Chapter 635
She's just using Homelander to advance her own career.
Deep down, she, like everyone else, loathed the Homelander were always acting on a whim, who knew nothing but were self-righteous!
Homelander looked at Queen Maeve noticed that her expression was a bit strange, and the uniform she was wearing seemed to be different from before!
Call him!
"The Homelander said sternly."
Queen Maeve slowly rose, walked to an open space, and said eagerly, "You know what? I've wanted to say this for a long time!"
"I'm a member of the Seven, and I'm the second most popular superhero after you."
"I am neither your follower nor your puppet!"
"Oh, by the way, I slept with your Dad, so in terms of our relationship, you should call me stepmother!"
The world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be.
Queen Maeve, who was forced into being my romantic partner, now dares to demand that I call her my stepmother...
Homelander was furious. He stared intently at Queen Maeve. To paraphrase an old saying, if looks could kill, Queen Maeve would have died countless times over.
But he had to endure it!
Because he lost his superpowers, because his eyes could no longer kill.
Moreover, Queen Maeve was extremely arrogant, and her eagerness to fight back seemed to make her want to turn on them.
No, I can't let anyone know I've lost my superpowers. I have to endure it, I absolutely have to!
The Homelander swallowed his anger and resentment, forcing a fake smile onto his face.
"I went too far before. If I hurt you, I apologize. I'm sorry!"
"I have something very important and urgent to discuss with him. Could you please give him a call?"
Please.
Tolerate it?
The Homelander actually tolerated it?
Not only did he tolerate it, but he even apologized to me?
My God, it seems Su Quan is truly the father of the Homelander! This... this is too absurd!
When Starlight said on the phone that Su Quan was the father of Homelander, Queen Maeve was still somewhat skeptical.
Because no one knew more about the feud between Su Quan and Homelander than she did, and Su Quan had never told her that he was Homelander's father.
However, President Madelyn also said so, and Homelander's apology is solid evidence that Su Quan is indeed Homelander's father!
Queen Maeve looked at the swallowing Homelander and suddenly smiled, "I can call him, but you have to explain what happened first."
The Homelander frowned. "This has nothing to do with you. We, father and son, will handle this ourselves."
"Not going to talk?"
"Ha, times have changed. I am not the same person I used to be!"
Queen Maeve reached to her waist, picked up the Lasso of Truth that shone with golden light, and put it directly on Homelander.
Homelander was terrified and tried to break free, but the power of the Lasso of Truth drained his strength, and he instantly collapsed to his knees, weak and powerless.
Queen Maeve was slightly taken aback, not expecting the Lasso of Truth to be so powerful that Homelander was powerless to fight back.
"Tell me, what is it that you're in such a hurry to see Su Quan about?"
Queen Maeve, gripping the Lasso of Truth, asked triumphantly.
"Ring ring ring... Ring ring ring..."
The landline phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Madelyn answered the phone, and a few seconds later, with a serious and solemn expression, she hung up the phone swiftly and walked out of the office.
Queen Maeve withdrew her gaze and forcefully tugged at the Lasso of Truth at Homelander was gritting his teeth and had a ferocious expression.
"Uh... uh... I... I'm looking for him... to restore... his abilities..."
The perseverance of the Homelander could not ultimately withstand the power of the Lasso of Truth.
Although he gritted his teeth and resisted with all his might, that mysterious force still made him involuntarily reveal the secret he least wanted anyone to know!
"Recovery ability???"
"You... you've lost your superpowers?!"
Queen Maeve stared wide-eyed in surprise at the equally incredulous Homelander.
"What did you do!"
The Homelander angrily questioned loudly, but then, as if suffering from a split personality, he answered with a dazed expression.
"Yes, in order to activate Ryan's abilities, my father pretended to attack me and Becca..."
"Who is Ryan? And who is Becca?" Queen Maeve asked curiously.
"Ryan is my son, Becca is Ryan's mother," Homelander replied cooperatively.
Goodness.
Homelander not only have fathers, but now they even have sons!
"My father injured me with his powers, and for some reason, I lost my superpowers."
"My father asked Ryan whether he wanted his father, that is, me, to be a useless person who only relied on superpowers, or a hero who, even without superpowers, had the courage and ability to face everything!"
"Ryan wants me to be a hero."
"But I don't want to lose my superpowers, and I can't accept losing them."
"Without superpowers, I'm just a useless piece of trash who can't do anything. No one will support me anymore, and no one will acknowledge me!"
The Homelander was talking non-stop, completely unable to control his urge to confide.
Queen Maeve curled her lip. "You have a very clear understanding of yourself. Without superpowers, you're not only a piece of trash, but a piece of trash who wouldn't last a single day at Vought International!"
Homelander did not refute; having no other choice, he had completely given up.
"I can't let anyone know I've lost my superpowers, otherwise A-Train, the Deep, and you, you bunch of trash, will never let me go!"
"I must find my father as soon as possible and restore my superpowers!"
"So please help me contact him and get my superpowers back!"
Please!
"I'll do anything you ask if you're willing to help me!"
Queen Maeve gave a mocking laugh, "I'm the good-for-nothing you speak of. I can't help you with this!"
The Homelander panicked and hurriedly said ingratiatingly, "No, no, no, although you are a good-for-nothing, the fact that you were able to contact my father means that you have served him very well."
"..."
Is this some kind of pandering?
Queen Maeve fell silent, and Homelander fell silent too.
After a while.
Homelander, in a fit of rage, cried out, "What the hell is this thing? Why is it making me uncontrollably tell the truth?!"
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Looking at Homelander's emotional breakdown, Queen Maeve, gloating, said quietly, "This is the Lasso of Truth. Once caught in it, you can only tell the truth."
"This was given to me by your father, along with the rest of my equipment. He said they are all divine artifacts! Real divine artifacts!"
The Homelander are speechless. How could there be a real magical artifact in this world?
Even if he did have one, his father shouldn't have given it to Queen Maeve so easily.
The thought crossed his mind, Homelander instinctively shut his mouth.
I didn't tell anyone, did I?
No, I can't say anything more. This is making things worse and adding insult to injury!
Taking a deep breath, Homelander composed himself and slowly began to speak, "Although I lost my superpowers, my father did this in the hope that I would grow up and become a real man."
"I am his son, his only son, so he would never let anything happen to me."
"One day I will regain my superpowers. When that time comes, I will be his proud son, and you... may not still be the woman he loves."
Queen Maeve frowned and said coldly, "Are you threatening me?"
"Yes!"
"I'm threatening you, but if you're willing to help me, I think we can cooperate."
"Cooperate?"
"You help me figure out how to regain my superpowers, and I'll help you solidify your position by my father's side!"
