Compensation, Departure

As Pepper anticipated, the end of the matter resulted in May Parker choosing the first option.

Out of guilt, Happy took the initiative to raise the compensation amount from one million dollars to three million dollars.

Now not only those two female colleagues were envious, but even the two male colleagues could not help showing envy and jealousy in their gazes toward May Parker.

On the spot, Pepper granted May Parker a long, one-month vacation, allowing her to properly adjust her mood.

She also stated that once the vacation ended, May Parker was welcome to continue working at Stark Industries.

Upon receiving this promise, May Parker finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Whether it was the one million dollars in emotional compensation previously promised by Pepper or Happy's subsequent three million dollar compensation, neither compared to this final promise!

For both her and Peter, working at Stark Industries was not only a source of stable living expenses for the widowed aunt and her nephew, but also a hidden, powerful backing!

Because of this job, those prying gazes that used to surround their orphaned aunt and nephew would all vanish!

Gratefully, May Parker bowed deeply toward Pepper. "Thank you for your help, Ms. Pepper!"

Reaching out, Pepper helped her up and said, "Ms. Parker, just take this time to properly adjust your mood. When you return, I will assign you a new and important job."

Subsequently, she motioned for the female assistant to escort May Parker and the others out of the conference room.

Soon, only Pepper and Happy remained in the conference room.

Pulling the laptop left by the female assistant toward her, Pepper rewound the surveillance video to the starting timeline.

She clicked play, and the video quickly advanced to the exact frame where the red phantom appeared.
