My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

In a certain manor, Edgar Stan, the former president of Water Company, was meeting with an old man in his sixties.

The old man used to be the major shareholder of Water Company-Anthony, and was also one of the founders of Water Company. Occupying more than 20% of the shares of Water Company, he also has many industries and investments in other industries, such as medicine, biotechnology, and chemistry. He is a veritable billionaire.

However, his current condition does not look very good.

Because he is now a very old patient.

Lying on the bed, wearing a hospital gown, with a tube inserted into his body, it was difficult to speak.

"Edgar, I... I don't have much time now, the cancer cells have spread to the point that it cannot be contained, so we... must seize the time to regain control of the Water Company, And those alien technologies, there must be a way to heal my body."

Speaking so many words in a row, Anthony felt very strenuous, and immediately coughed loudly after speaking.

He still has several tubes stuck in his body, and it seems that the situation has reached the worst stage.

Edgar nodded, "Victoria has made a plan. As long as Eric Xavier dies, we can regain control of Walt. And S.H.I.E.L.D., I have now contacted the Senate to prepare for It launched an investigation."

Edgar, who retreated to the second line, was extremely dissatisfied with his situation. After all, there is nothing worse than changing from being the helm of a company with extraordinary influence in every move to being a bad old man who is ignored by no one. .

It just so happened that Anthony was suffering from cancer and was eager to use Walter's black technology to develop a special drug to restore himself to health.

All two people colluded together, plotting to take power at Water Corporation, and continue to carry out research on cancer.

Even if Compound No. 5 can't restore Anthony's health, those lost alien technologies, things that Eric hid in S.H.I.E.L.D., can always do it.

"Ahem... That's good."

He was silent for a while, and said: "I have made a lot of money in my life, but now I find that it is useless. Now I am suffering from illnesses all the time. With the current treatment methods, if I am lucky If I don’t, I can live for a year. If I’m not lucky, I might not be able to live for half a year.”

"I have tens of billions of wealth, but this wealth can't save my life at all. I don't want to die now. The empire I created is just on the right track. How can I be reconciled?"

"Ahem!"

Because of his agitation, Anthony coughed violently.

"I...I should live another forty or fifty years, not a damn year or half a year!"

"What kind of person do you think Eric Xavier is? Edgar, you two have been dealing with each other for a long time."

He calmed down and asked Edgar Stan.

Edgar thought for a while, and said: "He is a very...a smart guy, with moderate scrutiny, and he always hides himself very deeply. You will suddenly find out when everything becomes clear. It's the last laugh."

"Are you saying he's very worried?"

Anthony smiled wryly, "That's right, if it wasn't someone with a serious mind, how could he quietly hold the shares of Water Company in his hands? I even began to suspect that the series of problems that Water Company encountered before were all He picked it up."

Panting for a while, Anthony shook his head, "But it doesn't matter anymore. If the plan is successful, he is dead now. Think about how many people he has offended, GM, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon , these arms suppliers,

He wants S.H.I.E.L.D. to purchase their weapons, but he stubbornly wants to launch his own..."

In his opinion, Eric's behavior offended many people.

So even if he is assassinated now, I believe not many people will come out to investigate the real culprit.

"Buzz!"

While talking, Edgar Stan's cell phone rang suddenly.

He took out his phone and glanced at the screen, his face changed.

Tell Anthony that he still has something to do, and walk out immediately.

But just two steps away, the door was pushed open.

A team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stood outside the door.

"Mr. Edgar, you have been arrested on suspicion of terrorist activities."

The agents took out a warrant and waved it at Edgar.

Then some agents came up and took his arms.

Edgar was taken aback, and then immediately realized, "This is Mr. Anthony's residence, who allowed you to break in?"

"I'm sorry, we are only acting according to the order. As for Mr. Anthony, he is also suspected, but because of his illness, we will not investigate him for the time being."

The leader who arrested Edgar, who was the leader, glanced at Anthony lying on the bed, and waved, "Take him away!"

So under the watchful eyes of everyone, Edgar was taken away by several people.

How could Anthony, who was lying on the hospital bed, not understand that the conspiracy had been exposed, and was so angry that he couldn't even breathe.

In the end, he was so angry and bloody that he passed out directly.

 …

The next day, Lola, Eric's special correspondent, reported a detailed report on the terrorist attack.

And revealed the main messenger behind the terrorist attack.

Victoria Newman, Edgar Stan, and Anthony were disclosed.

It aroused great public opinion in a short time.

No one thought that the final murderer would be a public figure so familiar to the public.

The angry crowd vented their anger on the government and Anthony's business.

The government was attacked by protesters, and the stock price of Anthony's company plummeted.

The whole of New York and Eric became the center of the vortex again.

Mr. President is now too busy to take care of himself, because of this incident, inaction, allowing the murderer to go unpunished, appointing the murderer... several big hats were thrown at him, and he immediately couldn't explain it.

Victoria Newman was not recommended by him, he just acted as an intermediary and inserted Victoria in according to those people's wishes.

This is simply a disaster!

Picking up the phone, he dialed Eric's office, and in the end he was aggrieved and softened to Eric. He felt that the president was really aggrieved enough.

Either being abducted by aliens and superhumans, or being taken out of the pot.

Other companies, GM, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon, did not expect Eric to find out the mastermind behind the scenes so quickly and control public opinion, allowing so many people who support him to launch a public opinion offensive.

With a clear understanding of Eric's ability, he stopped thinking about making trouble for the other party.

Not only did he lose his mind, but he also secretly worried whether the other party would make trouble for him.

After all, the company has been in business for so many years, and it will definitely leave a lot of handles. If the other party gets it, it is easy to mess with yourself.

It is the most difficult to deal with when an interest group has both a gun and a pen.

These guys have begun to regret provoking Eric.
