Beauty Man: Infinite Possession

Chapter 19 Doubt

"Tony, what are you looking at?"

"I'm waiting……"

Tony turned his head and refocused his eyes on the woman in front of him: "I'm sorry, can you say your name again?"

"You're not listening to me at all, are you, Tony Stark."

"Maybe, it's because someone is so attractive that I can't concentrate." Tony raised his eyebrows, and then said in a flashy manner.

"Or, someone just didn't listen carefully from the beginning to the end."

"Both explanations are acceptable, but I personally prefer the former one."

Facing Tony's frivolous reaction, the woman shook her head helplessly, and then introduced herself again: "My name is Maya Hansen, and I am currently doing research on biological programming."

"Wow, biological programming."

"You've already reacted to that earlier, Tony."

"Well, maybe I really didn't listen just now." Tony shrugged when he heard this, and subconsciously looked down at the time on the watch.

"You seem to be very concerned about time?" Maya couldn't help asking when she noticed Tony's absent-minded appearance.

"Listen, Maya, if possible, I would be more than happy to discuss your biological programming research with you and learn about your research progress and achievements, but there is another very important matter waiting for me to face. "Tony touched the notice letter of Phantom Thief Kidd in his pocket, with a look of hesitation on his face. He looked at the moving Maya in front of him and recalled the content of the notice letter.

Finally, with a wave of his hand, he made a decision: "Well, it's actually not too important. Compared with these, I actually care more about your biological programming research. I don't know if I have the honor to go to your room to study it in depth." Compared to waiting for the so-called phantom thief Kidd, Maya in front of her is more attractive to the playboy Tony.

"You can go and see my research, but that's all."

"of course."

Tony raised his eyebrows and agreed casually. He glanced at the party place in front of him, and soon found his driver, Happy, among the crowd.

"Hey Happy, it's time we head back and get my car."

"Understood, sir." After taking the key thrown by Tony, Happy glanced back and forth between Tony and Maya, and then showed a comprehending expression.

"gentlemen?"

Hearing the strange name that Happy suddenly called himself Mister, Tony couldn't help showing a little puzzled expression.

However, before Tony could think too much, a voice from behind pulled his thoughts back.

"Mr. Tony Stark, Mr. Tony Stark..."

Tony turned his head, and saw a man with long hair walking towards him with a cane: "My name is Killian, and I'm your number one fan."

"Oh, hello Killian." Tony looked at Killian in front of him and shook hands with him.

"You really don't look like you're coming to a party in this outfit."

"I came here specially for you, Mr. Tony."

"Come for me." If the person who said this was a charming and beautiful woman, Tony would naturally be more than happy to accept it, but seeing Killian's slovenly appearance in front of him, he didn't feel very happy .

"I come from a private think tank called Advanced Intelligent Machines, or AIM for short, which specializes in research on the latest cutting-edge technologies that have emerged." Killian took out two business cards from his pocket as he spoke, and turned towards Tony and Maya on the opposite side handed it over.

"Just give her both, you don't need to give them to me."

For guys like Killian who came to him to cooperate in the name of a private think tank, Tony would meet a lot of them within a period of time, so he didn't pay much attention to Killian's introduction at all.

He glanced down at the time, and then said: "Okay, Killian, I'm very glad to be able to talk with you, but there are more important things waiting for me to do next."

"Really, well, I understand." The rejection in Tony's words was quite obvious, and Killian's originally excited expression dimmed immediately.

Tony took Maya's hand and walked out a few steps. Then, as if thinking of something, he turned his head and glanced at Killian who was still standing there in a sloppy dress.

"Sorry, just wait for me."

Apologizing to Maya beside him, Tony then turned around and walked to Killian.

"You know, Ki..."

"Killian." Killian looked at Tony who had returned to his eyes again, and said excitedly.

"Yes, Killian, I rethought it again and thought that there is actually a possibility of full cooperation between us, otherwise I will send Maya away first, and we will meet on the roof in 5 minutes, you know me mean?"

"I know, no problem, Mr. Stark, I'll go right away."

"Aren't you not interested in private think tanks?" Looking away from the business card in her hand, Maya looked at Killian who left excitedly, and turned her head to Tony who came back and asked.

"I don't really have any interest in think tanks."

"Then why still?"

"I'm just very interested in Killian."

"Huh?" Hearing Tony's words, Maya subconsciously took a step aside, but she didn't expect Tony Stark, a playboy who was famous throughout New York.

"It's not that kind of interest." Looking at Maya's expression, Tony knew that she had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "I just think Killian's appearance is too coincidental, and something just happened to me. This is a very interesting thing, so I plan to make a small attempt.”

"Then what if you were wrong?"

"Then I can only say sorry to Mr. Killian."

Tony shrugged, but he didn't take what happened before him to heart. He pulled Maya out of the party.But he didn't see his car waiting for him at the door.

"Sorry, please allow me some more time."

Tony was naturally a little embarrassed that such a mistake happened at such an important moment.

Speaking to Maya, Tony turned his head and soon found the driver Happy Hogan not far away.

"Happy."

"Oh, Tony, why did you come out so early." In the distance, the driver Happy was eating a hamburger with his head down. Hearing Tony's voice, he turned his head and met Tony's gaze, and hurriedly explained: "I just I suddenly felt a little hungry, so I went nearby and bought a burger to eat."

"I'm not talking about that, what about the car?"

"What car?" Happy looked bewildered.

"My car? Didn't I just hand over the keys to you?"

Looking at Happy's blank expression in front of him, Tony suddenly became a little uneasy.

"The key? Hasn't the key been in your hand since just now?"
