David turned slightly to look at Lena, who happened to raise her head and look at David at that moment. Their eyes met.
Feeling the hint of heat in David's gaze, Lena was secretly delighted, but she could not help feeling a little shy and looked away. She turned to the gossiping female agent beside her, and the shyness in her eyes quickly vanished, replaced by immense pride.
Everyone around them was one of their own, so Lena did not hide anything or flatly deny it. Instead, she said loudly with a wicked grin.
"You can try. Don't worry, I don't mind!"
The others immediately began egging them on.
"Hey, Nicole, give it a try! Lena said she doesn't mind!"
"That's right, Nicole, we support you!"
Nicole, the female agent who had teased her, could not help blushing. She was still no match for Lena, her senior, in this regard!
Just then, David, who was walking ahead, suddenly turned around and looked at Lena.
"Sorry, but I mind! I'm a devoted man!"
The others fell silent for a moment, then shouted even more excitedly.
"Woohoo, Lena, Boss is confessing to you!"
"Poor Nicole, looks like you don't stand a chance!"
"Don't be sad, Nicole. There are plenty of good men in our department. What do you think of me?"
"Get lost!"
Watching his subordinates fool around, David could not help smiling with ease.
Guys, you haven't let me down, and I won't let you down either. Just wait—I'll lead you all to achieve our ideals together!
Thinking of the expressions they would make once they learned of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s existence, David could not help revealing a mischievous grin.
Not just S.H.I.E.L.D., but the Super Soldier Serum and superpowers as well. Those guys would probably go mad with excitement, wouldn't
