[Superman] Number One Enemy

Clark anxiously observed Audrey's expression.

"You knew I was Superman from the start?" Clark asked.

Audrey didn't answer directly. "Thank you for saving Natasha during the battle," she said, softening at the mention of Natasha's name. "Also, I heard you saved Pietro too. Charles asked me to convey X Thanks to the academy and mutants."

Clark thought of the principal of Academy X, the names of Professor X, and then remembered the friendship between Mystique and Audrey.

"No. I just did what I could."

Audrey pursed her lips slightly, turned her head away, and couldn't hold in her next sentence for a long time.

Clark lowered his head and stared at Audrey.Today his boss is also not forthright.

"So... you really knew I was Superman?" Clark asked again intentionally.Want to step down for Audrey.

Audrey raised her eyes and looked at Clark. "First of all, my guardian is the Black Widow, my uncle is the Winter Soldier, my girlfriends are named Stark and Xavier, I almost grew up in the SHIELD and the Stark Building, Charles can read minds. As early as Charles saw through your aliens as you flew around the globe, Mr Kent."

Clark laughed. "God, this makes me feel like an idiot."

Audrey pursed her lips and looked away, "... There are still quite a few people who haven't noticed it? For example, your ex-girlfriend. Although I think those who didn't recognize you are born with disabilities and have eye problems."

Clark smiled wryly.Today his boss is also unforgiving.

Audrey stared down at the floor.When Clark saw her start kicking the corner of the sofa, he knew that she still had something to say.

"I'm very, thank you for everything you did for the Avengers this time." Audrey said, unable to lift her head, her low voice was full of awkwardness, "Natasha is the most important person in my life. I don't I can imagine that she was a little bit surprised. She was like my mother, who raised me, educated me, loved me, and protected me.”

"Without her, James will go crazy, and so will I. Steve may not be able to bear the blow brought by James' collapse, and the Avengers may be torn apart."

"Thank you for taking the risk to help us. Clark...you are my hero."

Speaking of the last sentence, Audrey blushed.

Clark tried his best to restrain his smile, for fear of accidentally offending Audrey, then he would never want to hear such sweet truths from Audrey again.Such Audrey is really cute.Clark almost wanted to hug Audrey.

"Aren't you going to look up and talk to me?" Clark asked, smiling.

"No." Audrey resolutely refused, turned her head away forcefully, and gritted her teeth a little bit, "I don't want to see you look proud. I'll beat you up."

Clark pursed his lips and smiled.He stretched out his hand and restrainedly touched Audrey's head lightly.

Audrey immediately turned to stare at Clark. "Who allowed you to touch my head? How tall?!"

Clark was taken aback for a moment, but finally couldn't hold back and laughed.

Audrey put her arms around her chest, raised her jaw, and stared at Clark.

"Sorry." Clark cleared his expression and cleared his throat. "Thank you. Thank you for your compliment, sir. I'm honored to be your hero."

Audrey rolled her eyes without a trace. "Just be arrogant, Kent. Go back to the company and see how I treat you."

"I'm not arrogant." Clark said innocently.After a pause, he asked again: "Then can I spend more time with Brandon? He is the cutest kid I've ever seen."

Audrey narrowed her eyes to examine Clark.

Clark immediately paused and stood at attention.

"Of course you have to find him likable." Audrey said, with a somewhat ambiguous tone, "Everything is different. You must keep your distance."

Clark frowned, not knowing why.

Audrey suddenly turned her head to avoid Clark's gaze.

"I'm getting married, Kent." Audrey said calmly, "Brandon will have a father in the future, and I don't want him to focus too much on anyone other than his father."

Clark's smile froze at the corner of his mouth.

…Sorry, what did he hear just now? !

It was a successful scare.At the time, Clark thought so.

— Audrey is getting married!Who is she going to marry? !

Come on, Audrey is single.As Audrey's subordinate, Clark has been with her for more than twelve hours a day for the past six months. He knows Audrey's daily itinerary, scope of activities, travel route, and circle of friends better than anyone else. He even likes to eat Chinese dinner for lunch. He can memorize his favorite Western food, which restaurant to order and which cuisine to order.

Audrey is single.Absolutely single.Guaranteed to be single.

Unless Audrey suddenly fell in love with someone within the two months of his transfer.

...isn't it? !

It was a successful scare.At that time, Audrey thought so.

—she is getting married? !What is she saying!Who she wants to marry, she doesn't even have a partner.Although she did plan to find a stepfather for Brandon, the point is, what did she tell Clark about this!

Well, now the itinerary has to be completed ahead of schedule.Audrey thought a little bit brokenly.

