[Comprehensive] First Lady

Chapter 19 The captain and her; I will protect you in the future

"Did I say that? I'm a missing person in China." Holly said, staring down at the carpet. "It wasn't like that at first. I had wonderful parents who raised me with love and wisdom and took me on trips to different countries. . I was born in the Vatican, baptized and blessed by the Pope."

"In my eyes, the world is beautiful. I can play with the prince's pet lion in the jungle, or watch a fashion show in Milan with my mother. I like music, I like painting, I like colorful colors. I have many friends all over the world .”

"Until I was 16, my parents died in an accident that wasn't an accident. I didn't even get a chance to see their bodies."

Holly looked up, looking directly into Steve's eyes, tears streaming from the corners of them.

"I know who killed them, but I can't. My parents want relatives to protect me and send me back to China, but those people only care about inheritance. The funny thing is, they suspect each other that a certain brother or sister killed me My parents, for the money my grandparents left behind. They want me to disappear too. I'm not going to do what they want."

"So you fled to New York," Steve whispered.

"Yes." Holly nodded, wiped away her tears, and raised the corners of her mouth, "Actually, I'm not sure I'll find Wade and Wesley at all. I just want to live."

Steve frowned, pursed his lips, got up and walked over to Holly.

Holly sat cross-legged between the low table and the wardrobe.

"Don't be afraid," Steve said, crouching down and putting his arms around Holly. "I'll be there. I'll protect you."

Holly was stunned. "I don't...that's not what I mean."

Steve let go of Holly. "I know. I know you're not the kind of girl who waits for Superman."

Holly felt a little uncomfortable being watched by Steve.She turned her head away and pursed the corners of her lips.

"Don't you wonder how I found Wade? With Wesley?" she said, turning around and smiling at Steve. "And how did I meet T'Challa?"

Steve looked at Holly, and slowly curled the corners of his mouth. "I would like to know."

Holly briefly described how it took her at least a year to convince Wade to accept her as a cousin.All the painful and dangerous parts, she played lightly.

"...and then Wesley showed up, one day, all of a sudden."

"Wesley?"

"My other cousin. He's more normal, probably, at least than Wade. He's a killer, he can turn a bullet. I don't think there's anyone in the world he can't kill. He's been nice to me. He's my best friend."

"Oh."

"You seem a little dismissive."

"No, I didn't. What about T'Challa?"

"T'Challa...Actually, I can't remember, after all, it was more than ten years ago, and I was only in my teens."

Holly looked at the wall and thought. "My parents, they are very special researchers. Since I was born, I followed them back and forth between different countries and worked for an organization. I never understood what they were studying, and they didn't tell me."

Steve listened carefully, his face serious. "Then?"

"One year, we went to Wakanda." Holly glanced at Steve. "I don't know why we went there, it seems my parents and T'Challa's father were friends. We hid there for about eight years." months, and then my father insisted on leaving."

"why?"

"No idea. He said, don't let those people take advantage of his research. Since Wakanda, we've been to Switzerland, Iceland, Las Vegas. While in Wakanda, my mother did T'Challa's Teacher. We have lessons together, and I even teach him how to draw."

That's all they talked about.Holly was tired and fell asleep on the table.Steve carried her to the bed, quietly exited the room, and went to Tony's basement.

"Tony. I'm asking you."

"what?"

"Find out Holly's parents for me. I have a problem."

Reluctantly, Tony looks up from the messy, oddly shaped pile of metal that Steve can't see what's what, scrunches his face, and removes his goggles.

"Jarvis, call up the data." Tony called to the air.Then he turned his head and squinted at Steve.

"Yes, sir. 』

"Check her parents? What happened that made you suddenly want to do a financial investigation on Holly."

All the information about Holly's parents is projected in the air.

National researchers, a small house, a scooter, some deposits waiting to be inherited, and excellent assessment results.

It doesn't look like there is any problem.

"Civil servant, double-income family, the man's family is considered a prominent family in China." Tony spread his hands, "It's very common. We have investigated it a long time ago."

Steve pursed his lips and looked at Tony seriously.

"Really? Then let me ask you, Tony, how many ordinary families with double salaries of civil servants can take a child and travel to more than 13 cities in different countries in just [-] years?"

Tony was taken aback.

"Oh." Tony blinked his eyes and curled his lips, "Oh, that's really... not ordinary."

Steve raised an eyebrow, "Yes."

Tony set the goggles on the table and shrugged. "Well, she knows Prince Wakanda. This is indeed not an opportunity for a little girl from an ordinary civil servant's family."

