A Son Pays His Father's Debts

"But your abilities allow you to help more people," Tony continued to emphasize.

Henry didn't waste too much time on this Moral debate, but instead retorted, "Tony, your family is very rich, isn't it? Okay, even putting aside your family, you yourself are very rich, aren't you?"

Although somewhat displeased, Tony Stark did not deny it, saying, "That's right. Being rich isn't a crime, is it?"

"Of course not. Then I say, take out your money or your family's money and give 10,000 yen to every poor person. Wouldn't that achieve the great vision of United States having no poor people? Wouldn't that be better?"

Tony said in surprise, "The redistribution of wealth isn't done like that. Do you need me to recommend some economics books to you? Besides, what does my or my family's wealth have to do with those poor people?"

"Yeah, it's your business if your family is rich, of course you have no obligation to share with the poor. So if I can stop bullets, should I help everyone in the world by taking a bullet for them? If someone gets shot in the future, should it all be blamed on me because I didn't stop that bullet?"

Tony wasn't swayed by such sophistry. Instead, he said, "Stark Industries does have charitable projects, so it's not that we don't help the poor, but that we don't use that crude method of distributing money."

"By the same Reason, I also think it's unfair that you should be blamed for all the people shot in the world. But you didn't help when you could see it; you're wasting the talent God gave you!"

"He truly is a future hero," Henry thought to himself.

With the future wealth of Tony Stark, who is known as the world's richest man, there are many ways he could help people, but he ultimately chose to do it personally. What a rare and precious sentiment this is.

Henry, a man who aspired to a carefree, easy life, didn't find such a thing laughable. But that didn't mean he had to emulate the other person's actions or hold the same Moral standards.

So Henry said very seriously, "I think the greatest kindness I can show to the world is not to use this talent for evil."

"While I don't mind helping others, I can't selflessly lend a hand to just anyone. Ultimately, I have neither the obligation nor the sufficient incentive to do so."

"How about this, a million dollars a year, you work for me and follow my orders." The wealthy and powerful Tony finally unleashed his financial prowess.

Henry smiled sweetly, then said decisively, "No!"

"Why? This isn't the same as wanting to be Audrey Hepburn's driver and bodyguard. Or do you think the pay isn't enough?"

"Tsk tsk tsk." Henry wagged his index finger and said, "Although I don't know what you plan to do with me, I guess it's probably just a daily bodyguard, a human shield-like position."

"Or else, you could act like a vigilante, causing trouble everywhere... Oh, no, I should say you help others for free, as long as it satisfies your vanity."

"It's noble that you're willing to pay a salary for this instead of asking me to do it for free. But helping you and helping Ms. Hepburn, no matter which one I'm helping, are two completely different things."

"Of course... it's the same!" Tony protested.

Henry analyzed seriously, "I'm employed by Tony Stark and earn a million dollars a year. But I don't know how much it will cost to see a psychologist and heal the psychological trauma I suffered while being under his command."

"Being employed by Ms. Hepburn, well, I don't know the going rate for a personal driver. But whether it's 30,000 or 50,000 a year, I can accept it. The most important thing is that the joy I feel serving the two Ms. Hepburn is priceless."

Catherine, who had been watching the whole thing, exclaimed happily, "Wow, that's so nice to hear! Come here, my good boy, here's a bite of pudding for you!"

Henry obediently brought his mouth closer, and Catherine fed him like a loving grandmother feeding her grandson.

One was happily feeding the other, and the other was enjoying their meal. Their acting skills were off the charts, their exaggeration was 100%, and the people around them were sickening to watch.

Henry, looking utterly delighted, exclaimed, "Indeed! Pudding fed to me by Catherine's own hand tastes completely different. It's absolutely delicious!"

Tony, naturally the first to react, shouted in dissatisfaction, "Our puddings are all the same! The same!" He then slammed the pudding plate in front of him onto his mouth and swallowed the chef's carefully prepared dessert in one gulp.

Henry shook his head and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, how should I put it? Scientists really don't understand the romance of artists. Even if the chemical composition and physical properties are exactly the same, how can it feel the same if it's fed in different ways?"

"It seems like if Mr. Tony wanted to give someone a gift, he'd probably just tell them to buy it themselves, wish himself a happy birthday, and then claim the expense from Stark Industries with the receipt. He wouldn't care what they actually bought."

Actually, it was a Kryptonian who revealed what Tony Stark would do in the future, which unexpectedly made Catherine chuckle and then laugh nonstop.

Seeing Catherine's incessant laughter, everyone was initially puzzled, then suddenly realized what was going on. Henry even said, "Could it be that Old Man Stark did something like this too?"

Tony Stark looked utterly embarrassed, while Catherine nodded repeatedly, saying, "I was starting to think you'd heard some rumors and were just teasing Tony Stark like that."

If anyone says the Stark in this world aren't related, we'll fight them!

He simply didn't know much about his father's romantic escapades; young Stark only knew a fraction of it. But seeing his sullen expression and the way he didn't know how to refute it, it was clear that the idea that those romantic entanglements hadn't affected young Stark was a lie.

Just talking about how Tony and Catherine met, given their age difference of over sixty years, it couldn't have been a case of love at first sight in a bar.

However, in such situations, Henry would at most provide some assists, but would never be the main attacker, so as not to attract attention.

Moreover, with Catherine's magic defense maxed out, even the future Iron Man wouldn't dare to touch her. As the main attacker and main tank, she would be invincible.

Not to mention Catherine's aggressive nature; she would seize any opportunity to attack Tony, as if she wanted to take revenge on young Stark for all the misfortunes she had suffered at the hands of Old Man Stark.

This is definitely a case of the son paying for the father's debts.

As a carefree person whose goal is to live a life of leisure, Henry unfortunately didn't bring a camera with him to record this historic moment. Otherwise, today's joke could have lasted until the other person went to their grave.

However, Catherine is very sensible; she won't really make things so awkward for Tony.

Her ability to read people is so sharp that you can tell she hasn't wasted her decades in Hollywood. Everyone here is a shrewd person, except for the future Iron Man, who's still a naive little rabbit.
