Night falls.

The red carpet at the entrance of the Victor Industrial Building, which is 86 floors high, has been laid out, and is happy to welcome guests from all over the world to attend the dinner.

The statue of Victor at the entrance of the building has also been completed.

Very beautiful!

In a black suit, Lake, wearing a golden silk edge without any degree glasses, stood in front of the statue, looking up at the statue, which was two and a half meters high, and praised.

On his star Rees, he has a peak carved in his appearance.

but……

Lake always felt that his high mountain statues seem to be less famous than these two and a half meters tall statues.

Who made his statue inside the star core of Rees?

no way.

Because the statue on Reese is Lake's true appearance and is in a respect for his privacy, Lake has never intended to let the smart creatures on Reese see it...

Lake imagined, withdrew his gaze, put his hands in his pocket, and walked onto the red carpet.

"Jess."

"Sir, sir."

"Just!"

"… Found it, please come in, Mr. Jace."

"Thanks!"

Lake nodded to the Baoquan who checked his identity at the door with a smile, and walked into the building under the flashing of various spotlights.

For the reporters around the red carpet, the guests who can attend the joint cocktail party of Victor and Stark are either powerful or rich, but it is not important to know or not. What is important is that if you kill and not let go, you will be right to take a photo.

"Look!"

"Tony Stark's secretary."

"Peper Potz."

"Ms. Potz, will Mr. Stark appear today?"

"Ms. Potz..."

Listening to the movement behind, Lake turned around and saw Pepper Pots, holding a clutch and wearing a slim dress, passing through the spotlight battle formation with a smile on his face.

Victor, who was personally receiving everyone from the throne statue in the hall, saw Pepper Pots' arrival and greeted him with a smile.

"Ms. Potz."

"Mr. Fang Du."

After shook hands with Pepper, Victor took out a glass of champagne from the tray of the servant next to him and handed it over and said, "I think Mr. Stark shouldn't come."

Pepper smiled and said, "Fang Du..."

Victor smiled and said, "Just call me Victor."

Pepper changed his words: "Victor, you're wrong. In fact, Tony is on the way to this side from Kendine Airport."

Victor was surprised and said, "I thought Stark had never liked such a utilitarian banquet."

Pepper shrugged, "But there are beauties at this banquet, aren't it?"

Victor laughed.

After a while, after inviting Pepper to the party and chatting for a few words, Victor said goodbye and left. After all, he still needed to entertain other distinguished guests from Wall Street.

Pepper stood quietly with champagne, talking to the noble ladies who came to say hello with a smile.

As a qualified administrative assistant, Pepper said she was at ease about this scene.

but……

Pepper was a little embarrassed about Tony's presence and Tony's desire to communicate with Victor later.

Since the mysterious appearance of Zeus pointed out something, in Pepper's opinion, Tony's emotions have been in a not-so-great state.

But this is understandable. Anyone knows that their parents did not die in a car accident, but died in assassination, and that would be like this...

Zeus?

Who is it?

Pepper sighed in his heart, staring at the energetic Victor over there frowned slightly.

Just then.

"Hi!"

"……Hello."

Pepper's eyes flashed, and he looked back at the formulaic smile of the handsome blonde man in front of him, and reached out and said, "Peper Potz."

Lake shook hands: "Jess."

Tentacles are all part of it.

Lake raised Bourbon in his hand: "Peper Potz, I have long admired the name."

Pepper formulates a smile.

What does it mean in New York City?

The beauty around Tony Stark changed one at half a day, but only Pepper Potts was consistent from the beginning.

After several conversations, Pepper touched the champagne on his hand with Bourbon on Lake's hand. Pepper asked curiously: "So, tell me, Mr. Jace's profession..."

Lake smiled and said, "A little investor who is not very famous."

Pepper nodded thoughtfully: "So, Mr. Jace is an investor in Victor Industry?"

Lake thought for a while and said, "To be precise, I look at people investing."

Pepper asked, “Is there any difference?”

Lake smiled and said, "I invested in people, not the so-called market value. There is an old saying in the East Country that if you choose to preserve the land, the land is preserved, but the person dies, then it will be over! If the land is lost, but the person is still there, then nothing is lost!"

Pepper said in a difficult-to-mouthed Eastern Mandarin: "If you have land and lose people, you will lose people; if you have land and lose people, you will get them?"

This time it was Lake's turn to be surprised: "Ms. Potz knows it too?"

Pepper smiled and said, "The East is a market with great potential."

Lake smiled: "That's the reason, so I invest, and I have chosen the next investment target."

"oh?"

Pepper curiously said, "If it's convenient, can you ask, who got Mr. Jace's eye?"

"Tony Stark."

“…”

Lake looked at Pepper who was slightly lost, turned his head and looked at Victor who had come in from the door and Tony Stark with a mustache beside him, turned around and smiled at Pepper in front of him, "Look aside, Ms. Pepper Potz."

After saying that.

Lake held the Bourbon in his hand and merged into the crowd.

Potz turned to his head and looked back.

Lake...

There is no trace of it.

"Peper..."

"Peper!"

Pepper came back to his senses, looked at Victor and her boss Tony who had already walked in front of him, and asked directly at Victor: "Victor, do you know a Mr. Jace who is said to be your investor?"

Victor was slightly stunned and shook his head and said, "Sorry, there are many people who invest in Victor Industry, especially after Victor's market value recovers."

Pepper shook his head and said, "No, Mr. Jace said, he is your investor, not Victor Industry."

Victor shook his head in a little uncertain, "Sorry, I don't quite understand."

Pepper turned around and stared at the direction Lake had just walked, trying to find Lake's trace without any notice. Her boss seemed to have something extra in her unstable state.

Victor looked at his watch and said to Tony Stark next to him, and walked not far away.

Wait until Victor walks away.

Tony Stark said in a deep tone with a expressionless face: "Ms. Potz, you are ignoring your boss, and it's because of another man."

Pepper came back to his senses: "I think I just met Zeus."
