Marvel's Psyker

"Harry?"

Norman asked with a tone of expectation.

"Dad, it's me."

A familiar voice rang on the phone, and Norman's hanging heart was relieved.

"Harry, are you thinking of calling Dad when you're so free?"

"Well, it's nothing, it's just...Harry and I were shopping and bought some food, but we accidentally bought too much, so I thought, take it to the company later, and have lunch with Dad "What do you think?"

Harry obviously hadn't called his father in this tone for a long time, so he was very blunt and stuttered.

But Norman doesn't care!

His heart was filled with infinite ecstasy at the moment. Ever since he had a conflict with his son in the morning, he thought that there would be another month or two of cold war between the two fathers and sons!

Although he didn't know why his son, who had always been quarrelsome with him, suddenly behaved like this, Norman quickly agreed, "Okay, come to my office at noon! I'll wait for you here!"

"Well, that's good, then we'll come by car later and hang up first."

"Well, okay, see you later!"

"See you later, Dad."

"See you later, Harry!"

After the other end of the phone hung up, Norman put down the phone with a smile on his face.

"I've never seen such a gentle smile on your face!"

Connors on the side saw the gentle smile on Norman's face, and jokingly said, "What good happened?"

"It's Harry!"

Norman put the phone in his pocket, "He said he would come to the company to meet me for lunch at noon!"

Connors was a little surprised, "As far as Harry's character is concerned, it's rare!"

"I don't know what's going on. After all, he and I just had a little disagreement in the morning. I thought it would be another month of cold war!"

Hearing Norman's words, Connors scratched his head in embarrassment.

To be honest, the main reason for the quarrel between Norman and Harry this morning was because he called Norman back to visit the experiment.

"Time really flies!" Connors changed the subject, "In the blink of an eye, Harry has grown so big!"

Norman also expressed emotion along with Connors. "Yeah, they're all in high school!"

"I remember when the lizard serum project was established, he was still a primary school student! If he didn't pay attention, he ended up in high school!"

"Yeah, time flies~"

Norman sighed with emotion, and suddenly fell silent. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the distant city skyline, in a daze.

Connors noticed Norman's trance, but he didn't disturb him. Instead, he sat quietly on the sofa, sipping the coffee in his cup.

"Connors, promise me one thing?"

"You said."

"If I pass away in a few years, please don't stop the research on lizard serum, absolutely don't stop! Until it succeeds! Okay?"

"Why did you say such a thing suddenly?"

"As I said before, my situation is getting worse and worse!"

"Aren't you 38 years old?"

"So what, it's almost here..."

Norman, who was smiling because of Harry's phone call just now, was full of sadness in his tone at the moment.

Connors lowered his head, his mood sank along with Norman.

"No matter what, thank you very much, Mr. Osborne, thank you for investing in me and providing me with such a research opportunity."

Norman laughed, "Don't say that, make me look like a philanthropist!"

"When I invested in you, I just got what I needed. You hoped to use lizard serum to cure your broken arm, and I hope to use it to cure my family's inherited blood disease. We have a common need for lizard serum!"

Norman sat back on the sofa.

The genetic blood disease of the Osborne family, this is a curse that every generation of the Osborne family cannot escape.

All family members who bear the name of Osborn, after living past the age of 38, their bodies will begin to age rapidly, and finally at the age of 40, they will die of old age in pain.

In Norman Osborn's generation, he knew that at his current age, he could no longer escape the curse.

But for the sake of the next generation of the family, he still made a decision, which is to end the curse that haunts every generation of Osborn's clan!

This is the reason why Norman Osborn was obsessed and immersed in the laboratory, and it was also what he said in front of Harry that he was willing to give his all and vowed to complete it for the rest of his life!

When he held the little angel in his arms for the first time on the day Harry was born, this belief was deeply buried in his heart, and it has never been shaken in the past ten years!

Norman sighed, "I don't know if I can survive until the day when the lizard serum succeeds!"

"Of course, at my age, I don't care about such things anymore."

"But Connors, I want to ask you one thing here! Not as the chairman of the Osborne Group, not as a project investor, but just as a father! Please, Connor Damn, Kurt Connors! Save my son!"

"I'd give anything for this! Please!"

Norman almost roared out these words. He looked directly into Connors' eyes with intense emotion, and there seemed to be thunder shining in the depths of his pupils!

Connors seemed to be in awe of Norman's eyes. These were the most dazzling pair of eyes he had ever seen in his life. The power emanating from those pupils made him tremble from the bottom of his heart!

That is the power called "Father"!

"I see!"

Whether it's a broken arm for treatment, or for the treatment of a genetic disease in the Osborne family.

In short, Connors complied with Norman's request.

"Thank you, Connors!"

Norman held out his hand.

"It's my pleasure! Mr. Osborne!"

Conners also held out his hand.

The two hands were tightly held together, both of them were very hard, and on the skin of the back of the hand, the bulging veins were faintly visible.

This is a man's oath!

······

Connors was about to go back to work, and Norman personally escorted him out of the office and sent him to the elevator, watching Connors walk into the elevator.

Connors pressed the floor button, and the elevator door slowly closed.

At the last moment when the elevator door closed, Norman suddenly said, "Connors, is it really not okay to ask that young man Waylon for help?"

Connors didn't expect that Norman hadn't given up on this idea, and was obviously taken aback after hearing Norman's words.Just when he came back to his senses and was about to respond.

The elevator doors are closed.

Norman let out a long sigh of relief and stood in front of the closed elevator door.He took out his mobile phone, and the screen saver after the screen turned on was a group photo of their family.

After watching in silence for a long time, Norman put the phone back in his pocket.

Looking at the closed elevator door, he closed his eyes and murmured softly:

"Sorry, don't blame me..."
