Chapter 15: 15. Peace

I was woken up the next morning by a crazy girl. My mind was in disarray, and it took me a few seconds to understand what was going on.

"You don't have an ounce of shame, the smell of this place is horrible and on top of that, you sleep sweaty and stinking. My nose is about to fall off my face from the smell.

Not to mention, you are his employee, how dare you try to rise even higher in status with such an attitude. We agreed to put our past behind us and try to live a better life, but you had to fall back into old habits."

Yelena was yelling at Ingrid, who looked as lost as I did.

"Yelena, please don't yell. Don't take a deep breath, you already made it clear that the place stinks, but calmly start explaining, what the hell are you talking about?" I ask, surreptitiously draping a sheet over my ready warrior.

She lets out a long breath. "No use hiding it, I've seen him more times than I can count." she says, and after realizing her mistake, continues as if nothing. "Ingrid is spreading her legs for you, trying to change jobs, or earn more."

She says, as if it were an ultimate truth.

"You were wrong Yelena, she was sexually frustrated and just asked for sex, which I gladly accepted." I answer directly, making the young blonde look at me in astonishment. I just turn to Ingrid.

"I hope I gave you at least a little hope. It wasn't my best performance, but I wasn't in a position to do better either." I mean it honestly, but I saw her face at peace.

"Then I'll have to wait for a better presentation, save one for me, please. But yes, I got what I wanted, thank you sir." she replies quietly, gathering her clothes and leaving.

I couldn't help but follow that floor. She is sexy, anyone who denies that needs to see a doctor urgently.

"So it was just asking?" Yelena asks, with a strange expression.

"Yes, whether or not I accept is another thing, but don't see me as a gigolo, for God's sake, I want to have at least one romance someday, not just casual sex. The world doesn't need a second Tony Stark." I respond quickly.

-------------------------------------------------- -----

After a nice shower, watched by the eyes of Yelena, who wasn't trying to hide, with the excuse of giving me today's schedule, a quick coffee and a short walk to the Baxter building.

Arriving there, the negotiations were quick, with Reed very interested in the plans he had started, but that, without worrying about appearance, I confirmed that I needed his special brain.

My changes meant that the group no longer saw me as just Doom, the unloved, bitter that a woman had left him for his best friend.

Now they saw Victor, a not-so-brilliant scientist, but with good ideas and the capital to fund them, not to mention, he was still a King at the end of the day.

Between comings and goings, after closing the deal, we chatted about the years we didn't see each other.

"And that was it, I managed to carry out the most important of my plans and now, seeing it from a new perspective, I started heading down a new path. Unfortunately, many do not accept it despite what they see, but I don't care.

I just want to be able to live my life in peace, enjoy it when I can, do a few things here and there to help anyone in need. Nothing better than that." I finish my 4 years without seeing them. Of course, hiding some essential things.

"I'm happy for you Vic, it's a really nice change indeed. I'm rooting for your success." Susan tells me, and I could see it in her eyes that she really wanted and wanted it.

"Thank you Su, this is really important to hear, even more so from you." I say, but there wasn't that old-fashioned malice, just a normal, simple thank you, the kind that friends usually do.

"You have my support too Vic, I always saw him, and will always see him as my good friend, even if sometimes, we might disagree on something." Reed raises his glass, toasting me.

"Thanks dude."

"We were never very close Victor, but I hope the best for you." Ben, the giant who will one day have a body of stone and a heart of butter tells me.

"Ben, I know how much I messed up, so I also know why we couldn't be good friends. I like your simplicity man, never change, and when you decide to get married, let me know, I'll give you the wedding and the party as a gift.

Just don't wrap the bride up too much ok?" I tease the big guy, and it's no joke, he's almost 7 feet tall and as wide as a wardrobe.

"To be quite honest, I'm still suspicious of you." this one, can only be Johnny.

"Never change man, or rather, change, but never stop distrusting me. I may have changed, but some crazy ideas can still come up you know." I joke, and apparently it wasn't very well done, because they looked at me strangely.

"Just kidding, calm down." I sigh.

It was a beautiful and wonderful Friday, and the streets of Money City were shining. NY had all kinds of options for those who wanted to have fun, and that's exactly what they were looking for today.

He was well accompanied, by 4 beautiful women, something to envy even Tony Stark.

The trio, Natasha, Yelena and Ingrid, each wore a beautiful evening gown, red for Natasha, blue for Ingrid, and black for Yelena. Melina, who held my arm, wore a short gray suit, jeans, and boots.

Exotic, but on her body it was stunning. The girls danced, drank, had fun and in the end, I took on the role of father in this one, accompanying Melina, who kept owling the girls.

We returned shortly after 3 am to the hotel, where we each went to our rooms and ended up sleeping.
