"Seriously, while this new Gwen is really great, but Peter... You have to think carefully about your future development... Because I think you may not be able to support her. "

Diane sat on the sofa in her study, still not quite believing what she had seen before...

In the party that just ended, Diane arranged enough food for fifty people, and the main thing was a waste, but she never expected that such a large amount of food would be eaten by Gwen alone.

She looked at Gwen who was lying on her lap humming, poked her smooth lower abdomen with her fingers, and then put her entire palm up, but no matter how she stroked Gwen's belly, it was flat.

"So she has a black hole in her stomach?"

Peter glanced at the black ring on Gwen's finger, and already had an answer in his heart, after all, one of the biggest features of the symbiote thing is that it will make the host into an extremely edible stomach king, fortunately, the possessed Gwen is still easy to deal with, and only eating ordinary food can be satisfied.

Diane, on the other hand, didn't really want to understand the real reason behind it, she lost interest in Gwen's good appetite after marveling for a while, she wanted to ask someone to send Gwen back to her room, but with Gwen's gradually smooth breathing, Diane had to let Gwen continue to sleep on her lap.

At this time, Wanda and Pietro brothers and sisters have returned to the villa to rest, and Medei Parker, who has just received a new name, has been taken away by Diane's servants to take care of, and now in the study except for the three of them, there is only a somewhat bored Felicia who leans calmly against the window.

In addition to starting the "stolen goods" meeting, several of them gathered here to discuss plans for the future, and Felicia naturally wanted to participate, after all, the reason why she stayed here was to cooperate with Peter to defeat and kill Murdoch and Fisk.

The meeting was supposed to take place before their welcome banquet, but it was put on hold because Peter rushed to the rescue of Gwen.

Diane, who was already a little sleepy, didn't bother to explain too much, she beckoned a red-haired beauty who had been waiting outside the study, and put it in front of Peter with a stack of materials.

"Trading continues, so the exact earnings cannot be accurately calculated, and you are in front of the amount you have earned so far with your money."

It's just that Peter's attention is not on the earnings report in front of him, but on the back of the departing red-haired beauty, thoughtful.

Although his appearance is a little younger than the image in the movie, the iconic red hair and the delicate appearance made Peter immediately recognize the true identity of this red-haired beauty...

S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Natasha Romanoff, codenamed "Black Widow".

Although it is similar in positioning to Hawkeye without superpowers, as one of the original Avengers, coupled with the beauty blessing of actor Scarlett Johansson, the former Red House female agent is quite popular.

Although he immediately recognized the identity of the other party, Peter couldn't figure out why she was here at this time, and according to the plot of the movie, shouldn't she have joined Stark Industries and become an employee of the legal department?

No... She really doesn't need to appear in Stark Industries now, after all, the reason she is there in the movie is not only to find out how Tony Stark escaped, but also to ensure that Tony does not join the Ten Rings in exchange for a chance to survive, and then to continue to lurk for the Avengers plan.

But now with Sharon, Tony's childhood sweetheart, there is no need to send an agent around the road to spy on him, and if there is any problem, let Sharon ask directly, if not, let Sharon beat Tony to ensure that he will explain everything.

But is she here to observe herself? Or because of Gwen? Or was it because of the lizard serum that Harry had tracked down before?

"Gwen is still here."

Just when Peter was puzzled, Diane suddenly interrupted Peter's train of thought, her fingers drew a moving curve on Gwen's body, and then said with a smile:

"Besides, she is not for sale, and her inner talent is more amazing than her appearance, and I can't do without her for the time being."

Having said that, Diane's expression was quite playful, and it was clear that there was some deep meaning in her words.

Ben also wanted to remind Diane's Peter that he was not talking, Diane seemed to have a certain understanding of the identity of this legendary female agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Natasha, and she should have been on guard, and the reason why this spy continued to lurk here probably had its own purpose.

That being the case, Peter wasn't going to get involved in disrupting Diane's plans, just take precautions.

Peter turned his attention to the earnings report in front of him, but the dense data on it gave Peter a headache, and he had to raise his head to look at Diane, waiting for the other party's explanation.

Diane starts directly with the conclusion.

"The money you have earned for us has far exceeded the estimated income, which can fully support the plan you mentioned earlier, and the funds you have personally earned so far have exceeded 90 million, and there are still 45 million left after paying taxes..."

“..."

