“I won’t agree,” Adam said, looking at Christine. “You can’t refuse, you’re already a member of the Stark family. And I have a way to make you accept my proposal!”

"Hmph, no roses, no candlelight dinner, you can forget about getting me like this," Christine said with a haughty snort.

"Is that so?" Adam looked at Christine and asked with a light laugh.

"What...what do you want?" Christine asked Adam somewhat fearfully.

"How about it? I'm proposing to you!" Adam said, leaning down and sealing Christine's lips with his.

A kiss that lasted about ten minutes—if neither of them were ordinary people, they might actually have suffocated to death from kissing. Uh, okay, let's not talk about such unlucky things.

In short, after a long, superhero-style kiss, Adam looked at Christine, whose face was flushed red, whether from lack of oxygen or from shyness, and gently asked, "So, I'll ask you one more time, Miss Christine, will you marry me?"

"Hmph!" Christine wasn't about to give in so easily, so she immediately snorted and turned her head away.

Adam smiled slightly upon seeing this, gave Christine another long, superhero-like kiss, and asked again, "Beautiful lady, would you like to marry me?"

"Don't even think about it!" the proud Christine shouted angrily.

"Is that so? In that case, let's do it a few more times!" Adam grinned mischievously and bent down.

"Ah, stop, stop, my lips are almost swollen." Christine frowned her cute eyebrows and said pitifully, "Don't do this, I want romance, romance."

“Oh, didn’t I just give you a long, romantic French kiss?” Adam asked with a smile.

"Hmph, how can you be so shameless?" Christine snorted and said, "That's far from sincere."

“I’ve given myself to you, Christine, how could I not be sincere?” Adam stared into Christine’s eyes and asked very seriously, “Are you willing to marry me, a clone? Christine? You don’t mind my identity, you don’t mind my lowly origins?”

After hearing this, Christine gently stroked Adam's face and said, "Your origins are not lowly, Adam. You are my hero."

"So, will you marry me?"

"I'm willing, I'm willing to face everything you face with you!!!"

Chapter 350 An Unexpected Person

Adam learns he is a clone and is confused when Christine enlightens him. He then recalls everything about his life in this world and realizes that he is not Superman's shadow at all. He has a deep bond with this world, a bond that cannot be broken by a mere identity.

So Adam proposed to his lover Christine. Although he knew that it shouldn't be the time or place for a proposal, he desperately needed Christine to tell him that he was a living, breathing person in this world. Despite using some tricks, Christine eventually accepted his proposal, which made him very happy, and he couldn't wait to tell everyone the news.

"Hey bro, are you in there?"

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Tony's voice came through.

After hearing this, Adam left the secret room with Christine and then said to Tony, "I'm inside, come in."

Tony opened the door and went in. Seeing his brother and Christine, he asked with some confusion, "Huh? Didn't Jarvis say it was just you alone?"

"I wanted to know what he was up to here, so I secretly followed him," Christine said, covering her mouth with a laugh. "I used magic to become invisible, so Jarvis couldn't find me."

"Really? You guys are so romantic," Tony said, pursing his lips.

"That's right, Adam just proposed to me." Christine gave Adam a charming look and said.

"Oh, a proposal? In this place?" Tony asked, somewhat puzzled. "Oh, so you wanted to talk to your father about it."

Tony noticed that the family photo on his father's desk had been moved, so he guessed that Adam had come here to tell his father his feelings in order to propose to Christine, and Christine, who had been secretly following behind, overheard it and naturally succeeded in proposing.

Adam didn't want to tell Tony that he was a clone, so he went along with Tony's words and said, "Well, I came here to chat with my father, and Christine overheard me."

"I see. Congratulations then." Tony's expression changed slightly, then he smiled and asked, "Have you decided when to hold the wedding?"

"That hasn't been decided yet. After all, you know some things have happened recently, and we heard from Nova that a spaceship has already flown towards Earth and will probably arrive soon," Adam said with a slight sigh.

To be honest, Adam wanted to hold the wedding as soon as possible after his successful proposal, but then he thought about the existence of a group of aliens in outer space who might come to Earth at any time. In order to give Christine a perfect wedding, Adam had to postpone the date.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry. But let's go over there first. As for the wedding, we can hold it after this is over. Besides, we can invite my parents over too, right?" Christine said with a smile.

"Yes, that makes sense." Adam nodded slightly, knowing that Christine understood his pain and didn't want his wedding to leave any regrets.

