used to be. Ha, if I hadn't been able to contact that little bitch Leni, why would I have come to find her?"

Recalling the past times when he pursued Pepper, Killian felt like a clown.

"If it weren't for that damn guy Stark, how could she be where she is today? How dare she refuse me!"

Glancing at the People magazine on the seat next to him, Killian stared at the blond woman on the cover and slowly uttered a sentence:

"Wait, Sketa, sooner or later I will return all the pain you have inflicted on me to you!"
