Chapter 33 Does he hate me?

"Let's go up and eat."

Harvey saw Tony Stark understanding and said casually.

"good."

Tony Stark nodded upon hearing this.

This time the two went directly to the restaurant on the second floor.

It’s the New Year itself, and Tony Stark will prepare a lot of delicious food.

This time I was going to find Harvey Ambelaka during the New Year, so I was even more prepared.

But after meeting Harvey Ambelaka, he also asked people to prepare two whole beef feasts, so these tables were not enough to accommodate, just like eating a buffet with rich dishes.

"Mr. Harvey Ambelaka, it will take more than half an hour for the whole beef feast to be ready. Let's eat these first. The plates are over there."

Pepper said with a smile after seeing Tony and Harvey Ambelaka coming up from below.

Although Pepper was shocked when she first saw him, when she saw Harvey finishing the dinner for a hundred people without any pressure.

This gave Pepper a new understanding of Harvey Ambelaka's appetite.

This time, she was not surprised to hear that Tony had specially prepared two more beef feasts for the other party.

"Well, please, Miss Pepper."

When Harvey heard this, a smile appeared on his face and he nodded.

"Eat quickly, we have a guest coming later."

After hearing this, Tony Stark picked up a dinner plate and began to choose the food he wanted to eat, and then said casually.

Then Tony Stark went to sit down at the dining table nearby.

"Are there any more guests coming? Male or female?"

Pepper was not polite and started picking out her favorite dishes and came to the table. After hearing Tony's words, she inquired curiously.

Harvey Ambelaka directly picked up two plates, filled them for himself and sat at the dining table.

"It's Colson. He's going to bring me something later."

Tony Stark said casually after hearing this.

"What exactly did you talk about every time we went down there?"

"Why is Coulson involved again this time?"

"Isn't he an agent who specializes in handling weird incidents?"

"Could it be that what you are talking about has something to do with strange events? Can you tell me about it?"

When Pepper heard these words, she felt that she was completely kept in the dark and was extremely curious.

Pepper, like Tony, actually talks a lot.

"Don't you have many things to ask Harvey Ambelaka?"

Tony Stark heard this and directly brought the topic to Harvey.

"Mr. Harvey Ambelaka, you are in the stock and real estate business, right?"

When Pepper saw that Tony didn't want to talk about this topic, her beautiful eyes flashed, and she didn't ask any further questions and looked at Harvey.

"Strictly speaking, I'm in the stock business, and real estate is just a side job."

"Because I don't have much relationship with the military, I can't directly get a development permit to develop some land. I can only buy some properties and wait for the value to increase."

After hearing this, Harvey swallowed the food in his mouth and spoke.

"..."

When Pepper heard this casual sentence, she was speechless for a moment.

"Even I can't understand his values ​​and behavioral logic, so Pepper, you don't have to worry about it."

Tony Stark glanced at Harvey and said.

Harvey Ambelaka has more than 100 properties worth more than 10 million US dollars in his name, spread across every state in the United States.

Especially the manor where Harvey lived most often. Although he had not gone inside to see it, it was worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars in terms of land area, decoration, and various facilities.

Among them, Harvey Ambelaka has the most properties in New York, with as many as fifty-seven villas and estates.

He can also understand that Harvey Ambelaka bought some villas in other states and other cities.

Because owning real estate means that no matter which city you go to, you will have a place to live comfortably.

But he couldn't fully understand that New York bought so much.

The United States is still developing, especially in the city of New York, where the value of real estate is constantly increasing. It is not impossible to buy it specifically to let the value increase.

But according to Harvey Ambelaka's keen eye for stocks, if the money spent on real estate is used in stocks, he can earn more.

But it was also thanks to the fact that Harvey Ambelaka had so many properties in his name, so almost everyone thought that Harvey Ambelaka was in the stock and real estate business.

Therefore, Tony Stark could only convince himself that Harvey Amberaka simply wanted to be low-key and not so conspicuous.

"Well, Mr. Harvey Ambelaka, I have been asked to ask you many questions."

"How on earth do you want to attend the banquet they hold?"

Pepper was a little surprised when she heard Tony's words, but she didn't dwell on the question just now and asked politely.

"I've received a lot of invitations recently and I'm worried about it."

"Please Miss Pepper, please tell them."

"I usually have a lot of things to do, so please don't give me meaningless invitations."

Harvey said seriously.

"I will help you convey it tactfully."