"And we got one thing wrong."

said Steve, arms crossed, leaning against a wall stud, frowning slightly. "Her parents were not murdered because of inheritance issues. This ordinary civil servant couple fled to Wakanda with Holly 14 years ago, when Holly was 12 years old."

Tony frowned. "Do they know the king of Wakanda?"

"Yes. Holly's parents are friends with T'Challa's father."

"Oh."

Tony's face creased into an odd expression.With one arm folded and the other rubbing his chin, he looked suspiciously at the air, at the data about Holly's parents, and then at Steve.

"So we got the most important chronology wrong. The Holly family was hunted down before the inheritance issue arose. That's why they fled to Wakanda and took refuge with T'Challa's father."

Steve nods. "That's it."

"Then why did they leave Wakanda?"

"I don't know. Holly doesn't know either. She just remembers that her father said that the research results should not be used by some people."

Tony thought for a moment, gravely.

"Holly's father took his family out of Wakanda to protect the research. He could have kept Holly, but he didn't. Why?"

Steve shook his head. "I doubt it too."

"They fled all the way and were killed in the end. Holly was sent to China, and her father wanted the family to protect her. But his family didn't do that. Instead, they slandered Holly in order to fight for property. Am I right?"

"That's right. That's what she said."

Steve scowled, and Tony looked at each other.

So here comes the problem.Who are Holly's parents?What research did you do, and you need to be hunted down?On the way to escape, they took Holly to Switzerland. What does this mean?

"I'm going to check with Swiss Bank." Tony decided immediately. "Steve, I think you need to ask T'Challa. His father is friends with Holly's parents. Maybe he will know something."

"What did you think?" Steve asked.

Tony turned around, walked to the table, put his hands on the edge of the table, and lowered his head.

"I'm not sure. You ask T'Challa first."

Holly slept all the way until noon.

She woke up in the sun, showered sleepily, and almost walked out the door in her pajamas.Her luggage has been sent here, piled in the corner of the room, waiting for her to sort it out.

Holly walks to the restaurant and sees Wanda and Pietro discussing recipes and arguing about how to make a certain dish.

"I said don't put so many spices. And it said, it should add black vinegar!"

"Which one is black vinegar? Can wine vinegar be used instead? They should be similar."

Holly couldn't help laughing.

Wanda and Pietro stopped arguing and turned to look at her at the same time.

"Sorry." Holly raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips, "But black vinegar and wine vinegar are two completely different things."

Wanda rolled his eyes at Pietro, and bumped Pietro with his elbow, "I'll just say it."

Pietro clutched his stomach, pursed his lips, spread his hands, and left the kitchen area. "Then you do it yourself. I won't say anything."

"Pete!" Wanda stared, holding up the spatula to express her anger.

Holly walked over with a smile, "If you don't mind, let me help?"

Wanda looked at Holly, then at Pietro. "Oh. Thank you so much for that." She backed away, handing the stove to Holly.

The situation naturally evolved to Holly cooking while the twins looked on.When Steve came back from base with Sam and James, they were talking.

"...you couldn't add salt just now, but now. The order of adding salt is very important. Adding salt at the wrong time can ruin a dish."

"Shouldn't it be enough to add everything?"

"of course not."

"You're amazing, Holly. Your skills are on par with my mother's."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Hearing this conversation, James and Sam teasingly tap Steve on the shoulder.

"Bro! Lucky you. Your wife can hunt and cook too."

"That's not hunting. T'Challa said Holly was playing with his pet."

"Never mind. She can even draw!"

Steve rubbed his forehead. "Looks like this will stay with me for a while."

The three walked through the restaurant.Pietro noticed them first.

"Hey. Back?" Wanda waved.

Standing in front of the stove, Holly turned and smiled at Steve. "Do you eat spicy food?"

Steve nods.Sam looks to Pietro.Pietro has a mouthful of food and a piece of pie in his hand.

"Leave him alone, he's getting curry hot," Wanda explained. "Did Fury say anything?"

Steve was taken aback.Sam stared nervously at Wanda.

"Shhh!" James raised his index finger to his lips.

Wanda quickly lowered her head, pretending that she didn't ask any questions.

Holly looked around the crowd suspiciously, "Is there... something that is not suitable for me to hear? I can leave temporarily."

Everyone shook their heads immediately. "No! No, not at all."

Holly looked at them oddly. "Okay." She tilted her head and turned to continue cooking her dishes.

The author has something to say:

As the plot and word count increase, Holly's identity becomes less common.Honestly, I'm disappointed.

I really wanted to write a happy story about an ordinary girl dating the captain......

hateful.
