[Superman] Number One Enemy

Chapter 9 Delicate and super; it should be, a good husband

Audrey stared fixedly at Clark.Clark wasn't sure if it was because he had changed his address to her, or his attitude.But then, Audrey came down to work, as if all the fleeting tenderness just now was just Clark's illusion.

Clark shook his head with a wry smile, faced the screen, and went to work.

In fact, Audrey didn't expect Clark to complete the work she delivered.

To be precise, she didn't really want Clark to finish these things, she just wanted to dismiss Clark, because Bruce and the citizens of Gotham didn't like Superman, and Audrey didn't want to complicate things, and she also worried that Bruce would conflict with Clark .

These two men, Audrey, have gotten along with each other and have a certain degree of understanding. She knows that these two people can become good friends—the kind who don't know each other.Gotham believes in Batman's set of illegal justice, which is absolutely in extreme conflict with Superman's ideas.

From the results, she failed.Clark still showed up at the banquet, and Bruce didn't say anything, but Audrey knew that Bruce was getting more and more dissatisfied with Clark.

Clark really shouldn't have said that "for her."

In short, Audrey sees that Clark will answer the phone today and get soft.Throughout the morning, Clark was haunted by reporters who kept breaking into her office, and he looked so pitiful that Audrey felt a little sympathetic.

For God's sake, Audrey thought; it was because of her that this silly and naive alien got into trouble, and Audrey decided to do something good.

Audrey called Jarvis.

Ten minutes later, Audrey walked to Clark's desk with her bag in hand.

"Kent."

Clark looked up and was shocked to find that Audrey was carrying her bag again.His heart began to howl.No way, his boss is leaving early again?

"Yes, sir. What's the matter?"

"Now, pack your things." Audrey ordered, raising her hand to check the time, "You have 30 seconds."

Clark was stunned.He completed Audrey's order almost subconsciously, and then thought, no, where are they going?

Audrey has been busy, busy making phone calls and sending text messages.Clark didn't dare to ask any more questions. He took his briefcase and followed Audrey into the elevator.

Go up the elevator to the top floor.

The noise of the propeller and the gust of wind caused it to blow Audrey's ponytail.

"Get in the helicopter," Audrey said.

"Where are we going?" Clark finally couldn't help asking.

Audrey gave Clark a strange look. "Eat. Don't you go to eat at lunch time?"

Clark found that no matter what Audrey said, it felt very reasonable.He even followed Audrey onto the helicopter unconsciously.

"Good day, Miss Barnes." The driver greeted Audrey.

Audrey nodded, and first sat in the seat facing the driver and facing away from the tail.

Clark entered the cabin cautiously.This helicopter looks so high-end, there is actually a small refrigerator inside, and the chairs are leather chairs with a faint leather smell.

Clark fidgeted a little.

"The office..." Clark thought, both of them came out, what about work?

"Don't worry." Audrey glanced at Clark, then turned to look out the window, "No one will help you with any work. They will be waiting in the office for you to go back."

"But the phone..."

"Is that important? If it's important enough, he will find a way to find me. If it's not important enough, why waste your time?"

"Oh." Clark looked down.Too.

Audrey's gaze shifted from the blue sky outside the window to Clark.

Clark tried his best not to notice that Audrey was looking at him.It's not an illusion, Audrey's eyes are so strange.

At this moment, Audrey was thinking.

In fact, the child's father looks passable.She, who has been facing beautiful faces every day since she was a child, has to give an excellent evaluation.

Then, Audrey thought again.

Well, the figure is passable.No worse than Bruce and Steve.

He has a good personality, and he should be a good father and husband...

... what is she thinking.No, this is not a good idea.Absolutely not.

Audrey straightened her expression, took out her phone and started working.Clark looked up at her in bewilderment, and she gave her a glare.

It was impossible for her to let Clark know about that, and it was impossible for her to let Clark know what she was thinking just now.She's going to hide Brandon.

Clark was never going to find out he had a son.

Things are one size fits all.Audrey still took Clark to eat at the six-star restaurant Tony invested in.

Clark followed behind Audrey, seeing that Audrey entered the restaurant familiarly, the counter immediately came up to help Audrey get her coat and bag, and greeted her with various greetings.

Audrey ordered two bottles of wine first.

"Drinking on an empty stomach hurts your health." Clark said without thinking.

Audrey stared at Clark blankly.

Clark is serious and doesn't back down.

The two stalemate. 30 seconds later.

"...Champagne instead." Audrey turned her head and told the waiter.

