Chapter 45 Peggy Carter

In a room on the first floor of a manor outside London, a pair of young siblings listened attentively to the private teacher's lesson.

This pair of siblings was naturally the Maximov siblings who were just found by Frank in Sokovia not long ago.

After being nursed by a professional nutritionist, the two siblings still looked a little thin, but compared to the skinny appearance when Frank found them at the beginning, they were much better.

After several years of wandering life and the two who had just arrived in the UK, it was not suitable for them to go to school directly, so Tony also specially arranged a private teacher for them to help them integrate into their current life.

And the two siblings studied very seriously.

Born in 1989, they are actually no longer children, but real 14-year-old teenagers.

In a few countries, they are even considered adults.

Moreover, in the past four years, in the war-torn Sokovia, they have already seen all kinds of human warmth and coldness, life and death.

So their minds are actually very mature.

Knowing that for them now, seizing every opportunity to improve themselves is the most important thing.

Only when they have enough value, they will not become a burden that is despised by others like in Sokovia.

This is also the reason why they agreed without hesitation when Frank appeared in front of them and said that he would take them away from Sokovia.

Just like in the original time and space, they would volunteer to be Hydra's experimental subjects.

Is it just for revenge?

I'm afraid not.

More likely, it is out of despair of the social environment of Sokovia at that time and despair of life.

Due to the existence of Hydra, Sokovia in this world is far more chaotic and disordered than Kosovo in Levi's previous generation.

To use the words of Zemo, who was once a Sokovian soldier in Captain America 3, this country has long been hopeless.

"Why don't you go over and see them?" Levi looked at the twins who were studying hard in the classroom in a small forest far away from the window and asked Tony beside him.

"Forget it, it's not the time now. It's okay to see that they are in good condition!" Tony shook his head.

"In fact, you don't have to worry too much. The hatred in their hearts may not be as strong as we think." Levi comforted.

His words were not aimless.

There is still a difference between the hatred between the twins and Tony, and the hatred between Tony and Bucky.

Tony and Bucky, Bucky is still a knife that kills people after all. It is more or less understandable that Tony hates and hates him, and even wants to destroy him.

But in the case of the twins and Tony, Tony can only be regarded as a knife maker at most.

It is too far-fetched to seek revenge on the person who holds the knife, or even the knife itself, but on the person who makes the knife.

Levi thinks that the twins probably know this themselves.

That's why they showed mercy to the Avengers in the original plot.

Otherwise, the two of them fought against the Avengers several times, and there were too many opportunities to kill them.

Especially the first time in the Sokovia Castle, the moment Tony took off his battle suit, Wanda could easily kill him.

The situation in the following few times was similar.

And when he found out that his ally Ultron was really going crazy and wanted to destroy the world, he turned his back on him.

So overall, the two people's behavior was not like revenge at all, but a prank and a vent.

Venting their resentment of their unfortunate lives over the past decade.

The so-called revenge on Tony was more like finding a reason for the brother and sister to persist in living.

"It's getting late, it's not good to keep Ms. Carter waiting for a long time!" Tony ignored Levi's words, changed the subject directly, and then turned and left.

Tsk, dead tsundere!

Looking at Tony's back as he left, Levi curled his lips and muttered in his heart.

Then he looked at the twins again.

At this time, Wanda in the room seemed to have sensed something and looked over here.

But at this time, Tony had left Wanda's sight, and only Levi was left on the scene.

Seeing Wanda looking over, Levi also smiled at her, waved his hand, and then followed Tony's footsteps.

He was the real "benefactor" who helped the twins escape from the war-torn life, so there was naturally nothing to be taboo about.

…………

Half an hour later, Tony and Levi appeared outside another manor.

Although it was not as luxurious as Tony's manor, it was also beautiful and very suitable for the elderly to recuperate.

This was where Carter lived in seclusion after retirement.

However, Levi, who followed Tony, felt that this seemingly simple manor was not that simple.

After learning some magic from Ancient One, his intuition was much sharper than before.

But he still couldn't tell where it was not simple.

The two had made an appointment to see Carter.

Of course, the appointment must have been made with Tony. As the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the son of Carter's old friend Howard, Tony had a very good reason to see Carter - even though Tony had never met Carter before he met Levi.

As for Levi, who was he? How could Carter see him?

So now he was Tony's assistant.

And in many public occasions in the future, Levi would also appear in this capacity.

With Pepper's promotion, it was normal for Tony to hire another assistant.

Under the guidance of the servant, the two soon met Carter who was basking in the sun in the backyard.

Peggy Carter, born in 1921, is now 83 years old.

But she looked in good spirits, and she should not be confused like when Captain America met her in Captain America 2 (when the two met in Captain America 2, they chatted well at first, but after a cough, Carter became like she had just met Captain America).

After all, it was a full ten years since then.

However, Levi could not get close to Carter, and the servant signaled Tony to go alone.

Levi was also very tactful and stood still.

And Tony walked over by himself.

"Hello, Ms. Carter, it's our first meeting. I'm sorry that I haven't had the opportunity to visit you for so many years!" Tony came to the chair next to Carter and sat down, and greeted the old man very humbly.

"No, Tony, this is not the first time we meet... I held you in my arms when you were just born!" Looking at the face next to him that was 70% similar to Howard, Carter couldn't help but feel a little dazed, as if an old friend was sitting next to him again.

Tony was stunned when he heard this, he really didn't know.

"Of course, you didn't remember anything at that time, so you definitely don't have any impression, but I'm glad you can come to see me!" The old man said with a smile.

"In fact, Ms. Carter, I want to ask you for help with something - are you sure that our current conversation can be kept completely confidential?" Tony looked at the servants beside him, and then looked at the kind old man in front of him, and he was actually a little embarrassed.

The other party is so old, and it's not good to involve her?

But thinking of the death of his parents, he still said it with a stiff upper lip.

But just as Tony finished speaking, he found that the aura of the kind old man in front of him had changed.