Pepper was stunned for a moment when he heard these words that clearly meant rejection, then he realized what he was saying and agreed with a smile.

There are rumors in New York that Harvey Ambelaka is also a playboy, but now it seems that the rumors are not entirely true.

At least Harvey Ambelaka has no idea about some rich young women in New York, that's for sure.

"Well, please excuse me, Miss Pepper."

Harvey responded politely after hearing this.

Carrying the finished dishes, he continued towards the tables filled with food.

"Tony, does Mr. Harvey Ambelaka actually hate me?"

Pepper asked in a low voice as soft as a mosquito when she saw Harvey going to get something to eat.

Fortunately, Tony Stark's body has been strengthened a lot, and his hearing is better than before, otherwise he would not be able to hear clearly.

"Nothing. If he really doesn't want to see you, he won't be polite to you, but will directly show disgust towards you."

"So if you don't see how disgusted he is, you don't have to think too much about it."

"He just left to add food. It's not as bad as you think."

But when Tony Stark heard clearly, he immediately shook his head and spoke.

After several contacts, Tony Stark knew that Harvey Ambelaka was a very proud person.

Obadiah Stane was straight up called trash.

Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., also showed no respect at all.

If Harvey Ambelaka really didn't want to see Pepper, he might not even bother to say anything, let alone respond to Pepper with more polite words.

After hearing this, Pepper felt relieved when he saw Harvey Ambelaka picking up vegetables.

"Miss Pepper, how does it feel to be in charge of Stark Industries?"

Harvey naturally heard what Pepper said, but he just pretended not to see it. After adding the dishes, he continued to sit back and asked casually.

"Mr. Harvey Ambelaka, I know you are a shareholder of Stark Industries."

"But it's the first day of the new year, so please don't talk about work."

"Let me clear my mind and have a good rest for the day."

Pepper heard Harvey talking about Stark Industries and rubbed his brow, looking like he had a headache.

Now that Stark Industries is in charge of her place, Tony himself is constantly doing research to prepare for the transformation of Stark Industries.

And she has to run around everywhere, which is not as beautiful as she originally imagined.

"I have no control over the direction of Stark Industries."

"Of course I didn't mean to ask, I just said it casually."

"Miss Pepper, if you don't want to talk about these things, don't take it too seriously."

Harvey saw Pepper's headache and said while eating.

For everyone watching Pepper's life, let's not talk about whether he was likeable or not.

But Pepper has been working for Tony Stark since he was young and has done his best to deal with Tony Stark's affairs, large and small.

Facing the arrogant and sometimes maverick and even willful Tony Stark.

Pepper may have a feminine side and whine and complain, but in the end she will choose to believe and support Tony Stark.

The strong relationship the two have accumulated over the years has made Tony Stark dependent on Pepper.

This is also the key to making Tony Stark stop being a playboy and want to marry Pepper.

Tony Stark just faced the opportunity to completely change himself, but he didn't immediately want to obtain powers similar to his. Maybe he was worried about Pepper's opinion.

Harvey already knew this, so he wasn't surprised when Tony Stark asked him if he could give Pepper a long life.

For Harvey, the more people and things that believe in and join the void, the better.

Anyway, he can get void energy, and the other party can get a long lifespan and extraordinary power. This can be said to be a win-win situation.

Therefore, Harvey never worried that he would not be able to win over others to believe in and join the Void.

After all, the long lifespan alone is enough to drive countless people crazy.

"I want to create an Ark reactor that no one else can copy."

"Now I have some ideas that may be successful, so give me some more time."

Tony Stark also knows that the reason why Pepper has a headache running around is because Stark Industries is currently in a transition period.

But no new energy sources are available, which will arouse some dissatisfaction from other shareholders of Stark Industries and bring some pressure to Pepper.

It's just that if the Ark reactor he made now is leaked and let other companies get it, it can be copied after spending some time analyzing it.

Therefore, it is impossible for Tony Stark to announce the Ark Reactor to the outside world.

"Tony, you don't need to feel too much pressure. After all, we are transforming into a new industry and are not following the old path. Just take your time."

When Pepper heard Tony's words, she first comforted him.

"Made you laugh, Mr. Harvey Ambelaka."

"I just didn't want my rare day off to be disturbed. My reaction was a bit excessive. I didn't mean to blame you."

Then Pepper looked at Harvey and said with some embarrassment.

"I know, after all, it's not easy to be in charge of a company as big as Stark Industries."

Harvey shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't care, and spoke.
