The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

What?

Hanging a mermaid on Tony's fishhook, is that considered a gift?

Just send it.

Isn't there a saying that says that a boss who doesn't care about his subordinates is not a good boss.

Lake felt that he was still a good boss, he gave Tony Stark a chance to be an Ophiuchus, normal people, not to mention anything else, it is possible to say hello once a day.

But what about Tony?

If you don't come, you won't come, and Lake doesn't blame Tony. There is an old saying that a fool will find the reason from others, but a smart person will find the reason from himself.

so……

Lake thought about it, maybe he didn't care enough for his subordinates, just happened to send him a mermaid to take advantage of his subordinate's fishing time, to care for his subordinates.

Perfect.

Lake raised his eyebrows, and drove back home with his mind on two things.

Rachel is still predicting the relationship between Christine and Strange. To put it simply, Rachel is very sure that it is difficult for Strange, who has directly cut off his own food guy in a car accident, to live with him. The romance with Kristen continued.

the reason is simple.

Love is like a scale, men and women stand at one end, although many young people are not at peace, but it is not so that one end is raised high and the other end is dead.

In the past, Strange and Christine belonged to both ends of the balance being off the ground.

But right now?

The balance of Strange who lost his eating guy was directly suppressed.

Lake thought about it, but gave up, and told Rachel that he did this.

no need.

From the current point of view, Lake seems to have tricked Strange, but time will eventually prove that Lake actually gave Strange a chance.

If we followed Weissanti's investigation procedure, not to mention how long it would take to pull Strange over, what if after a long time of investigation, he felt that the person was not suitable?

Wei Shandi is not in a hurry, but Lake is in a hurry.

My golden saint is outside looking after other gods all day, what is this called?

so……

Lake made a move.

only.

Three months later, Rachel suddenly became busy.

Just as Rachel predicted.

Strange and Christine blow.

No, Rachel went to comfort Christine from time to time, and this time today, she specially invited Christine to her home to comfort her while cooking a big meal.

It's just that, when Rachel heard about Christine's schedule today, she looked at Christine speechlessly and said, "He's already bewildered, why are you still rushing up?"

Lake sat on the sofa not far away, sipping his own glass of wine, and by the way, looked at the physics paper written by the little padded jacket Helen yesterday.

Although he couldn't understand it, Lake thought it was great.

Twelve-year-old Helen was admitted to Princeton University by leapfrogging grades, and her apprentice was a master in physics.

Although Lake has always looked down on technology, but if his daughter likes it, Lake likes it.

so……

Lake didn't pay too much attention to the conversation between Rachel and Christine, and was still in the video call with his daughter Helen.

However, for what Rachel said, Strange was already in a daze, and Lake still heard about it.

well known.

Doctors in the Federation belonged to a high-income group. What's more, Strange was also a surgeon with a high reputation. There was no doubt that his annual salary was beyond the reach of many people.

but……

The tuition fees for medical students are also high. Moreover, Strange is a typical federal man. Simply speaking, he is overspending.

In fact, logically speaking, even if Strange's hands have problems now, if you save a little bit, you can still live for two or three years, but just as Rachel said, Strange is a stronger person So much so that he spent countless efforts in this short three months to find a good medicine that could heal his hands.

Let's put it this way.

Three months ago, Strange's luxury apartment was filled with watches and luxury items.

Three months later, Strange's luxury apartment was empty enough to run a horse.

That's the price.

Lake has no psychological burden at all for the situation he caused, everything needs a price, and Strange, who wants to become Doctor Strange, needs to pay the current price.

Christine covered her cheeks, and listened to Rachel's complaint with some helplessness: "I persuaded him to give up, but he didn't want to."

Rachel took out the freshly baked steak and handed it to Christine. When Christine turned to put the steak on, she shook her head and said, "Last month, Stephen's Stark Bank credit card was charged twice. It's 150,000, and the bank's risk control department is ready to take measures."

The reason why it hasn't been adopted is entirely because Rachel has said hello.

But it is definitely impossible for Rachel to help Stephen out of this amount of money.

The reason why Rachel said hello was because Christine asked her to come to her. Rachel only talked to the bank's risk control department for Christine's sake.

