Chapter 5: Hello, Iron Man

boom!!!

Lamborghini Limited Edition Poison swept by like a hurricane through the streets of downtown New York.

Like a spirited snake, the Lamborghini sped along the road past one car after another.

The hum of the engine was enough to trigger an adrenaline rush in most men.

On the other hand, a luxury car of the highest class can cause adrenaline in a woman.

Like the name of this car - Poison!

In the driver's seat, Alex holds the steering wheel with his right hand and presses against the window with his left.

The relaxed look did not look like a race at all, but rather like a leisurely walk along a deserted street.

At this time, Alex Rain changed into a black suit, receiving a silver Superman template.

The shape of his body has also undergone radical changes.

There were enough muscles under the suit to maintain the shape of the suit, creating a sense of nobility and at the same time refinement.

To this was added the aesthetics of brutal beauty.

Soon Alex arrived at the destination of the trip and looked at the wristwatch in his hand.

"Exactly seven o'clock."

After parking the car, Alex got out of it and walked onto the stage of the ballroom with a glass of wine in his hand.

Just by standing there, he attracted the attention of several women to strike up a conversation.

Many of them immediately recognized Alex and came over to raise a toast and greet each other.

Alex Rain, who came to pass the time, was happy to chat with these people, and soon a group of young and beautiful girls gathered around him.

Suddenly, he became the center of attention.

At Tony's ball, the best representatives of the country were almost always invited.

Of course, only men had requirements.

Tony had only two requirements for the women who came to the ball: to be young and to look good.

And nothing else.

Yes, just these two!

Even Alex was forced to admire Tony's genius, and all the women present, except those who accompanied their families, were impeccable.

All the others perfectly met these two requirements.

Even the waiters, who were only slightly worse in such cases, were all capable of attracting attention if they were put out on the street.

But, unfortunately, none of these people were suitable for Alex's rivals.

He didn't want to meet a few people of his own circle with whom he could share tips the next time he attended the ball.

Besides, with his current body.

None of the seven or eight girls surrounding him now would be able to withstand him.

Of course, all together - it was a different story.

Nearby, Tony, who also noticed the situation from Alex's side, said to Happy next to him: "This guy has my old style."

"Let's guess who he's taking home tonight."

"It's the C+ on the right or the leggy one on the left, to be honest, they seem a little familiar to me."

"Happy?"

It was only after Tony made his comment that he realized that Happy, who had just been next to him, had gone somewhere.

Instead, a stunningly beautiful Pepper appeared in a blue evening dress.

Tony lifted his sunglasses and examined Pepper standing in front of him.

"Very cute, this outfit suits you."

"You're so beautiful today."

"Really? I don't think I should be as leggy as Alex's."

Tony realized that all his comments had just gotten into Pepper's ears, and immediately defended himself: "No, no, no, these don't look as good as you, I mean, really, Pepper."

"Of course, after all, all these girls have had a night with you at one time or another."

"Really? I don't remember any of them."

Tony said with a displeased expression, then hurriedly changed the subject: "Who was that guy? He's even more popular than me."

"Alex, the most popular novelist of our time, he wrote that Terminator book that you were obsessed with a while ago."

"And also the person who now owns the largest number of shares of Stark Industries."

"Based on the current growth in Stark Industries' stock, I believe that after a while he will become the second richest man in the country."

"Who's number one?" Tony said, somewhat proudly and knowingly.

"It's you."

Pepper completely satisfied Tony's vanity.

"Unexpectedly."

Tony looked at Alex with some surprise, he had seen the Terminator before his abduction.

He was very intrigued by the situation in it.

There was more or less a hint of the Terminator why he himself was able to create Mark 1 in the cave.

"Maybe we should visit him."

"Really?"

Pepper couldn't believe her ears: Did Tony really take the initiative and visit someone?

This has never happened before.

"Of course, really, let's go."

Tony picked up two small glasses of wine and walked over to Pepper, taking her with him.

And Happy was already one step ahead, looking at Alex, who was surrounded by a group of women.

He couldn't stop being jealous.

When will I be able to become like him?

"Hey, this Mr. Alex, I'm a big fan of yours."

Happy's voice wasn't loud, but it was enough to attract the attention of Alex and them.

Alex instantly recognized the man as Tony's bodyguard and driver, Happy Hogan.

"These people are also my fans."

Alex gestured at the girls around him.

"Yes, we are all fans of Mr. Alex, would you like to join our circle of readers, sir?".

The woman who received a C+ grade from Tony leaned towards Alex and buried herself in his hand.

Faced with the teasing of another woman, Happy was confused and could only get a specially prepared novel "The Lord of the Rings" out of his pocket.

"Mr. Alex, please sign this for me."

Alex took the proffered "Lord of the Rings" and signed his name with a fountain pen from the inside pocket of his suit.

Obviously, Happy was a real fan.

As for those women around him...

Those who know, know.

After writing his name, Alex raised his glass and toasted Happy.

And then Tony's voice rang out: "Sorry, guys, I'm also a fan of a great writer."

"Don't you guys know?"

Looking into Tony's eyes, several people immediately realized what Tony meant, grabbed their things and moved away from Alex.

Alex gave Tony an indifferent look.

This guy, he dispersed all my fans as soon as he appeared...

Pepper immediately said, "Hello, Mr. Alex, I'm Pepper Potts, who called you."

"This is my boss, Tony Stark."

"This is Happy Hogan, the driver and bodyguard."

As soon as the space around him cleared, Happy also came up.

"Hello, Iron Man....".

Alex raised a toast to Tony from the bottom of his heart.
