Since the business failed during the economic crisis, and his wife died when he was poor, this son is the only one left in the family.For this only son, he always felt guilty.I was always unable to be by his side when he needed me. After Osborne recovered, Amberson tried his best to give his son the best life and education, and tried his best to make up for the gray memory when he went bankrupt.

But because of work, I have been in Japan all year round, and I only come back occasionally. Fortunately, the high school Norman attended was a boarding school. Although I am taciturn, I have never failed in my studies, which makes Amberson very pleased.

Looking at this son who looks somewhat similar to himself but has a completely different personality, Amberson said: "Friday is the family anniversary, dress formally, and there will be many guests visiting. As a future The heir to Osborne Enterprises, you have to prove yourself on various occasions."

Norman, who is in high school, was not happy when he heard the news, but rather disgusted: "Besides this, don't you have anything else to say to me as you who have been working in Japan all year round?"

These words made Amberson, who was taking off his tie, pause for a moment. He glanced at his son who seemed to be hoping for something, but kept his mouth shut.

"Griffin Zeppelin will also be present. You are about the same age, you can get in touch with her. Many friends have multiple paths, and connections will come in handy one day."

Amberson certainly had his own thoughts when he said this. It's not that his son has no friends at school, but how many of those friends he knows can really help him in the future?

Just like the partners who founded the Osborne Group with themselves, when their investment failed and they faced bankruptcy, they did not use their profits to tide over the difficulties, but pointed the finger at themselves, accusing him of destroying the group .

Those friends have met so many, how many of them can really help me in the end?

not a single one.

But Griffin is definitely not such a person. During the years of working with her, Amberson has been very clear about her character.

So he thought Norman should know a friend like Griffin.And as the president of the company, if Norman inherits the family company in the future, with this relationship, even if his son doesn't have the talent for business, at least he can guarantee that he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Osborne Pharmaceuticals is the brainchild of Amberson and his wife, and he has his own obsession with the company.

Norman didn't appreciate this, and with a certain stubbornness, he resisted: "You know, I don't want to hear this."

Amberson could hear the disappointment in his son's tone, but he was in no mood to comfort him.After returning to China from Japan, he reported the annual plan to the headquarters non-stop. After finally rushing home, he still had to turn on the light to plan the focus of this year's work. All he was thinking about was work. It is already considered to be able to add some plans for his son's future. overclocked.

Although I understand what I should do most at this time, I can't hold anything else in my head.

"Sorry, Norman, can we talk about it later?"

Taking a deep breath, Norman was silent for a while and shrugged. "Whatever. You won't honor it anyway..."

"Remember to take out your dress to dry first, and use the iron if it needs to be used... Do you want me to take you to buy a new one?" Amberson said to his son who left the room.

What responded to him was the sound of the door closing after the other party went upstairs.

Even though guilt arose in his heart, Amberson took out the typewriter from the pocket.The sound of typing on the keyboard began to appear rhythmically in the study.

When he woke up, Griffin just felt refreshed.

Sleeping during working hours, enjoying this luxurious life once or twice is really exciting like having an affair--in advance, I have never done such a thing that would kill my head behind my wife's back.This is just a metaphor.

After taking the teacup from Skadi to moisten her throat, the girl began to check the message: "Did anyone come to see me when I was resting?"

The silver-haired girl shook her head first, then nodded.

"My uncle? Oh, are you talking about a tall, horse-faced gentleman with a British accent?" Although Skadi didn't say a word, Griffin understood it in seconds.

"Mmm, yes." The silver-haired girl nodded repeatedly.

Looking out of the window, I realized that the sun was slanting to the west, and the sunshine was not enough. I slept until it was almost time to get off work.

"It's actually not a big deal, you don't have to worry about it." Noticing the other party's eyes, the girl explained. "I'll see him in a minute."

In the company parking lot, the two met.

"...I found a few women named Maria, no matter their real name or Christian name." Speaking of this, Jarvis showed embarrassment. "But, it's not easy for me to come forward... I mean, I can't find a reasonable reason to convince them that Howard Stark just wants to meet and get to know each other purely."

Because of confidentiality, I can't say that Howard took the initiative to meet because he wanted to get married.

The number of his scandals has become so large that there is no love affair with him in the small newspapers. It is the point where the sun came out from the west. Some media can count on digging up his news for a living. Do it at home.

There are also noses and eyes in the description, which makes people wonder if the editor is at the scene.

If the media finds out about our actions, and then adds a headline "The scumbag is tired of playing and wants to find a good woman to spend the rest of his life with", won't everyone in New York know that he has cheated people out of new tricks?

Jarvis said that even if Howard had a thicker skin than the walls, he would be ashamed of it.

Another one, you may not know the extent of Howard's reputation in the socialite world, even women from good families have heard of his deeds.If you have a good temper, you just ignore me, and if you have a bad temper, you will do it directly.

