Superman Marvel Adventures

Adam smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you, Dad!"

Howard asked, "Since you've chosen this path, you have to stick with it. You have a long road ahead of you!" Adam nodded and said, "Yes, thank you, Dad. I understand." Howard asked, "By the way, are you free tonight?"

Adam shook his head and said, "What I want to do most right now is find Magneto and give him a good beating. What? Is there anything that needs my help tonight?"

Howard nodded and said, "That's right. Tonight I'm planning to hold a charity gala to provide some assistance to the families of those who lost their lives and those who were seriously injured in this disaster."

Upon hearing this, Adam immediately nodded and said, "If that's the case, I'll definitely go. I'll have Athena keep an eye on Magneto."

Howard said, "Well, in that case, you should go back and get some rest first, and then go to the Hilton Hotel at seven o'clock tonight."

Adam stood up and said, "Okay, Father, I'll head back now." He then said goodbye to Howard and left Stark Tower.

After leaving Stark Tower, Adam went straight home, lay down on his bed, and fell asleep. Although Adam's physical strength had recovered, his mental fatigue was not so easy to recover from, and he needed a good night's sleep.

He slept for a full three hours, and when he woke up it was already six o'clock.

Seeing that Adam had gotten up, Athena appeared at Adam's bedside and said, "Master, you're awake?"

Adam asked, "Athena, have you found Magneto?"

Athena shook her head and said, "We didn't find him, Master. Magneto's ability is to control magnetic fields. He usually uses these magnetic fields to interfere with surveillance equipment. The last time we found him was because Mystique was using a computer to look for information about the X-Men."

Adam sighed and said, "I knew this would happen. Oh well, what about the priest?"

Athena smiled and said, "We've made some progress with the priest. Give me a little time and I'll be able to find their hiding place!"

Upon hearing the good news, Adam smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's good. You go find the priest first. As for Magneto, we're not in a hurry. We know his purpose, and we'll be able to catch him one day!"

Athena nodded and said, "Yes, I understand, Master. By the way, you are going to the charity gala tonight. I have already informed Miss Christine. She has been placed in the Mester Hotel by the company, and an evening dress has been sent to her in your name."

Adam replied, "Hmm, well done. Athena, call Christine and tell her I'll be there soon, and tell her to get ready." He then took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.

About ten minutes later, Adam, dressed neatly, came out, drove a Ferrari from the garage, left the villa, sped to the entrance of the Meister Hotel, handed the car to the hotel doorman, and then went inside the hotel.

Following the information provided by Athena, Adam made his way to Christine's room and knocked on the door.

"Who are you looking for?" It was Emma's voice.

Upon hearing this, Adam replied, "It is I, Adam!"

The door opened, and Adam walked in smiling, only to find that Christine wasn't in the living room. Emma gave Adam a slight bow and said, "Hello, Mr. Adam, Christine is putting on makeup. Would you like to wait in the living room?"

Adam nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for her here." He then took a glass from the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of red wine, and sat down to slowly savor it.

Adam waited for more than ten minutes before Christine finally came out of the room. Seeing Adam, she smiled and said, "Adam, you're here! I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!"

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Acquisition of the Newspaper

P.S.: Sorry, I live on the first floor, and the drain seems to be clogged. There was a terrible smell as soon as I walked in the door. I've been busy until now to clean up the house. Two updates a day as usual, hope you enjoy it!!!

==================================================

Adam met the Hilton sisters at a charity gala, and the younger sister, Nicky Hilton, even made a bold statement, declaring war on Christine, saying that she also liked Adam and wanted to compete fairly with Christine.

Christine didn't pay attention to the little girl's words; she was confident in that. But what Christine truly considered a formidable rival was the smiling Pars Hilton. Although she concealed it well, Christine still saw admiration for Adam in the other woman's eyes. Therefore, Christine gently stopped Adam's arm, seemingly to remind him that he was already taken.

Tony, who hadn't been able to get a word in edgewise, laughed when he heard Nicky Hilton's words, "Hey, I feel like you guys have forgotten about me ever since Adam came."

Nicky Hilton wrinkled her pretty nose, snorted, and said, "Who wants to be with a jerk like you? I wouldn't even talk to you if it weren't for hearing Adam's childhood stories."

Adam was speechless. This Tony was definitely using his childhood stories to pick up girls again.

Tony noticed Adam's expression and immediately panicked, saying, "Heh, I didn't really say anything."

