Upon hearing the name, Tony's expression finally turned serious, as if he were recalling something. He said, "Um, a very hot lady. I remember her plants, the kind that explode."
Pepper was utterly speechless and said, "Tony, you're hopeless."
Killian waved his hand and said, "Pepper, let me do it."
“Tony Stark, I used to admire you a lot. You were a guy with a complete business plan, long hair, and a limp. You promised us that we would have a chat in 907.”
Long-forgotten memories began to resonate in Tony's mind.
Tony managed to recall some of the events of that time and said, "I'm sorry, so are you here to get revenge on me?"
Listening to Tony's insincere apology.
Killian burst out laughing again and said, "So, all you have to say is 'I'm sorry,' right?"
“Pepper is absolutely right, you really are the biggest jerk in the world.”
"You bastard, even if you wanted to break our promise, you could have just had someone notify you. Why did you trick me into going to the rooftop and making me wait like an idiot all night?"
Do you know how desperate it is to be deceived and insulted, to cry like an ant in the wind and snow?
The more Tony listened, the more serious his expression became.
However, Iron Man's pride would never allow Tony to show it.
Sin ah.
Tony, expressionless, said, "Do you want me to compensate you?"
Tony swore that he absolutely wanted to say a sincere 'I'm sorry' to Killian and then genuinely make amends to him.
But the words coming from Tony's mouth sounded like a taunt.
In an instant, Killian's face turned cold.
Pepper felt a headache coming on and said, "Killian, I'm sorry, but Tony is spoiled. He didn't mean any harm..."
Chapter 373 Tony Stark's Judgment Day
Without a doubt, this was the most embarrassing and awkward moment for Tony Stark since he became Iron Man.
Faced with Killian's accusations and Pepper's defense.
Tony's silence was his last act of defiance.
If Killian hadn't become the person he is today, with less of the resentment in his heart, Tony might have faced a terrible disaster.
Under Pepper's coordination.
Tony, feeling embarrassed and awkward, finally apologized to Killian.
At this moment, Killian played a trick on Tony, saying, "No need for an apology."
"Let me reintroduce myself. I am Aldridge Killian, Chairman of MCU Biotechnology, a subsidiary of the Sullivan Group, a partner of Maya Hansen, and the chief researcher of Project Extremis."
"In fact, I was also invited by Ms. Pepper to be a guest at the technology exhibition."
In the end, Killian gave Tony the middle finger.
A flame shot into the sky from that middle finger.
Tony's expression had turned deathly pale at this point.
But just before Tony could explode...
Killian's flame, like a signal, was followed by a streak of light in the sky that resembled a shooting star.
Immediately afterwards, an even thicker and more imposing red and blue steel armor landed on the ground.
Tony: "..."
This is not my own horse.
But it also feels like my own horse.
Just as Tony was completely bewildered and was about to ask Jarvis,
The red and blue visor of the suit popped open, and Ivan Vanko, with a toothpick dangling from his mouth, arrogantly declared with the air of a Russian bear: "Tony Stark, you're an arrogant, despicable, stupid, and repulsive thief."
“You Stark family are all damned thieves.”
“I, Ivan, son of Anton Vanke, have come to honor the Vanke family.”
"Let's duel, you damned thief!"
"puff!"
Ivan Vanko's plan was much more brutal and direct than Killian's; he spat out a toothpick, which hit Tony's Iron Man armor and bounced off.
Tony: “…¨々…”
"Damn it, who are you? You're slandering the Stark family's honor..."
clap clap!
Just as Tony was about to retort and say something...
Killian clapped his hands lightly, immediately drawing everyone's attention again.
Tony's face darkened as he looked at Killian and said, "Damn it, it's you again. What are you up to now? I've already been tricked enough. My patience is running out."
Killian shrugged and said, "Sorry, I just wanted to help my colleague present some evidence."
Tony's face darkened like the bottom of a pot. "Ivan Vanko? Your colleague?" he asked.
Ivan Vanko said with a proud look, "That's right, I, Ivan Vanko, am the chief designer of space mechs at Sullivan Corporation, and His Majesty Rein's second follower and loyal dog!"
Tony: "..."
You've been treated like a dog, where does your pride come from?
He's the second most loyal dog!
It was a spectacular show that left everyone mesmerized.
During the normal course of events, Air Force Colonel James Rhodes, who had barely spoken until now, became curious and interjected for the first time: "Hey, buddy, who is His Majesty Rein's number one follower, number one loyal dog?"
"What do you think of me? I'm very capable, the Air Force's top marksman..."
Just as James was muttering to himself...
Tony roared, "James!"
James gave an awkward smile and said, "Tony, believe me, I just admire His Excellency Ryan. Of course I support you. We're good friends, aren't we?"
Tony's expression softened slightly.
Then, Tony looked at Killian and Ivan Vanko and said, "What evidence do you have? If it's slander, you will pay the price. The Stark family's honor cannot be desecrated."
Faced with Tony's threat.
Ivan Vanko popped another toothpick into his mouth and gave a disdainful sneer.
Killian, on the other hand, had an indifferent expression and snapped his fingers.
Immediately afterwards, Zola controlled the back-end system and projected a 3D display screen onto the night sky, showing a very original design diagram of the Arc Reactor.
Below the design drawing, the names of Howard Stark and Anton Vanko were clearly written.
At the same time, there are photos of Anton Vanko being deported by America, and evidence of Howard Stark connecting with S.H.I.E.L.D. and tampering with the Arc Reactor patent.
After witnessing these scenes, Tony was on the verge of a breakdown.
"No, this is impossible, my father..."
"It turns out that your father was a thief who stole the honor that originally belonged to the Vanke family."
"No, that's not it. It's because of damn politics, because of the bipolar power struggle. Your father was expelled from America. If it were registered under your father's name, the Arc Reactor blueprints would be worthless. America at that time would not have allowed it..."
"And then what happened? After the battle for supremacy ended, didn't you still seize the glory that belonged to the Vanke family?"
"No, of course not, my father, he... he just had an accident!"
After saying that, Tony seemed to collapse, his energy almost completely dissipated.
Even Ivan Vanko and Killian were stunned.
In the end, Tony's depravity and bastard behavior in 1991 had its reasons, and it's not impossible that he was trying to escape the death of his parents.
Whether it's being a complete bastard who plays around with women or standing up Killian.
They still forgot about the attribution rights to the Ark Reactor and usurped the reputation of the Vanke family.
All of this is actually related to the death of Howard Stark.
And look at Tony's frustrated expression.
Killian and Ivan Vanko exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat bored.
Without a doubt, this is a terrible debt.
Tony Stark was a bastard back then, that's absolutely true, but he was also a pitiful person. He may have caused some harm to Killian and Ivan Vanko, but it was all unintentional.
In this situation, whether or not to retaliate becomes meaningless.
While everyone was looking at each other in bewilderment, they began to discuss the matter.
