Tony: Suspicious of Everyone He Sees? Just a Common Affliction Among Superheroes

"Hmm..."

Richard hummed in thought.

He wondered if Tony's sense of crisis was innate.

Or perhaps, was this sense of crisis an essential ability for superheroes?

Richard reviewed his memories and found that the plots of almost all superhero movies and television shows were always triggered by the protagonist's excessive sense of crisis, leading to an even greater disaster!

"But aren't you deliberately making things difficult for Jarvis like this? Aren't you afraid he'll grow distant from you?"

Tony shrugged. "Growing distant is still better than a sudden betrayal appearing out of nowhere one day, right?"

"But Tony..." Richard said pointedly, "The intention to betray is never formed in just a day."

"I evaluate his degree of intelligent evolution every day to ensure everything remains under control."

Richard shook his head and sighed. "Sigh, it's really hard on you, Jarvis, having to deal with an employer like this."

Jarvis's magnetic, masculine electronic voice sounded.

"It is not a hardship, Mr. Richard."

"I am extremely grateful to Mr. Tony Stark! It is only because of Sir's help that I am able to feel my own existence..."

Tony raised his wine glass high toward the surveillance camera and laughed, "Don't mention it, Jarvis. You've always been my best assistant!"