Adam sighed after hearing this and said, "Forget it, this isn't the first or second time. I'll deal with you next time."

After reading it, Pals Hilton laughed and said, "Hehe, the bond between you brothers is truly enviable."

Adam glanced at the innocent and adorable Nicky Hilton and said, "Don't you have a lovely little sister too?"

Pars Hilton smiled and looked at her sister, saying, "Yes, hehe," sounding somewhat melancholy. Adam didn't say much, after all, it was their first time meeting, and the other party was clearly from the Hilton family, so it was better to be cautious.

Seemingly realizing that Adam had no interest in continuing the question, Pars Hilton quickly composed himself and said, "Come on, Adam, let me introduce you to a few people, all of whom are young members of conglomerates or families."

Adam didn't say anything after hearing this, but led Christine, Tony, the Hilton sisters, and others to a smaller group on the other side. Of course, the legendary scene of a spoiled brat showing off and then being humiliated by the protagonist didn't happen. Everyone present was an elite from their respective industries, casually chatting about current events or topics of interest, appearing very enthusiastic.

Soon, the highlight of the evening's gathering, the charity auction, began. Everyone entered the auction hall, where seats had already been set out, and took their places. The items at the auction were bizarre and varied. The more respectable items were various paintings, calligraphy, and antiques, while the more outrageous ones included clothes worn by celebrities, and other such items.

Of course, this was just Adam's feeling; in reality, there was no ** at all, it was just an NBA player's shorts.

By the end of the charity gala, the amount of money collected was no small sum. Howard and some heads of various foundations established a fund called "Heart to Heart" to monitor the use of this money.

Tony, who was sitting next to Adam, grimaced when he heard the name "Heart to Heart" and said, "What an awful name. You might as well use my name."

Adam smiled but didn't say anything, knowing that Tony was just bored and wanted to vent.

The party lasted for nearly two hours. When it ended, Adam said goodbye to the Hilton sisters and Tony, took Christine to the Hotel Mester, and then began to punish her.

The next day, as the morning sunlight streamed through the window, Adam was doing morning exercises with Christine in his arms. After all, Christine was going to Canada to film a movie soon. Although the movie was almost finished, the thought of seeing Christine again a month later made Adam suddenly increase his speed, making Christine's "Song of Life" soar to new heights.

After they finished making love, Christine complained, "You're such a bull! You didn't treat me with any mercy."

Adam laughed and said, "Hehe, so who said we should continue, or want more? I'm just a very obedient bull."

Christine kissed Adam and said, "I had so much fun last night. I love you so much, Adam."

Adam laughed and said, "I love you too, baby, but let's get up quickly, or Emma will get impatient."

Christine nodded and said, "Okay, carry me to the bath."

Upon hearing this, Adam stood up, picked up Christine, and carried her to the bathroom. Soon, Christine's loud singing voice came from the bathroom again, as if the couple were having an affair again.

Despite her deep reluctance, Christine left, and Adam did not see her off, because he had an important matter to attend to: acquiring a newspaper.

Why would Adam think of acquiring a newspaper and then not take Christine to the airport for it?

It's all because of one news article. Do you remember that Daily Bugle report from last night?

Yes, it was this guy who published something in the newspaper that was insignificant to Adam but extremely detrimental to Christine. This infuriated Adam, who decided to sue him and then acquire the Daily Bugle. Therefore, upon learning this news, he abandoned his plan to take Christine to the airport and instead called Stephen, his lawyer, to arrange a meeting at the hotel.

Around 10 o'clock, Attorney Stephen arrived at the hotel right on time.

Attorney Stephen smiled and said, "You look great. It seems that news article didn't affect you at all."

Adam pursed his lips and said, "I've seen plenty of news like that. However, although this news doesn't affect me at all, it will have a big impact on Christine's career, which is why I came to you."

Attorney Stephen was taken aback and said, "Are you serious this time?"

Adam was speechless for a moment after hearing this, and said, "Why is everyone asking me the same question? Am I some kind of scumbag who plays with other people's feelings?"

Attorney Stephen shook his head and said, "Oh, that's not what I meant, I'm just a little surprised."

Adam said helplessly, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. What we need to do now is take that guy named John to court, and then you should use various channels to acquire shares in the Daily Bugle. I want to acquire that newspaper."