Looking at Peter's heartache expression, the corners of Diane's mouth rose slightly.

"That's right, welcome to the world of adults."

Then Diane pointed to the document in Peter's hand and happily introduced:

"Based on your crazy love of gold, I am already buying gold for you, but the time and cost will gradually increase as the number of acquisitions increases.

The other part is invested in the package you provide to ensure that the first phase of the plan can be implemented smoothly.

As for the part that cannot be spent temporarily, because you have given me full responsibility, so I have put an investment manager in charge of running this part of the funds for you, and his salary and other details are in the documents you have in hand. "

Without even looking at it, Peter simply threw the document in his hand on the table next to him, no longer reading the report comparable to the Book of Heaven, and then asked seemingly casually:

"So you agreed to support my plan?"

Diane showed an embarrassed expression for the first time, she pursed her lips, put her hand on Gwen's short shoulder-length hair and gently stroked, watching Gwen squeeze comfortably into her arms before Diane confessed:

"I'm actually still hesitating, in fact, even if many of your predictions have indeed come true, there are also many consequences of Ni's intervention, I need to be responsible for my family, and we are also facing our own crisis."

If it had been in the past, Peter would have thought that Diane was tactfully rejecting himself, but after spending so long with Diane and experiencing many events, Peter has also gained some growth.

If Diane wants to refuse, she will never use this ambiguous attitude, she may have some feelings for the other party, but she will clearly express her refusal with an attitude that will never let others misunderstand.

And now Diane's appearance basically only represents one meaning...

"Gotta add money."

Of course, this extra money is not money in the literal sense, and what Diane needs is naturally what Peter is best at.

Peter frowned slightly, while Diane continued to stroke Gwen in her arms and said without guilt:

"It's not that I'm temporarily raising the price, after all, the benefits you just brought to the family have far exceeded our imagination, if I can, I want to award you a medal for making money, the reason why I can't support your plan immediately is not that I don't want to, but can't."

After speaking, Diane looked in the direction that Natasha had just left.

"I guess you already know the background identity of my new personal secretary, right?"

"Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Seeing that Diane took the initiative to mention this matter, Peter also directly and clearly reminded:

"And she is not an ordinary agent, she can be regarded as the top group, she should be regarded as the trump card of S.H.I.E.L.D. in terms of spying intelligence or infiltration."

"It looks like they really value us..."

Diane's expression did not feel the slightest sense of nervousness.

"I have long been prepared for the leakage of information, otherwise how could I open such an important position as personal secretary to the outside world for recruitment? I think S.H.I.E.L.D. understands that, so we're just using each other now. "

Dai paused and pulled out a necklace from her clothes, and on the necklace was an anchor made of some kind of alloy, and on the anchor were nine snake heads with different appearances.

Diane pulled out the family crest of the Bernano family, and as proof of the members of the Bernano family, each family member had the same necklace, and Peter, who was an honorary member, also had one.

As early as when he first got the necklace, the logo on it had made Peter wonder if the Bernano family was connected to the famous villain organization Hydra in Marvel, but in subsequent contact, Peter thought that the two just used similar logos, but now it seems that he misjudged.

"They get intelligence, and we exchange it for a moment of peace..."

"For a moment... Peacefulness? "

The words Diane used made Peter feel that things were getting weirder, and he realized that the crisis facing the Bernano family might be more dangerous than he thought, and then he glanced at Felicia by the window and Gwen in Diane's arms, and Diane shook his head slightly.

"Don't worry, it's not great intelligence."

Although it is not information that can be revealed at will...

Diane caressed Gwen's face, looking at her slightly moving eyelashes, and vaguely remembered how Gwen looked when she said "I envy you so much" before leaving.

Who made you make a wish...

Diane sighed lightly, then she pinched her eyebrows, and continued with a little tiredness:

"What's more, I also need every help I can win now, not to mention that Felicia is no longer an outsider, and during this period of turmoil in the church, I also dare to say that a S.H.I.E.L.D. person is by my side because of her presence."

Felicia directly took out the necklace exactly the same as Diane's hand from her arms, and then said calmly:

"Considering that we all have different needs and overlapping goals, joining the Bernano family is an acceptable choice for me."

Peter just nodded in understanding, then sighed.

