at the same time.
The atmosphere on the other side, however, was extremely tense.
Despite Gwen Stacy's enthusiastic embrace and Wanda's jealous Wanda in the hallway, Luca remained as composed as a mountain.
As a man of the Stark Family, what kind of chaotic situations haven't I seen?
This scene isn't even an appetizer.
With everyone present as witnesses, he released Gwen Stacy's lips without changing his expression, and then naturally put his arm around her slender waist.
"Honey, let me introduce you."
Luca looked at Gwen Stacy and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"This is Wanda Maximoff, the company's newly recruited promising newcomer, and also my personal power bank... oh no, my personal assistant."
Upon hearing the term "personal power bank," Wanda's face instantly turned bright red.
Those ambiguous scenes from last night immediately flooded my mind.
Then, Luca looked at Wanda and began to introduce her in a gentle tone.
" Wanda, this is Gwen Stacy Daisy, the daughter of the New York Police Department Chief George and my girlfriend."
girlfriend?
Wanda paused for a moment, unsure what to say.
But Gwen Stacy is a smart girl.
She keenly sensed the hostility in Wanda's eyes and also realized that the girl had different feelings for Luca.
However, Gwen Stacy wasn't angry.
Luca's reputation is known worldwide.
From the moment she decided to be with him, she had already prepared herself mentally.
Therefore, in this situation, what she needs to do is to display the confidence and presence befitting a legitimate girlfriend.
With this thought in mind, Gwen Stacy did not hesitate and stepped forward, smiling as she extended her hand to Wanda.
"Hello, Miss Maximoff, Luca often talks to me about work. He's usually quite picky, so you must be excellent to be his personal assistant. I'll be looking after Luca in his personal life from now on."
These words directly relegated Wanda to the position of a mere employee.
Wanda felt incredibly jealous and wanted to smash the water glass right in Luca's face.
But faced with Luca's invisible yet powerful aura, Wanda dared not retaliate.
Left with no other choice, he could only reluctantly withdraw the Chaos Magic, and the boiling water in the glass calmed down.
Despite her thoughts, Wanda still managed a smile and shook hands with Gwen Stacy.
"Hello, Miss Stacy. Thank you for your concern, but this is my job."
Pietro was behind him, saw everything and was immediately disappointed.
I thought my sister would go berserk and use magic to tear this scumbag to shreds.
That's it? Is that all?
"Useless," Pietro muttered under his breath, rolling his eyes in frustration.
After watching Luca's effortless maneuver, Steve couldn't help but shake his head.
"This kid's skin is thicker than a tank's armor."
"His mouth could definitely seduce any nun in the convent. Pietro, your sister is hopeless; she's completely under this guy's thumb."
Pietro was hit where it hurt, his face turned red, and he glared at Steve fiercely, but dared not say a word back.
Luca completely ignored Steve's complaints.
Is this considered a complaint? It's just stating the facts.
And nuns?
Why didn't I think of this identity before?
Wow, no wonder he's a WWII veteran; his hobbies are certainly unique.
Soon, he put his arm around Gwen Stacy's shoulder and continued introducing the other people in the apartment.
"Come on, Gwen Stacy, let's get acquainted. This grumpy kid is Pietro, Wanda's brother. His power is super speed, though of course, not as fast as me."
Gwen Stacy waved to Pietro in a friendly manner.
Hello, Pietro. It's nice to meet you.
Pietro hated Luca to the core.
But faced with the warm and polite Gwen Stacy, he couldn't afford to lose his temper and could only manage a forced smile.
Hello, Gwen Stacy.
Then, Luca pointed to Steve was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigar.
"As for this one, I think you've probably seen him in your history textbooks. Steve Rogers, an outdated Old Popsicle... well, you'd probably call him Captain America."
Even without Luca's introduction, Gwen Stacy was already stunned.
Although she already knew about Captain America's resurrection from the news.
But seeing her childhood idol sitting right in front of her still made her very excited.
Gwen Stacy then quickly walked up to Steve and greeted him warmly.
"Oh my god! It really is you! Captain Rogers! I'm your biggest fan!"
Gwen Stacy was so excited that she started gesturing wildly and began reciting the contents of her textbook incessantly.
"The textbook says that in 1943 you single-handedly destroyed several Germany secret bunkers! And during the Normandy landings in 1944, you led your assault team to the front lines, single-handedly taking down an entire enemy company! And in 1945, to protect civilians, you shielded them from tank fire with your bare hands! You were simply amazing!"
Gwen Stacy looked at him with admiration, her eyes sparkling.
Steve had intended to greet her politely, but he was somewhat confused by what Gwen Stacy said.
After thinking it over, I realized that this little fan was probably joking with me.
Perhaps, it's just that their methods are a bit unusual.
Thinking of this, he smiled with satisfaction, then pointed at Gwen Stacy and teased her.
"You made up those words."
Gwen Stacy looked completely bewildered and quickly shook her head.
"No! This is all written in the history textbook! My classmates and I have been learning this since we were little, and we greatly admire your heroic deeds!"
Steve seemed to understand something, and his face instantly darkened.
"Bullshit!"
"Those idiotic politicians just make things up! I was frozen at sea in 1941, how could I have had time to do things in 1943 and 1944?"
"Block tank shells with bare hands? Why don't they just write that I can punch the earth to pieces! These sons of bitches politicians just use my name to fool you little brats!"
Gwen Stacy looked completely bewildered.
She stood there, stunned, staring at the burly, bearded man in front of her who was spewing profanities.
Is this still the Captain America who represents justice, courage, honesty, and moral excellence?
His idol image, built up over many years, was shattered.
My illusions about Gwen Stacy have shattered, and I'm starting to question the meaning of life.
Seeing Gwen Stacy's bewildered expression, Luca chuckled softly.
"See, little Gwen Stacy? That's just how Steve's mouth is, sweet as honey. You'll see it many more times in the future, so get used to it."
Steve snorted and flicked his cigarette ash.
"I only tell the truth. Unlike some members of the Stark Family, whose mouths are full of lies and sycophants."
Gwen Stacy gave an awkward laugh, unsure how to respond.
He didn't know about the lie, but she certainly heard everything Jin Ye said that day.
Seeing Luca and Gwen Stacy so close, Wanda felt increasingly heartbroken for some reason.
She kept her head down, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly, her eyes reddening.
Pietro couldn't bear to see his sister looking so upset.
So he leaned close to Wanda and whispered a word of advice.
" Wanda, wake up! Luca is just a Playboy. He doesn't care about you at all. Don't let him fool you anymore."
It would have been better if he hadn't said anything, because as soon as he did, he received a murderous glare from Wanda.
Pietro paused for a moment, then shrank back, startled by his sister's gaze. He gave an embarrassed smile and obediently shut his mouth.
Well, he, as the older brother, really doesn't understand the feelings between women.