As for why Stark Bank agreed, the relationship between the big boss's fiancée and Rachel is there. Dare you agree to give it a try? Don't you want to do it?

Kristen gave Rachel another apologetic look: "I'm sorry."

Rachel waved her hand: "Twenty-five thousand is a small amount to me, I don't care, but, to you, Christine, what do you tell me now, you have to guarantee twenty-five thousand for Stephen Wan, let him undergo an operation with a success rate of basically zero, please, are your brains burned out?"

You are his girlfriend, and you are also the ex-girlfriend who was called out by Stephen some time ago.

Christine fell silent.

Lake, who was sitting on the sofa over there, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked up at Rachel: "Actually, I think Christine can lend Stephen 250,000."

"What?"

The two girls who were saying this turned to look at Lake who suddenly made a sound on the sofa.

Kristen gave a grateful smile.

but……

She has no money.

Although she is also a surgeon and also performs operations, her reputation is not as high as Strange's. Naturally, although her salary is very objective, it is still difficult for her to take out 250,000 all at once. Those who have more than enough but not enough.

The most important thing.

Christine didn't come to borrow money for Rachel this time, after all, she wasn't that cheap, and after being yelled at by Strange a few times, she was still in a hurry.

She just came here today to complain and complain to her good friend.

so.

Christine smiled at Lake's proposal, thanked him, and then waved his hands and said, "Actually, I don't like the operation either, but Stephen was really dazzled by his hands, and he even started to tinker with them." Those occult studies."

Lake said with a smile: "This shows that he is not pedantic."

Pity.

Doing occultism in New York, have you asked him?

hehe.

Not to mention, Weissandi has already started to turn the gears of the heir. Even without the incident of Weissandi, it would be impossible for Strange to tinker with occultism in New York.

No demon or angel would respond to Strange.

In New York, there are no demons.

There are a few demons in New Jersey next door, but yesterday, when the Underworld Police Department dispatched for the first time, they had captured those demons back to hell, and then put them directly into purgatory to extract dark energy.

In the middle of the night.

Satisfied, Rachel turned over, got up from the bed, wrapped herself in her pajamas, and walked towards the bathroom.

after awhile.

Rachel came out of the bathroom, and after getting into bed, she looked at Lake curiously: "What about Strange, did you do it?"

Lake, who was enjoying the happy aftertaste just now, raised his eyebrows and looked at Rachel: "Am I really an open book for you?"

So does Hermione.

But Rachel.

Am I not as mysterious as I imagined?

Rachel said: "If this matter has nothing to do with you, you will never intervene, and you will never say that lending Strange $250,000 is a very good deal."

Strange is dead.

As a surgeon, it turns out that he can no longer hold a scalpel, isn't it useless?

For any bank, even for loan sharks, at this moment, lending money to Strange is almost money that cannot be seen back.

Throwing money into the pool can still make a sound.

But lending money to Strange is basically equivalent to doing charity. No, it's not doing charity. Even if it is charity, no one will do it for no reason.

Therefore, in terms of Strange's current state, unless you have inside information, you will never say it. This is a bargain.

Lake listened to Rachel's analysis, looked at Rachel's expression, smiled and said: "Why, if I really have inside information, will you tell your good friend Christine not to give up on Strange?"

"No."

Rachel shook her head and said, "Hearing what you said, I feel even more that Christine is going to give up Strange."

Lake looked at Rachel curiously.

Rachel said: "Strange's life attitude is different from Christine's. Before, the two got together because of the office. If they continue to work in the office, they can be together, although they won't be together. We have been together for a long time, but now, Strange is directly bewildered because of his hands, one has two, but I am very curious about what Strange will become."

Lake listened to Rachel's analysis, touched his chin, and then looked at Rachel: "Strange is the person who was appointed by Vissandi to take over the position of the supreme mage. The reason why Strange became like this , but it’s the price to pay for all this.”

Rachel was slightly taken aback: "Will Strange be the next Supreme Sorcerer?"

Lake Ha smiled, and said to Rachel: "The Supreme Sorcerer is just the ancient one. The Supreme Sorcerer's name is too big for Strange to hold. At best, he is a Doctor Strange."

Rachel: "..."