You see, Dr. Reed and his wife held another wedding because things went wrong on the day of their first wedding. Although Adam and Johnny quickly distracted Nova, there were still some negative effects. In the end, they decided to hold another wedding, and Christine didn't want her wedding to turn out like that.

"By the way, Jarvis told me that you and Pepper seem to have broken up?" Adam asked. "What happened?"

“Sigh, I was the one who asked for the breakup.” Tony sighed and said, “You’ve heard about what happened two weeks ago, haven’t you? My place was attacked by the Ten Rings gang, the day after I posted my address online.”

"Yes, that really startled me, because there were some reasons why I couldn't leave the watchtower," Adam said, looking shaken. "Could it be because of this?"

“Yeah, Pepper almost lost her life because of this. Although I managed to save her in the end, I don’t know if I’ll have the chance to save her next time.” Tony sighed and said, “I’ve found that she’s always in danger when she’s around me, and I don’t want her to be in any danger.”

Adam sighed after hearing this. After all, sometimes love isn't about possession, but about letting go. Did Tony not love Pepper? No, he did. He loved Pepper very much. It was precisely because he loved her too much and cared too much that he left her. After all, the moment Tony became a superhero, he knew he could no longer live the life he used to.

At this point, Adam couldn't help but feel grateful for his luck once again. Being a superhero wasn't easy. Tony and Pepper broke up, Spider-Man Peter Parker stopped being Spider-Man for some reason, and because of this, he also broke up with Gwen Stacy. Daredevil also lost his lover, Erica, forever in a battle.

At this moment, Tony smiled and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Since you've decided to get married, even though we can't have a wedding now, we should still have a small party to celebrate."

Christine nodded after hearing this and said, "I think that's fine too. It's a good opportunity to call over some of our friends and announce the results in public."

After hearing this, Adam said, "How about tonight?"

"So eager?" Tony looked at his brother speechlessly and said.

“That’s right, we’re in such a hurry,” Adam said with a slight smile.

“That’s fine, after all, our friends don’t seem to have much to do lately,” Christine said with a slight smile.

Christine's friends are all superheroes. Since nothing major has happened recently, there's not much to do, and everyone's just living their lives. Generally, you can meet up with them.

“Since you’ve decided, then go ahead and do it. I don’t have anything else to do anyway,” Tony shrugged.

"Oh, by the way, what brings you here?" Adam only remembered to ask this question at this moment.

"Ah, it's nothing important. I'll talk to you about it tomorrow." Tony waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about work today."

Adam shrugged and said, "Whatever you say. By the way, come straight to our house tonight. Christine and I are about to go somewhere."

"Oh? Go somewhere?" Tony asked, puzzled.

"Yes, I need to tell my parents." Adam glanced at the family photo and said in a low voice.

“That’s true, we definitely need to go over there and let them know.” Tony nodded slightly and said, “I won’t go with you. See you tonight.”

“Alright, Athena can inform the others.” Adam nodded slightly and said.

“Let Athena come back too, and the Garuda Tower as well. We can’t leave them both alone in the watchtower,” Christine said to Adam.

"Okay, I'll do as you say," Adam nodded slightly.

Adam and Christine left Stark Tower together, then went to the graves of Howard and Christine Stark to say a few words before returning home to prepare for the party that evening. At that moment, Athena also returned with Janata.

Janata and Christine knew each other, but no matter what Adam said, she wouldn't call Christine "Mom," saying that her only mother was Athena, which made Adam a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Christine didn't say anything.

The party started as scheduled that evening. Everyone knew that Adam and Christine were getting married and offered their congratulations. They were also very envious of them, since it was rare for couples like the Reeds or them to be both superheroes. Most superhero love stories end in tragedy or breakup.

“Let’s toast to Mr. and Mrs. Adam!” Susan joked with a smile.

"That's true, let's toast!" The others also raised their glasses and said.

"Um, I'm a little embarrassed to say this, but could I be included?" Just then, a golden lightning bolt flashed by, and a person wearing a red bodysuit adorned with golden lightning patterns suddenly appeared in front of them, smiled slightly at Adam, and said, "I'm a little embarrassed, but we still need your help, Mr. Adam!"

Chapter 351 A Cry for Help from Another World

"Who are you?" Tony asked in a cold voice.

