American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 87 You Don't Trust Me?

While waiting for the starlight to return, Xiao Xian dialed Osborne's number.

Xiao Xian always repays kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Since Tony Stark actually sent people to attack him, Xiao Xian was definitely going to retaliate. However, there was no need for him to do it alone. It would be better to drag Harry Osborn into the mess and take down Tony together.

"Hey? Who are you? Why do you have my number?" Harry said impatiently after answering the phone.

"It's me, Xiao Xian, the top executive at Osborn Superheroes Agency, a subsidiary of the Osborn Group," Xiao Xian introduced himself with great confidence.

"." Harry glanced at Mary Jane beside him, suppressed the urge to curse, and immediately blocked Xiao Xian.

What kind of world is this? Don't bosses care about top salespeople at all? I'm the company's number one, and my debut video even featured a lot of Osborn's weaponry. It's really disheartening.

When he dialed the number again, he found himself directly transferred to voicemail, and Xiao Xian thought he must have been blocked.

This boss is so irresponsible! He's even blocked the phone number of the company's top superhero. Osborne Group is doomed in Harry's hands. How can he face the investors, the shareholders of Osborne Group, and Norman Osborne?

Harry can't handle this group, so Xiao Xian has to take over. Xiao Xian can handle it for Harry, and Mary Jane can also help out, since Xiao Xian is always happy to help others.

He dialed Mary Jane's number. Mary Jane glanced at the caller ID, then at Harry, and after thinking for a moment, answered the phone.

"Feed?" Mary Jane deliberately reminded Xiao Xian, "I'm at Harry's house."

"I know. I'll say I got your phone number from Aunt May and give it to Harry. I need to talk to him," Xiao Xian said.

"It's for you." Although reluctant, Mary Jane still had to listen to Xiao Xian's words and reluctantly handed the phone to Harry.

"Is it for me?" Harry took the phone with great confusion, but the voice on the other end of the line broke his guard.

"I have something to tell you."

"How did you get Mary Jane's phone number?! Stay away from her! You despicable bastard!"

Harry was very wary. He had heard about what the female employees of his subsidiary were like. Even the female executive who came back from inspecting the Osborn subsidiary became a fan of Xiao Xian and harassed Remy every day, asking him to improve Xiao Xian's treatment and resources. Remy had even complained to Harry about it.

If Mary Jane hadn't been there, Harry would have already gone along with Remy's suggestion and fired the female executive.

Harry didn't care that Peter Parker, a loser, was pursuing Mary Jane; he even had the mood to bring Mary Jane to Peter's trial. But the appearance of Xiao Xian, a seasoned womanizer with an amazing track record, next to Mary Jane raised Harry's alarm bells to the maximum.

Although Harry thought Xiao Xian was just an average handsome guy, based on his understanding, other people who had seen Xiao Xian, especially women, didn't think so.

Although Harry outwardly disregarded Xiao Xian, acting as if he didn't want to see him and even forbidding his servants from reporting anything about Xiao Xian, he was actually still paying attention to this enemy. After all, there weren't many people who could scare Harry so much that he wet his pants.

Harry followed Xiao Xian's social media account and discovered that his enemy was extremely obsessed with women, often changing several a day, and each one was more beautiful than the last, all goddess-level beauties. Moreover, it seemed that the women were the ones who pursued him.

Harry had considered exploiting Xiao Xian's weakness by arranging for a female spy or assassin to assassinate him, or by having someone give Xiao Xian a special drug to cripple his genitals, thus venting Harry's anger.

Osborn Corporation focuses on biotechnology and has developed lizard serum with powerful regenerative abilities. It contains a special agent and substance that inhibits regeneration. Although no specific experiments have been conducted on Xiao Xian to verify this, Harry felt that since it inhibits regeneration and Xiao Xian has regenerative abilities, it must be effective.

Anyway, Harry felt that Xiao Xian's super regeneration was pretty much the same as the lizardman's super regeneration.