Attorney Stephen was taken aback. He had guessed the first thing before he came, but he didn't expect Adam to want to buy the newspaper. The Daily Bugle was just a third-rate newspaper with no market value. He never expected that Adam, who had always been relatively calm, would do something like this for his girlfriend. He was truly impressed by Adam's behavior.

"Are you sure you want to buy the Daily Bugle? From what I understand, the owner has been behind on wages for a long time, and the newspaper has absolutely no commercial value!"

Adam said nonchalantly, "That's right, I'm going to acquire it. As for what happens afterward, just send a few people from Dawn Company to manage it. Even if it goes bankrupt, it doesn't matter. I'm buying it just to get revenge for Christine. I want those guys to know that they can write whatever they want about me, but they can't write anything about the people around me!"

Attorney Stephen was shocked. He said, "Oh my God, Adam, you're not serious, are you? Even if that newspaper has no market value, you'd need at least tens of millions of dollars to buy it!"

Adam replied calmly, "It's alright, I have plenty of money!"

Attorney Stephen was speechless. The Stark family were all such freaks. If you didn't offend them, they would be gentlemen, but once you did, they would turn into madmen and use money to kill you.

Knowing he couldn't change Adam's mind, Attorney Stephen said, "Fine, since you've made up your mind, I'll do it."

Adam laughed and said, "That's right, that's how it should be. I want to get these things done as soon as possible, and it's best not to let this affect Christine's career."

Attorney Stephen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get it done as soon as possible."

Adam nodded and said, "Well, thank you for your help, Attorney Stephen."

Attorney Stephen shook his head and said, "I'm unlucky to have run into you and your son!"

================================================== ==

Suddenly, Adam grabbed her by the neck, making it difficult for Natasha to breathe. She felt as if she was about to die. Hearing Adam call out her name and the voice she had longed for, she trembled and exclaimed in disbelief, "A...Adam?!"

Upon hearing this, Adam loosened his grip, and Natasha collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. Adam took a few deep breaths, then destroyed the bomb strapped to Natasha's body. He glanced at Natasha, whose eyes were filled with tears, and turned to leave without a word.

Upon seeing this, Natasha, ignoring her own pain, cried out, "Wait, Adam, don't go!"

Adam turned around and said, "Don't go? Who left first? Hehe, I never thought you were the infamous Black Widow! Hahaha, this is hilarious! Haha, I actually slept with the infamous Black Widow! Hahaha!!!"

Adam laughed wildly, but the tears streaming down his face proved that he wasn't laughing out of joy.

Natasha looked at the crazed Adam and cried out in distress, "Adam, let me explain..."

Adam waved his hand and said, "Alright, I've already believed you once. Hehe, I never thought that the person I love most would be a secret agent. Haha, your S.H.I.E.L.D. is really amazing. Did they know I had special abilities when I was very young? Otherwise, why would they send you, their most trusted subordinate, to lure me?"

Natasha shook her head after hearing this and said, "That's not how it is, Adam, listen to me."

Adam didn't give Natasha a chance, saying indifferently, "No need to say anything, I don't love you anymore. I didn't expect you to still be alive. Heh, all that heartbreak for nothing. By the way, if you like, tell Nick Fury about me being the Shadow Knight. I think he'll definitely reward you!" After saying that, he ignored Natasha's calls and left at super speed.

Natasha stared blankly at Adam's retreating figure, muttering, "Adam, do you really think I left you willingly? Yes, I did approach you because of a mission, but I'm not the kind of person who would do anything for a mission. I have my own bottom line. If I didn't like you, why would I sleep with you? Heh, yes, it's no use saying all this now. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about Xia Ying's identity."

After Natasha finished speaking, she walked to the clothes that the priest had taken away, picked up the communicator, and calmly reported on the mission progress.

"The mission failed. The priest recognized me. Also, this mysterious organization seems to have instruments that can read people's minds. We need to keep that in mind next time we send someone. As for the priest's abilities, I was unable to find out anything."

Nick Fury, inside the S.H.I.E.L.D. building, listened to his trusted subordinate's report and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Natasha said, "Shadow Knight broke in. The priest seemed very afraid of Shadow Knight and left as soon as he heard that Shadow Knight had arrived."

Nick Fury asked, "Where are you now?"

After hearing this, Natasha said, "I'm still in that base. You can find me by looking at the coordinates on my communicator. Although the priest has left, there are still some documents left here that might be useful to us."