Maybe she could go find a contract lover.That's the kind, sign a contract, you don't have to love each other, and take marriage as a task to complete.

Or if she can take Steve down...

...Forget it, pretend she didn't say it.

Come to think of it, Tony definitely did it on purpose.

"I just wanted to last Saturday, why did you suddenly insist on me going to Stark Tower. Tony, now I'll give you 30 seconds to think about it, you'd better confess to me frankly, what exactly do you want to do."

This is a dinner among girlfriends.The location is at a restaurant chosen by Audrey.The members are Audrey, Tony, and Raven.

"Before I answer, I want to confirm one thing."

Tony opened his mouth, picked up a tissue to wipe off the tea on his lips, raised his head, pointed at Ruiwen at the opposite table, and complained to Audrey dissatisfiedly: "Why is she here too?"

"That's the question I want to ask." Raven rolled her eyes.

Audrey calmly cut open the fish fillet and put a small piece on Ruiwen's plate, "Which time we have a dinner together is not three people? Admit it, you two. You are bad friends who have known each other for many years."

"We've only known each other for years—"

"But we're not friends."

Tony and Ruiwen spoke in unison, and then stared at each other in disgust after speaking.Audrey has long been used to these two confronting each other, anyway, nothing has happened in the past few years, it seems that Tony and Ruiwen don't really hate each other that much.

"Don't run away from my questions, Tony."

"Okay. Actually, I have a deal with Brandon..."

"You promised Brandon to take him to Superman?"

"...Yes. I promised Brandon that I would take him to see Superman."

Tony spread his hands and confessed.

Audrey rubbed her forehead with both hands with a headache.

Riven raised her eyebrows and lowered her head to eat the baked pudding.

"Come on! Audrey, you can't run away from this for the rest of your life. Brandon is six years old, and soon he'll see his resemblance to Superman. And look at Brandon's expectant face! You're willing to let him disappointment?"

Audrey still held her head, not wanting to face it.Rarely has she shown such a breakdown.

Ruiwen glanced out the window of the box, thought for a while, and echoed: "Tony is right. Charles said that Brandon will wake up at the age of seven at the latest, and he will discover his superpowers. If he asks Charles about this For one thing, Charles didn't want to deceive him."

"I know," Audrey said irritably, "I just don't want to..."

"You don't want to admit this?"

Audrey looked up and looked at Tony.

"Then explain it to him." Audrey said, with a downcast face, "how are you going to explain to Brandon that the reason why his mother is pregnant is because Superman was infected with something similar to krypton during the battle with his old enemy. Shi's experimental substance, causing out-of-control results?!"

"That was an accident that should be wiped out! I don't regret having Brandon, I'm honored that God gave me this baby, he's an angel, but it's more ridiculous than getting pregnant after a night in a club with a stranger .”

"I don't want Brandon to think, well, it's discovery, to find out that he wasn't made by his parents out of love, and I don't want Brandon to think that his birth was a mistake, and that he's going to be wronged by the world because of it. Negative perceptions. And Kent was probably, probably still dating Lynn at the time. It's going to be a red flag."

Tony and Raven raised their eyebrows at the same time, staring at Audrey.At such a time, their tacit understanding suddenly became unreasonable.

"Don't tell me you're worried about damage to Superman's reputation," Raven asked.

"He's Brandon's father. I'm not...I'm not worried about Kent. I'm worried about what people think of Brandon." Audrey argued.

Ruiwen was speechless, exchanging glances with Tony.

"Okay, you have a point." Tony shrugged and glanced out the window, "Then how are you going to solve it?"

"I'm going to find a father for Brandon." Audrey said, with a firm tone, "This matter is already planned, I don't have enough time, and I can't always ask you to help me take care of the children."

"Then you need a nanny." Raven rolled her eyes, "or just send Brandon to our academy."

"That's also in the plan." Audrey said, "When he gets older, I want him to get in touch with human society and have more experience. Nanny is impossible. You want an ordinary person to step into our house ?It's not funny, that could kill people."

"Wait. Wait." Tony raised his hand to stop Audrey from continuing, "You said that you want to find a father for Brandon, not to find another godfather for him, because I am his godfather, but Are you going to get married?!"

Ruiwen and Audrey looked at the shocked Tony at the same time.

"That's right." Audrey nodded, "Otherwise, what do you think?"

"That's why I asked her to throw the baby at the academy," Raven rolled her eyes. "It's stupid, marrying for the baby. Hank wouldn't dare do that to me."

The author has something to say:

Then it was Clark's turn to panic.

I don't know when Clark will find out that he doesn't like Louise anymore...