He probably already understood that the enemy Diane was dealing with was the Hydra Organization, and her so-called moment of tranquility was to use Hydra's hostile organization, S.H.I.E.L.D., to suppress the other party's actions, but Diane didn't know that if it was the same as the plot of the movie, the current S.H.I.E.L.D. should actually be called Serpent Shield more appropriately.

In addition to Director Nick Fury, only a few elite agents with heads and faces are loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D., and others, including the upper leadership of S.H.I.E.L.D., have long defected to Hydra.

The content of traitors in S.H.I.E.L.D. is probably only comparable to that of the Men in Black organization in Conan...

And the timeline at this time is still in the early days of the birth of Iron Man, the Avengers don't even have a shadow, Hydra is almost in its heyday, if you fight against it at this time...

And Diane also saw Peter's concerns and said softly:

"Don't worry, if I need you to fight the entire Hydra Organization, it's not enough to pay the entire family.

We are not hostile to Hydra, we had formed an alliance before the Second World War, when Mussolini came to power, and today we have little contact, but we have a good relationship, at least for a long time we have been a relationship of non-interference and assistance when necessary.

The reason why this situation has turned into this situation now is only because the operation of the fucking fool has disrupted the situation and even affected Hydra's plan, resulting in a conflict of interest between us, and our respective solutions cannot be agreed by both sides.

Of course, if our family's strength is still strong, they probably won't be so pressed step by step, but now we have been hit hard twice, with a lot of industry and funds, but in terms of force, we have taken the initiative to strip off our own strength, and we can't get the support of the church, and the arrangement at the top is also messed up by that fool.

All in all, our family is now like a treasure that has lost the guardian of the dragon, and now there are many people who are eager to move on us, Hydra is just the biggest force, and I have to expand my influence to make more forces notice us, and lead them into the game to maintain this fragile balance. "

"So what do you want me to do?"

"Expand your influence as Batman, many people now see you as the protector of our family, as long as you continue to fight the forces that spy on us, it will make them more or less scruple, and this will buy me time."

And Felicia had a long-lost smile on her face.

"And the best target is Fisk, who once attacked the Bernano family and has not yet recovered."

Diane nodded, agreed with Felicia's statement, and then whispered:

"Destroy Fisk, strike Hydra's tail if necessary, and I will fully cooperate with your plan and take the lead with you."

Then Diane showed another bad smile, and then mischievously traced the finger that caressed Gwen's cheek across her lips, and said in a strange tone:

"Besides, if we hadn't resisted Hydra's pressure and become their vassal, your plan would have fallen into their hands, and you wouldn't want to... Yikes! "

Before the words were finished, with a soft sound of "Oh", Diane retracted her fingers like an electric shock, she glanced at the crystal of her fingertips, and then looked at Gwen angrily, and shouted:

"Peter! Take care of your sister! This girl is crazy! "

Gwen licked his lips defiantly, then straightened up, stretched, and then said in a lazy voice:

"I'm going to join too."

As soon as these words came out, several people fell silent, and Diane, who was the most lacking in manpower, did not look happy.

And Peter directly shook his head and refused:

"Gwen, not this time."

"Peter, I'm not asking for your permission."

"You don't understand, Gwen..."

Peter sighed, he avoided topics like this if he could...

"Gwen, this mission is not as simple as catching the villains, we will most likely need to kill some people and take their lives."

"Of course I can guess, I'm not a child, don't forget that I'm two days older than you, although I can't kill people, but I also have to follow you, at least I won't get in the way."

"But..."

"Listen to me after Peter."

Gwen's face was calm, but the emotion in her eyes was as intense as a storm.

"You used to do a lot of things without me, and the last time I didn't notice it, you ended up turning yourself into a lizard..."

"That's not your fault..."

"That's right, that's all to blame."

Gwen glared at Peter fiercely, then lowered his head.

"But it's enough for something like that to happen once...

Not long ago, right here, Diane asked me what I was afraid of, and there were many, many things popping up in my head, and only one thing scared me the most...

I'm afraid of losing you again..."

Gwen raised her head to gaze into Peter's eyes.

"Peter... Take me, I really don't want to attend your funeral again. "

“..."

What else could he answer? Peter even wanted to escape Gwen's intense gaze for a moment.

And at this moment, Diane, who had secretly entered the theater mode with a wine glass with the Felicians, said softly with some irritability:

"What are you waiting for?! Kiss her quickly! "

And Felicia on the side asked with a hint of fear in her confusion:

"What do you mean to participate again?"
