Chapter 23: Chapter 23:Confronting Truths

James shrugged, "I seems to be awake, but why does it feels like am dreaming . Why am I in your house."

"do not you remember?"

"..."

"Okay," Gwen put down his breakfast and told James how he got to her last night.

"...Do you know that I was almost scared to death by you. You looked terrifying at the time, but after I got you in this morning, I found that there were no scars on your body. Where did the blood come from? "

James lowered his head, and he realized that his wounds were healed without knowing when he fell. The arm and thigh muscles that he strained when he fell last night still had some pain, but they recovered almost the same, but the cosmic energy in his body was not. It was still empty.

Gu Gu...

The belly rang, James squeezed all the breakfast that Gwen had brought into his belly regardless of his image.

After eating breakfast, I was thinking about making up a lie to deceive Gwen, he listened to Gwen's cold words.

"James, is there any secret in you, right?"

"Huh?" James was dumbfounded, "You... why are you..."

"I'm not stupid," Gwen spread his hands.

James sighed, "Well, you are an intelligent student, you are insightful."

"Don't worry," Gwen patted James on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I won't ask your secrets. Everyone should have their own secrets. I am not a person who likes to explore the privacy of others."

"However, if you have anything to confide in, you can talk to me. I promise you will be a good listener."

Gwen's atmosphere made James a little uncomfortable. Shouldn't I be forced to find out what I did? Is it because I am afraid that I will kill someone?

Until James left the window, Gwen didn't show any interest in his secrets, which made James suddenly have a strong impulse to show what he did.

After James left, George returned home, and after a few conversations with his family, he went directly to Gwen's room.

"Recently, there has been some unrest in the city. The place I went last night, where hundreds of gang members were killed, will be reported in the news today. You must go out less in the evening. If you have socializing, let me know and I will go. Pick you up. That's it, k?"

"No problem!" Gwen nodded obediently.

When George left the room, his brows suddenly frowned, 'why there is a bad smell in Gwen's room, I maybe smell it wrong. '

'It's not... well, the daughter has grown up and is an adult. George shook his head and left.

Gwen in the room somehow connected Lexia's affairs with George.

'There is so much blood on his body, but there is no wound. Obviously it is the blood of other people.

After James left Gwen's house, she simply washed the blood in a public toilet, then put on the clean clothes Gwen gave and returned to the orphanage.

This is the weekend, so there is no need to go to school.

When James walked to the door, there was an Audi R8 parked on the side of the road. The red and yellow body shape was bold and unassuming.

After entering the door, there really was a poo sitting on the sofa.

With a big back, a black suit, brown sunglasses, a dignified sitting posture, and an unbelievable expression, he looks like a with an arrogant and chaotic personality.

Sitting next to the guy was a capable woman wearing a professional skirt, and when she saw James coming in, she stood up.

"You're back," Mother Hana, who was entertaining them, saw James and greeted with a smile, "let me introduce to you, this is James, one of Clarice's favorite brothers, and this is me yesterday. With your Miss Potts".

Actually, James knew the identities of these two people without introduction from Mother Hana and they could be seen on TV.

There are other people present, which makes James a little strange.

The man was here to deliver medicinal herbs to Grandma Mother Hana After saying hello to James with a smile, he sat in the corner happily drinking tea.

The meeting between James and Tony Stark was very unpleasant.

As a peerless talent born with a golden spoon, he inherited his father's business in his twenties and developed Stark Industries into an international top giant. The life winner Tony Stark's eyes have always been on the top of his head.

Anyone, including the government officials who rule this country, is no different from a pile of trash in his eyes.

His senses of people do not come from the identity of the other person, but from his own mood.

Today, his mood is obviously not very good.

Although in Tony's eyes at this time, Pepper Potts is just his assistant, and at most he helps him deal with the trivial matters after nenigh, which is similar to the role of the rich man in the old days who specially poured Yexiang in the house.

But as a person with a strong desire for control, even an assistant to Yexiang must serve him wholeheartedly, and should not delay work because of personal matters.

So Tony is very upset about Pepper's inexplicable adoption of an orphan.

Even with that, I am very upset with the "Children of the Star" orphanage and everyone in this orphanage.

Only to Mother Hana he still maintained a little respect.

After meeting James, Tony's first sentence was, "This Joseph friend, I don't think your decision is wise. Use your poor brain cells to think about it. The place where I grew up is more comfortable."

"It's not terrible for a 7-year-old child to have no correct values. Are you all in arrears with IQ? The new environment and new friends will make the child insecure, which will affect her growth. You are not responsible for yourself and others. "

James sat next to Mother Hana, and when Tony was finished, she raised her head and asked.

"Excuse me, Mr. Stark, are you going to adopt Clarice?"

Tony snorted, "Of course not."

James nodded, "Then shut up!"

"I..." Tony Stark exploded in an instan, no one has dared to talk to him like this. No, even if his parents are alive, it won't be the case.

"If you do this to piss me, then congratulations, you made it."

"So what?" James spread his hands.

Tony Stark took out the light-screen mobile phone, reached out and pressed it a few times, and then showed it to James.

"So, now this orphanage has been bought by me, including this building. As the owner of this orphanage, I declare that you, James, have been expelled."

Everyone was stunned by Tony Stark's vigorous and resolute manner, and Mother Hana was immediately speechless.

Pepper anxiously grabbed Tony ,"Mr. Stark, you can't do this. He is still a child. If you don't want to, it's a big deal that I won't adopt that child. Please withdraw your decision. "

Tony smiled, "I'm glad to hear your change of attention, but I didn't do this for anyone, but suddenly felt that doing good deeds is a great thing, so I bought this orphanage and wanted to build it here. A hall for orphans. But there should only be good kids in this hall, not bad children."