Fortunately, I tried my best to protect my face in the end, so that my Anna would not misunderstand that I had betrayed her.

Being able to drive my wife who understands righteousness to the point of doubting me shows how extensive your uncle's influence in the social circle is.

They thought I was looking for new targets for him.

Everyone knows that it is not enough to describe your uncle's rich experience, and using notoriety is a kind of polite flattery.

"So, the problem now is how to convince the woman that my uncle really wants to go ashore." Griffin also had a bit of trouble.

In view of his long-term status in the seafood wholesale market, some behaviors in the face of women have formed subconscious conditioned reflexes.The girl just wanted Howard to get married quickly, but she didn't want her reputation to be damaged.

Why does it have to be 100 words...

Volume 245.8: [-] Group Gathering

"Give me their photos first." After much deliberation, Griffin decided to find the right one among the many candidates. "Jarvis, you don't have to meet everyone, you have to learn to take pictures like an agent."

"It makes me feel like... an unscrupulous person," Jarvis struggled.It should be said that he also learned scouting when he was serving in the Air Force, but why is this feeling so strange?

"If you are not a decent person, then there are not many decent people in the United States." After all, Griffin didn't have any pressure on this aspect.She also comforted the butler and said: "Don't worry, as long as you are concealed enough, you don't have to worry about being discovered. This is also for uncle, you are also his friend, you don't want him to live alone all his life."

Although... Jarvis felt that he shouldn't be in charge of Howard's private life, but such a large family business must be inherited by a child, which is what a friend hopes to see.He finally agreed. "Okay, give me some time."

Griffin nodded, before leaving, he emphasized again: "This matter..."

"Don't tell Howard, don't worry, I know." Jarvis only thought it was a well-prepared surprise by her, with a clear look.

"Yes, that's what I meant."

Seeing that Jarvis understood so well, Griffin felt relieved.

On Friday night, the Osborne house party went ahead as planned.

It is said to be a family anniversary, but this is obviously an exchange meeting within the Stark Group.Numerous luxury cars were parked inside and outside the manor, and all the visitors dressed themselves up in a dignified manner. The high-level celebrities either brought their wives, or brought their acquaintances with them, and came to the main banquet hall under the guidance of the busy waiters. .

The scarlet carpet under the feet, the crystal chandelier above the head, the fresh ingredients on the long table, and the band playing soothing music on one side, together create a lively atmosphere. This night is destined to be very lively.

Amberson Osborne has been carefully groomed, his hair and beard combed meticulously, and under the service of the waiter, he changed into a black dress, and the neckline pattern reflected with his movements under the light. The colorful light, white shirt and bow tie at the neckline bring out the demeanor of the old aristocrats.

Ten years ago, the Osborne Group he founded went bankrupt. The betrayal of his partner and the departure of his wife made him physically and mentally exhausted. He couldn't imagine how he survived that dark time.But fortunately, he survived and regained everything that belonged to him with the help of Howard. Today's banquet is not only to announce his return to the celebrities, but also to thank Howard for his help.

Even though the Osborne family has basically lost their status and tradition as a European aristocrat in his generation, Amberson still wants to use today's banquet to announce to the upper class that he and his family are back as kings.

He took the cane made of elm from the waiter, and when he turned around, he saw his only son, Norman, also standing at the door fully dressed.

Seeing the little boy from the past standing in front of him with a handsome face, Amberson's face showed relief.

But compared to his father, Norman's interest is not high, his face is serious.

"You are also the protagonist tonight." Amberson patted his son on the shoulder. "Don't disgrace the Osborne family."

Later, Griffin also came to the scene.

Looking at the manor shrouded in moonlight and lights, it was built in the 200th century and has a history of nearly [-] years, but there is an illusion of dreaming back to the industrial age.In the [-]th century, the West was the first to surpass the East, and the self-confidence and sense of superiority it generated made them think that they are the masters of the world.

A wide road extends to the gate of the manor, and plane trees on both sides are neatly planted like guards.Inside the gate is a marble fountain, and music can be faintly heard from the main building.

For some reason, this road gave Griffin a sense of déjà vu that he was heading to Brightwhite Manor.If she rides a horse instead of a car, this sense of déjà vu will be even stronger.

"We're getting there. Thank you Jarvis."

"I wish you a good time, sir and miss, I will pick you up later." After the butler finished speaking, he turned the car around and drove away.

Howard straightened out his formal attire. This man had a beautiful greasy hair and a well-trimmed beard, but the slyness in his eyes made him look less calm and sophisticated than he appeared on the surface.

"He really loves his wife," said Howard.

Jarvis is also very formally dressed today, but he is not preparing for this party, but intends to go to the opera with Anna.

Getting out of the car, Griffin looked down at his clothes.As Lai Lai thrives, she can still see her toes, but the curve of her bend is wider than it was a few years ago.

