Chapter 65 : Ivy is No longer The Street Girl

"Tony, trying to get you to stop has been one of the few failures of my entire life."

~ Pepper Potts, Avengers: Endgame

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

New York City Hospital.

Pepper sat on the bench in the corridor, covering his face with both hands as if softly weeping. Jude leaned against the wall and did not speak, nor did he intend to comfort him. To Pepper, the man inside could be regarded as a good father, but to Ivy, he was just scum.

"The doctor said he was dying, his organs were failing, and his life was about to come to an end."

"Where's Stark? He's a genius; he's also the world's top rich man; can't he help a little."

"Roger is a natural failure. His cells are no longer viable. Tony tried, but he is not good at this field. If you want Roger to live, maybe he can only be made like a machine, but I didn't want to do that."

"Really, maybe this is retribution for his abandoning his wife and daughter."

"I'm sorry..." Little Pepper continued to apologize.

"There is no need to say sorry; it has nothing to do with you; you are also a victim."

The two talked one after another, and after a while of silence, Pepper spoke.

"He knew he was dying, so he hoped that I could take good care of Ivy and help him make up for his fault."

"In this regard, you need to ask Ivy for your opinion, but she is in her twenties. I think she shouldn't need your care."

"But I checked her past. She was not doing well, wandering on the street, fighting, drinking, and stealing, and was put in jail a few days ago, so if possible, I hope she can stay in New York."

"I will not take drastic measures. I am willing to approach her slowly, help her, and make her life better without worrying about the future."

"Mr. Herbert, although I know I shouldn't say that, I still want to ask you: can you help me persuade Ivy? I just hope she can have a better life."

"sigh!"

After a moment of silence, Jude sighed. It is difficult for a woman like Pepper to beg others in a low voice. However, it is a waste to ask him to help persuade. Besides, the current Ivy does not need her help.

"Miss Potts, to be honest, I don't think Ivy needs your help. All you know is the past her, but now you need to know a brand new her."

Pepper raised his head and asked puzzledly, "I don't understand, Mr. Herbert, what do you mean?"

"Ivy is no longer the street girl. Her current identity is the honorary president of the Daily Bugle, a special agent of the Wayne Group."

"What?"

Pepper looked incredulous. After all, a stray girl with no knowledge suddenly changed and became a member of the Wayne Group, which was as famous as Stark. This change was so great that normal people would not believe it.

"I know it was a bit sudden, but you don't have to doubt that this appointment, was announced just yesterday, and Bruce Wayne personally made the decision."

Pepper's mind went back and forth. Even with her knowledge, she felt a little dazed at the moment. That was the Wayne Group. Bruce Wayne hadn't even met her a few times. How could he see Ivy?

Wait, thinking of Bruce Wayne and thinking of him as a character like Tony, a bad premonition flashed in Little Pepper's heart because, apart from this reason, she could not think of any reason to make Ivy soar into the sky.

"Ivy has a relationship with Bruce Wayne, right?"

"What?"

"Otherwise, how could she be recognized as the honorary president of the Daily Bugle? Don't tell me it is because of this; I am not a fool."

Jude patted his forehead speechlessly, but from the perspective of a normal person, it seemed that this was the only correct answer.

"Miss Potts, your thinking is too complicated. Ivy and I have a very good relationship with Bruce, but it's not a big deal if she wants to be an honorary president."

But when he said this, Little Pepper didn't understand it. In his opinion, Ivy couldn't come into contact with Bruce Wayne. If your guess is wrong, then the key should be Jude Herbert, and it seems that you need to investigate the other party carefully.

Squeak!

The door to the ward was pushed open, Ivy walked out with a complex expression, and Pepper quickly stood up when she saw it.

"He... he is dead; he has no breathing."

Hearing this, Pepper rushed into the ward with one step, and tears shed instantly.

Ivy walked up to Jude and suddenly plunged into his arms.

"Sniff; I only saw pictures of him, and now he is dead in front of me."

Jude patted Ivy on the back. All he could do now was hold the girl in his arms and give her a shoulder.

"Woo... I am happy to see him dead, but I don't know why. I want to cry."

"It's okay; just cry if you want to cry; you are a living person; you have feelings; everything will be fine, Ivy."

"Woo..."

"Don't worry~ I will always be by your side."

A few minutes later, gold and red armor suddenly appeared in the sky above the hospital, and flames spurted from the hand armor and soles of the feet and fell on the ground, instantly arousing the onlookers and passersby.

"Mom, look at it; it's Iron Man!"

"Iron Man, my God!"

"Tony Stark, why did he come to the hospital?"

"Wow Tony Stark is more handsome than on TV; I love him!"

Tony put away his armor and ran to the hospital quickly.

"Hey, Iron Man, can you take a photo together?"

"Iron Man, I love you!"

But the moment he showed up, a large crowd of onlookers had already rushed over, and countless people asked for a group photo and hug.

If it were before, Tony would have enjoyed this kind of atmosphere, but now he can't care about it. After receiving the news of Pepper's father's death, he didn't even sit in the car and flew over in the steel armor.

The current Little Pepper must be extremely sad and lonely. It is when he is needed, and since he has just provoked others, he will not act at this time, but when will he be waiting?

"Sorry everyone, I will take a group photo next time. I have a very important friend who is sick. I must go to see it quickly. Please let me through."

Hearing Tony Stark's words, some people naturally stepped aside, but some fanatics were still surrounded.

And Tony Stark is proud and not deceived, let alone his fan, so he can only squeeze in.

"What are you doing in a daze? Come and help me!"

The security guard of the hospital rushed over to help Tony separate the crowd, but even so, it took a while before Tony rushed into the gate of the hospital, which shows that Iron Man is so popular.