However, considering Mary Jane, it was not convenient for Harry to do these things for the time being. He planned to wait until he married Mary Jane and went on their honeymoon abroad to make his move secretly. He figured that by then, Mary Jane would be on her honeymoon abroad with him and wouldn't have the mind to pay attention to Xiao Xian's affairs.

"Peter has been pursuing Mary Jane for so many years, and Aunt May lives in my house. Isn't it reasonable for me to ask Aunt May for Mary Jane's phone number?" Xiao Xian said calmly.

"No matter how you got Mary Jane's phone number, don't call it again, and definitely don't meet with her, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Harry was furious, then he saw Mary Jane staring at him with murderous intent. Harry's momentum immediately faltered, and he weakly asked Mary Jane...

"What's wrong, darling?"

"You mean I don't have the freedom to make friends? Or do you suspect I'll cheat on you?" Mary Jane squinted at Harry, giving him a forced smile.

"I wonder why that guy who throws parties every day, goes clubbing, and has a history of cheating? Now he suspects me of cheating?"

Not to mention Harry, even Xiao Xian was taken aback by Mary Jane's righteous tone. Wasn't it Mary Jane who had posed in eighteen different ways in front of him tonight to increase his attack speed?

"I...I didn't mean that~ Honey, of course I believe you, but this guy is a playboy, he's a jerk. Aunt May, you know her, right? She was seduced by him and he won't take responsibility. He's a complete jerk. You can't associate with people like that," Harry quickly explained.

"Really? So all those shady friends you hang out with are good men? And all those girls who come to your parties and clubbing are good women?" Mary Jane looked Harry in the eye and said.

"Besides, at least he's a scumbag in a clear way. He didn't confirm his relationship with Aunt Mei, unlike some people who have fiancées but still cheat on each other."

"I was wrong, darling. I shouldn't have interfered with your freedom to make friends." Hearing this, Harry guiltily touched his cheek. His friends were right. Once you're caught cheating, the other person will eat your words for life.

"Hmph~ If you're wrong, you have to accept the punishment." Mary Jane snorted, seizing the opportunity to state the conditions she had already planned.

"If you don't trust me and Xiao Xian, then I'll spend more time with Xiao Xian. I want Xiao Xian to be the male lead in the movie you've been preparing for me."

"No way!" Harry immediately retorted. Instead of having Mary Jane and Xiao Xian play boyfriend and girlfriend on set, he would rather just carry Mary Jane to Xiao Xian's bed. That would be much simpler.

"What's wrong? So you still don't believe me?" Mary Jane said, quite dissatisfied.

"No, that's not it. Of course I believe you. It's mainly because of his... status, you know, he..." Harry frantically tried to find an excuse to brush it off.

"Isn't he the top star in your company? How could he not be a big name?" Mary Jane immediately retorted.

"He's a bad actor, yes, he's a bad actor, he has no acting experience, the audience won't buy it, darling, you don't want your first movie to be a box office flop, do you?" Harry quickly came up with another excuse.

"Your company's leading superhero is making his movie debut, generating tons of buzz. That alone will ensure the film doesn't fail at the box office," Mary Jane retorted easily once again.

"Well, well, anyway..." Harry tried to think of a reason, but seemed to be completely unable to come up with one.

"I'm busy, put it on speakerphone, I'll talk to her." Unable to listen any longer, Xiao Xian said into the phone that he was very busy and who had time to be a movie lead actor.

有这

"Mmm!" Harry didn't care about anything else when he heard that, so he put the phone on speakerphone.

"I don't have time. Who has the time to join a production team, play the male lead, and spend months filming a movie? There's no clause like that in my contract with Osborne," Xiao Xian said bluntly.

"Darling, that's true, there's nothing I can do about it." Harry said with great joy, and then he heard Xiao Xian's next words.

"However, the male supporting character is still acceptable. As punishment for him, I'm willing to take the time to help him."

"Xiao Xian, I'm your boss!" Harry said angrily upon hearing this.

"You're stopping him from starring in my movie! You still don't believe me!" Mary Jane immediately snapped at Harry.

"No~ I was just joking," Harry said, his lips twitching.