What she wore tonight was a pure white thick dress and a short vest, with a fur coat outside, and a pair of black pantyhose and high-heeled boots on her lower body.

The long hair was formed into a blonde braid, which was coiled a few times behind the head, and a little tail was deliberately exposed by the left ear.On the right side of her head, she wears a small top hat with lace slightly covering her forehead and right eye.In addition, she brought a pair of fluffy gloves.Although it is not cold at all, it is beautiful.

Hearing emotion, the girl raised her head and gave him a sideways glance. "Yeah, uncle, it would be great if you could have half of Jarvis's Gu family."

Don't just be envious, you should bring an aunt back to show me.

Howard coughed twice in embarrassment. "Isn't this a family yet? How can you be sure that I won't treat my wife with complete love?"

"Because I can't be sure of a thing that hasn't happened yet."

Are you implying that my words are not based on facts and made up?

Howard decided not to share her knowledge.I sized up the girl by the light, and praised: "The clothes are well chosen."

"Rent for 41 days."

"Don't mention it in front of outsiders, or they will think that I won't buy you good clothes to wear."

A smirk appeared on the girl's face, and then she said seriously: "Uncle should think about himself."

Everything has to start, and if you put the woman in front of Howard all at once, the latter will only lose his nerve. She thought it was to make a foreshadowing first, such as mentioning something on the sidelines.

"Don't worry about this." Howard still showed indifference, but the girl's words reminded him. "There are also many young people attending tonight's party. You can see if there is any suitable one. Uncle will help you with the details. After all, you are not young..."

The sales were unsuccessful and there was a wave of counter-selling. Griffin felt that people were not good.

Volume 245.9: [-] The First Green Goblin in the Future

The girl took a deep breath and declined with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, I'm not in a hurry."

"Then you still ask your uncle to marry me?" Howard was happy, but he took the opportunity to feel elated.

The girl who had nothing to say could only sulk.

I don't want to intervene artificially, do you really plan to eat young grass with old cows?She suddenly felt that the reason why Howard got married so late was mostly because his peers already knew his notoriety.After all, after 30 to [-] years, changing one every day, the women related to him can basically cover the entire Central Park, right?

Hmph, scumbag.

"Okay, don't put on a face that's stiffer than a baguette, you're half the protagonist tonight, so smile more happily." Howard said triumphantly, and walked into the hall on his own.

Soon he became one with a group of friends.

Seeing his somewhat smug back made the girl even more determined.

The group executives showed respect for Griffin's arrival. Gentlemen are all face-saving figures. Griffin is both a member of the Stark family and a group executive. Her status is second only to Stark himself.Such a status made her the focus of many people as soon as she appeared on the scene.

With their own purposes, gentlemen and ladies met her one after another, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.Although I don't like this kind of social interaction, Griffin has to put on a gentle attitude at this moment, and face everyone who comes to chat with a smile.

Fortunately, this group of people will not gnaw their hands like the previous people, which finally kept the girl's lavender-scented hands from smelling.

In addition to the old people who were originally from Stark's head office, there were also many executives from other companies who joined later.Compared with the original direct descendants, some of them are not satisfied with their identities and status, which makes them more willing to try to please.

But the superstructure has a radish and a pit, no matter how close the relationship is, it is impossible to have the possibility of being in power in a short period of time, so the current Stark Group has gradually formed factions.But as long as one of Stark and Griffin is present, these internal rivalries will not be on the table.Even her authority is greater on some occasions.

The two appeared at the same time tonight, which made the atmosphere in the room even more harmonious.

Amberson, who expressed considerable delight at Griffin's presence, praised Griffin's arrival for making the estate flourish, and the latter also praised Amberson himself as the mainstay of Infinite Energy.

After a business bragging session, Amberson motioned for her son to come forward to meet her.

"Please allow me to leave for a moment."

"Of course, you are the master here."

After Amberson left, Griffin turned his attention back to Norman, who was somewhat similar to Willem Dafoe.The boy was unprepared for the two of them alone, and he hesitated several times in his well-crafted formal attire.

His clumsy performance is like a beginner who doesn't know what to say to the opposite sex.However, Griffin did not show boredom because of his performance, because he used to perform worse than him when facing the opposite sex.

By the way, the elder of Spider-Man still has an unclear relationship with Spider-Man's ex-girlfriend, Gwen, in some parallel universes.Knowing that his son Harry is still a classmate of Gwen, it is a bit... Maybe foreigners don’t mind this kind of generational issue without blood relationship, but this kind of chaotic relationship still makes people in Asia Girls influenced by the cultural circle are very troubled.

Having said that, the Norman in front of him is not the future Green Goblin who was tricked by his son, and his current mentality is only at the normal level that a teenager should have. Griffin can't because he hasn't Do things that are biased against him.

Holding back his smile, Griffin broke the silence first: "Norman Osborn? Nice to meet you."
