Jean looked at Arthur and noticed that he was lying very calmly in the armchair.
"Do you understand yet?"
Jean nodded uncertainly.
"Well, it’s Tony Stark."
---------
At the sa ti.
Tony, who was being forced by the Ministry of Defense to hand over his Iron Man armor technology, couldn’t help but sneeze.
Oh Choo~
The Secretary of Defense, sitting at the top, knocked on the table and said righteously.
KNOW KNOW KNOW
"Mister Stark, may we return to where we left off?"
Tony pinched his nose and joked with the beautiful reporter next to him: "Soone must have scolded just now."
"Otherwise I wouldn’t sneeze with my physical fitness, can you believe it?"
"If you don’t believe , how about we have a more in-depth discussion tonight?"
The reporter was about to nod at the talented and rich playboy.
But the Secretary of Defense’s anxious voice sounded once again.
"Mister Stark!"
His mouth twisted in anger as he glared at Tony.
This guy is actually flirting with a woman in front of him.
But no matter what, today he’s going to make Tony Stark hand over the Iron Man armor technology.
The United States will beco the greatest power in the world when they arm the army with this technology.
"Speak love, I’m all ears."
Hearing what Tony said, everyone in the courtroom laughed.
"Can we pick up where we left off?"
The minister spoke righteously.
"Of course." Tony Stark replied lightly.
"Do you have a specialized weapon or not?"
"I am not." Tony replied.
"Don’t you?" The minister asked again.
"I don’t. It depends on your definition of a weapon." Tony replied.
"The iron man weapon."
"My device does not fit this description."
"Really? And how would you describe her?"
"I would describe it by defining it for what it is."
"As?"
"It’s... A high-tech prosthetic."
"That’s the most appropriate description I can give."
You call a prosthetic sothing that can fire an energy cannon from its palm at any ti and release hundreds of millions of joules of energy as it flies.
"It’s a gun! That’s a gun, Mr. Stark."
"Ah, please! If your priority was the well-being of the citizen-"
"No, my priority is to deliver the ’Iron Man’ weapon to the people of the United States."
"Really? You can forget it."
"I am Iron Man."
"The armor and I are one, handing over the armor would be handing myself over, which amounts to slave labor, prostitution, etc., depending on the state’s law."
"In other words, I’m not going to hand it over."
"Look, I’m not an expert-"
"In prostitution? No, you’re a senator."
"I’m not a weapons expert..."
"But we have soone here who is."
The senator imdiately said, "Let Justin Hamr in."
As soon as the words ca out, a middle-aged man wearing a suit walked in.
Tony knew this guy well.
He is a weapons salesman like he was before, but the weapons he sells are all inferior products and mostly copies of those from Stark Industries.
When Stark Industries still sold weapons, they could only secretly sell it to the black market.
After Tony stopped making weapons, the Secretary of Defense contacted them to place an order.
"I want to record that I see Mr. Hamr entering the room and I would like to know when a real expert will be at the hearing?"
As Justin Hamr took the stage, he praised Tony’s father, Howard Stark, as the father of the military industry.
At the sa ti, he also showed off his own company’s technology.
Claiming that they are also researching shielding technology and have already had success and wanted Tony to share his technology.
Seeing that Tony didn’t respond, Justin Hamr thought that Tony was shocked at him.
People in the dia were now screaming.
Because on the demonstration screen behind him, various test accidents began to play, and many experinters died testing the armors.
This ti it was Tony’s turn to ask back, "Excuse , I would like to know how these n are now."
Justin Hamr knew imdiately that this was Tony’s doing.
"Tony Stark, you are slandering !"
"Turn that off imdiately."
"What? Didn’t you put that up? That’s none of my business, Mister Hamr."
As he spoke, he raised his hand.
The content played on the cell phone in your hands is the sa as that displayed on the screen.
But Tony was just talking nonsense.
No matter how many dia outlets there are, he remains very arrogant.
Seeing that the playback could not be stopped, Justin Hamr grabbed his chair and smashed the monitor screen.
Tony pointed to the Minister of Defense on stage: "I’m Iron Man."
"You will not receive any technology from ."
"You are not worthy of this!"
So what if the person on the other side is the Secretary of Defense?
He knows very well the purpose of top US executives for this technology.
He’s not going to let this group of arrogant, ambitious suits succeed.
Tony stood up, blew kisses to everyone present, and the furious Secretary of Defense shouted at him behind his back.
The dia quickly picked up on the scandal.
It will soon be the most talked about news in the country.
---------
At Arthur’s house.
Arthur nodded, satisfied with Jean’s response, "Then you must also understand why Tony is living so well now."
"I understand, Mr. Morgan."
"Thank you for telling these things today, no matter what happens to mutants in the future, you will be our friend."
Arthur waved his hand.
"I only say this as your friend. I don’t care about others."
"Do you understand ?"
Jean imdiately nodded in understanding.
What Arthur ant was simple: don’t expose .
"Mr. Morgan, it’s getting late."
"I will go back first."
Jean was about to get up and go back when Arthur grabbed her hand and asked, "Do you know how to swim?"
Faced with this sudden question.
Jean was surprised, then nodded: "Yes."
"Then swim with for a bit, since I have nothing to do right now, the pool is back there."
"But, I didn’t bring a bathing suit, Mr. Morgan."
Jean was also moved by Arthur’s proposal.
She herself hasn’t bathed in a pool in a long ti, she hasn’t relaxed since joining the Xavier institute and the X-n.
She is in her early twenties.
It’s the age to have fun.
How can she not like playing?
Arthur stood up and said: "Don’t worry, I’ve already made an order for soone to deliver it to ."
"Should be here soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, you could hear the sound of the doorbell ringing.
Outside was a black sedan parked outside the mansion, and Arthur approached it with Jean.
Imdiately after they arrived, a woman in a suit stepped out of the sedan and asked, "Are you Mr. Morgan?"
"Yes."
"Here are the swimsuits in all the sizes you requested. They are all in this box. Please sign here."
Jean looked surprised and asked her own question: "Is clothes delivery so fast these days?"
The woman imdiately explained: "Of course not, it’s just that Mr. Morgan bought all the most expensive swimsuits in our store."
"That’s why we sent it right away."
(I see.)
Jean looked at Arthur with so resentnt in her eyes.
This ability to make money!
At that mont, at the corner of the street, Gwen appeared and asked curiously: "Arthur, what are you doing here?"
"Oh! Hey Gwen! Want to swim with us?"