Adam stopped his brother, looking at him and saying, "Barry Allen? Is that right?"

"Huh? How did you know me?" The newcomer looked puzzled, took off the mask covering his face, revealing a very young and handsome blond man, and said, "That's right, I am Barry Allen."

"Let's talk about this later. You just said you needed my help, what's that all about? And how did you come to this world to find me?" Adam asked, for some reason recalling his previous nightmare.

“Something happened on our end, and then I ran into Riphunt, and through his clues, I found this universe,” Barry Allen said with a slight smile.

"Riphunt? That time hunter?" Adam thought for a moment and retrieved some information about Riphunt from his memories, then asked.

“Oh, you’ve met him too?” Barry Allen looked at Adam, a man who looked very much like his old friend, and who seemed to be called Superman in this world, just like his old friend.

“I’ve heard some rumors.” Adam nodded slightly and said, “So you found out about my existence in this world through him?”

“Yes, that’s right.” Barry Allen nodded and said, “Because…”

“Alright, let’s not talk about work today.” Adam suddenly interrupted Barry Allen, saying, “Today is the day I proposed to my fiancée, so…”

"Oh, I see. Congratulations." Barry Allen knew he couldn't rush things, so he waved his hand and said.

"Dude, what are you guys talking about?" Tony asked only after they stopped discussing the matter. "Who is he?"

"A superhero from another world, known as the Flash, the fastest man in the world!" Adam introduced. "Barry, this is my brother Tony Stark."

“Hello, Mr. Tony, I heard a lot of rumors about you when I first arrived,” Barry Allen said with a smile. “But I always felt that you, Mr. Adam, knew a lot about me.”

"It's a long story, I'll tell you another time. Anyway, I know all about you very well." Adam shrugged, not wanting to continue the topic, and immediately changed the subject, introducing the people present to Barry Allen.

Barry Allen didn't press the matter further when he saw that the other party didn't seem to be explaining, because before coming to this world, Riphunt had warned him not to ask about the other party's origins and told him that Adam Stark was a trustworthy person.

Barry Allen trusted Riphunt's words completely, because they had worked together several times before, and each time it proved that Riphunt and his team were trustworthy partners. Since the other party reminded him not to ask too many questions, there might be some hidden reason, so he decided not to ask.

And so, the party wasn't delayed by Barry Allen's sudden appearance; instead, it became even more joyful. After all, it's not easy for these superheroes to get together, and every time they do, it means something important has happened.

During the party, Barry Allen also introduced the situation on their side to the others. Compared to this world, the other world was much more exciting. After all, the main focus of this world was on mutants or superheroes on Earth, and aliens had only just appeared. However, in the other world, they had already dealt with several alien invasion incidents, and there were also many superheroes from other worlds among the superheroes in the other world, which made Tony and the others very interested.

"Is Superman an alien in your world?" Tony looked at his older brother and said, "There's even a Martian. What a fascinating world!"

“I think Batman is the most amazing one,” Logan said, biting his cigar. “He’s just an ordinary person who has received training, yet he became the strategist for all the superheroes in that world, all thanks to his own intellect. That’s really something, especially when everyone around him has superpowers.”

“Bruce is indeed very capable, but some of his ideas are too extreme.” Barry shrugged and said, “Compared to others, I still prefer to work with Martian Manhunter or other people.”

"Oh, really?" Jean Grey suddenly leaned closer and asked, "Hey, you're known as the Flash, right?"

"Ah, yes," Barry Allen's heart skipped a beat when he saw such a beautiful and mature woman approaching, and he asked with a slightly flushed face, "Ah, is there something you need?"

"Hehe, I just want to know just how fast you are," Jean Grey asked with interest. "Because we also have a mutant here named Quicksilver, who is also a superhero who is famous for his speed."

"My speed?" Barry Allen looked around and then asked, "Anyone want a hot dog?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Logan looked up and asked.

“Get me a hot coffee, Barry,” Adam said with a smile, because he already knew what Barry wanted to do.

"A hot coffee, and a hot dog too. What would you like to eat, little sister?" Barry said, finally glancing at Janata, who had been standing next to Adam, and asked.

"Me? Let me think... I want ice cream." Janata clapped her hands and looked at Barry with longing.

"Ice cream? Okay, I got it. I've been exploring New York City these past few days, and I know a really popular ice cream shop." Barry smiled slightly, stood up, and said, "Alright, I'll be right back!"