Clark almost smiled.

"Don't think I didn't notice you snickering just because you lowered your head." Audrey said coldly, walking forward without looking back.

Clark pretended to push his glasses to hide his unbearable smile.Actually Audrey was pretty cute, he thought.

As a VIP, Audrey naturally has an exclusive box.This box can only be used by those whom Tony agrees to, referred to as Stark's exclusive box.

Clark suspected that he would never be able to enter such a high-end place in eight lifetimes, and he didn't dare to look at the price when ordering food—what's more frightening was that there was no price on the menu.Clark couldn't say a word, and Audrey decided everything.

"Won't make you pay," Audrey said, returning the menu to the waiter.

Clark hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry about your conscience," Audrey said again, squinting at Clark at the table, "I'll ask you to work overtime next."

Clark was speechless.So this meal is overtime pay...?

Thinking of what Audrey said about working overtime, Clark felt at ease, even a little sad.He would rather not eat a big meal than work overtime.However, the boss has the final say.

Audrey ate very little and drank more champagne.Clark noticed that the portions of Audrey's meals were indeed relatively small, almost enough for Audrey to finish.

"This is a restaurant invested by Tony." Audrey said, as if seeing through Clark's doubts, "it's almost as if Tony opened it. The chef knows us very well."

Clark didn't know what to do.

Audrey glanced at Clark, and couldn't help smiling because he was so obviously dazed.

This left Clark stunned.In every way, that smile made Clark's heart beat faster.

Audrey cast her gaze downstairs.The box they were in was located on the second floor, with a whole piece of opaque glass windows facing downstairs, they could see the situation outside, but from the outside, it was just a wall.

There is a double-sided LCD screen in the center of the first floor.It was noon, and the restaurant played the news for business people to watch.

Of course, the hottest news today is the incident at the Wayne Enterprises dinner yesterday.

Audrey propped her cheeks, stared sideways at the news screen, and shook the goblet in one hand.

Clark is still working on his meal.Audrey ordered a lot for him.Hopefully that doesn't mean he's working a lot of overtime.

"Will he regret it?" suddenly, Audrey asked.

Clark stopped, puzzled. "who?"

Audrey turned her head and stared at Clark, "Superman."

Clark didn't know why, so he watched the TV before he understood what Audrey meant.

"Why do you regret it?"

"He gave everything for this planet, and people responded by calling him a false god. Even the Metropolis shouted that they don't need Superman, and the winning report was written by his ex-girlfriend."

As Audrey said, she moved her gaze from Clark's face to the outside of the glass wall, "I hate rude people. Sometimes I believe that cruelty and ungratefulness are the nature of human beings."

"No." Clark frowned and looked at Audrey seriously, "No, Barnes. Human beings can still be kind."

Audrey glanced at Clark, her eyes were deep, and it was difficult to distinguish emotions.

"They didn't do it on purpose," Clark continued, looking down at the big screen downstairs, softly. "She just...they just didn't know what to do."

"You are so kind." Audrey raised her eyebrows.

Clark smiled and declined to comment.

Audrey raised her hand and poured a glass of champagne for herself and Clark. "Hope your thoughts are his thoughts," she said, pushing the champagne toward Clark. "Overtime."

Clark froze for a moment, then smiled wryly.

"I would love this glass of champagne if it wasn't for that reason."

"Drink this and go to work overtime."

"……Yes, sir."

Actually, Audrey wouldn't really let Clark work that much overtime.She just wanted to scare Clark.

And she paid too much overtime for Clark, okay?She's not a bad boss, and her company isn't a bad sweater.She is very nice.

The overtime that Clark is not expecting at all will come soon this weekend.

"...Sir, this is?!"

Clark was spooked again when Audrey passed by his desk and dropped a credit card just before she left work on Friday.

"Didn't you notice?" Audrey gave Clark a cold look, "You were taken over by me."

Clark's eyes widened.Clark froze.

"Just kidding." Audrey said again, still expressionless. "After get off work, go to the boutique street in the city center to buy a set of dinner clothes that you can see. I will attend Lex Luthor's banquet with me tomorrow."

"Luther?" Clark frowned.As soon as he heard the name, he thought of crime.

"Yes, Lex Luthor, that Lex Luthor. There is no doubt that six years ago, he was acquitted in the lawsuit against Superman before Superman was present to complete the lawsuit. He is now a clean and wealthy man. Money merchant, of course we have to attend his banquet.”

The author has something to say:

Accidentally, they are going to another banquet

Evil rich people...
