Why Don't You Go Back to Your Room?
She could imagine the pressure Tony Stark had been under during this time, especially since even the person he trusted most, herself, hadn't understood or sympathized with him, and instead had been cold and sarcastic towards him. She wondered how painful it must have been for him.
Tony Stark looked at the excited Pepper in front of him, took a step forward, looked down at Pepper, and said affectionately.
I don't want you to worry.
Tony Stark's explanation made Pepper unable to hold back her tears any longer.
Their eyes met, and at that moment, they saw only each other.
Tony Stark reached out and wrapped his arms around Pepper's slender waist, pulling her forcefully into his embrace. Their lips drew closer and closer until they finally kissed!
Pepper's arm involuntarily wrapped around Tony's neck.
These two people had secretly loved each other for several years, but due to various concerns and reasons, they had never confessed their feelings. At this moment, they couldn't help themselves and forgot everything, passionately kissing each other.
Around the two, a group of people stared wide-eyed at their oblivious intimacy, and Steve Rogers quickly stepped forward to block Sharon Rogers from view.
However, the little girl had no awareness of the impropriety of looking at something improper. She curiously peeked out from behind Steve, staring intently at the two who were still deeply engrossed in their kiss.
Chen Mo glanced at Sharon Rogers, who was watching with great interest, and had to interrupt the two who were completely engrossed in their conversation in order to prevent them from setting a bad example for the children.
"Why don't you go back to your rooms?"
Tony and Pepper, still basking in the afterglow of their first kiss in all these years, finally snapped out of their reverie and reluctantly parted ways.
Thinking about how she had impulsively kissed Tony in front of everyone, Pepper blushed slightly, but being a free-spirited and easygoing person, she didn't shy away.
Tony Stark looked at Pepper with a gleam in his eyes, seemingly quite interested in Chen Mo's suggestion, as if he was still eager for more.
Sensing Tony Stark's unusual gaze, Pepper quickly understood his thoughts. Her face flushed, and she glared at him fiercely. Tony had no choice but to regretfully put aside his further plans for the time being.
Sharon Rogers, who had been watching the show from behind Steve, reluctantly emerged from behind Steve when she realized there was nothing more to see and asked Tony Stark a question in confusion.
"You just said you successfully created New Element and made a new battery..."
Sharon was only halfway through her sentence when Tony Stark interrupted her with an eye roll, correcting her.
"It's not a battery, it's Fourth Generation Arc Reactor!"
"It's not the same thing!"
Sharon, however, remained unconcerned and continued speaking to herself.
"So where's your new battery? Is it built-in now? And where did the hole in your chest go?"
The words "battery," "built-in," and "hole" made Tony Stark's eyes twitch. If Chen Mo, Steve, and Carter hadn't been there, he would have given this brat a good beating. Did she think she was a robot?!
He glared fiercely at Sharon, only to be met with a fierce retort from Sharon. Their eyes collided in mid-air, making a crackling sound.
Well, that's Sharon Rogers' own feeling.
In the end, Tony Stark was defeated by Sharon Rogers, who had three Super Hero backing him up. He looked away unwillingly, while Sharon Rogers, who had won a great victory, proudly raised her head.
Ignoring the smug Sharon Rogers, Tony Stark turned to the crowd and explained the changes in himself.
Chen Mo had already mentioned to Dr. Ethan that everyone in the villa was eligible for enhancement, so Tony Stark didn't hide anything and told him that Chen Mo had injected him with the X-Gene Serum, giving him healing abilities and telekinesis.
The others were fine, but Sharon Rogers' eyes lit up as she listened to Tony Stark's story. She ran over to Chen Mo, grabbed his arm, and hugged him tightly. She looked up at Chen Mo with her big, bright eyes, her expression pitiful.
"Daddy, you're unfair! You only give the good stuff to Tony and not me!"
Chen Mo smiled and stroked Sharon's head, speaking softly.
"Who said I wouldn't give it to you? I'm using Tony as a test subject first to see if he'll turn into a monster. Only after I'm sure there are no problems can I give it to my Sharon!"
Even though Tony Stark knew Chen Mo was just trying to appease Sharon, he couldn't help but look constipated.
Dad, even if you love your daughter, you don't have to treat me like I was adopted! I'm your own godchild!
Sharon Rogers looked speechless and said to Chen Mo unhappily.
"Daddy, I'm not a little kid anymore."
Chen Mo couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Haha! That's right! I forgot, Sharon is an adult now! Daddy wasn't here for your birthday and didn't give you a present, so how about I make it up to you now?"
Sharon's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she nodded quickly.
Chen Mo smiled as he stroked Sharon's soft hair and asked.
"So tell Daddy, what gift do you want?"
Upon hearing this, Sharon's eyes lit up instantly, and she asked expectantly.
"Anything is fine?"
Chen Mo laughed and nodded.
"Anything is fine!"
Chen Mo's tone was full of strong confidence, and no one present thought he was exaggerating. In particular, Natasha Romanoff, who knew Chen Mo's true identity, looked at the innocent Sharon Rogers with envy.
As an elite HYDRA agent, she knew the power of HYDRA better than anyone, and Chen Mo, as the controller of HYDRA, was indeed qualified to say such things.
As long as Sharon speaks up, becoming a real princess is no problem. Norway, as HYDRA's stronghold, is completely under HYDRA's control. Conferring Sharon the title of princess is just a matter of a word. She could even aspire to be queen; the current king could simply pass the throne to her. I believe no one in Norway would object!
As for other "ordinary" gifts such as top-tier jewelry, watches, sports cars, airplanes, and yachts, they are very simple. Even if she wanted the Queen of Britain's crown, Chen Mo could get it for her.
It can be said that as long as something exists on Earth, and as long as Sharon wants it, Chen Mo can help her achieve it.
Everyone present was curious about what gift she would want. Steve and Carter remained silent, standing aside with smiles on their faces, knowing their daughter well enough to believe she wouldn't make any unreasonable demands.
