I'm starting a mythology craze at Marvel

Chapter 30 You’ve begged me so much, how can I not reveal my cards?

Natasha felt very strange and awkward.

As soon as she started work today, she felt something very strange.

The weird part is her current ostensible boss, that narcissist Tony Stark.

Today he seemed like a different person and was very attentive to me.

It wasn't the kind of attentiveness he showed to me in the past just for the sake of sex, but the kind of, how should I put it, the look of him asking something of me.

Natasha couldn't understand why a billionaire like Tony Stark would need her help.

What Natasha could not understand the most was that every time she took off her high heels and let her little feet in black stockings relax for a while.

Tony Stark's eyes always look over here, but it can be seen from his eyes that it is not the kind of feeling a man has towards a woman's beautiful legs.

Rather, it was a feeling of struggle, as if hesitating about something and appearing extremely painful.

These changes in Tony Stark were obviously abnormal, so Natasha found an opportunity to secretly report the matter to Xia Ling.

But what confused Natasha even more was that when she reported this, the director's first reaction was to laugh.

It was as if he would not stop laughing until he died. Natasha didn't know why this made the director laugh, but as a subordinate, she could only wait quietly.

Fortunately, the director did not behave strangely after laughing, otherwise Natasha would have to think about whether the way she opened the door today was correct, or why the people she met became so strange.

Since the director has ordered her to continue observation and to reveal her identity depending on the circumstances.

Then she would continue to observe, but the order to identify herself according to the circumstances made Natasha roll her eyes. Was this unclear order given to her? Was the intention being to let her take the blame?
Natasha returned to work with full of doubts and a little uneasiness.

She tried to remain calm, but Tony Stark's abnormal behavior was like a fog that she could not ignore.

Every time Natasha saw Tony Stark's struggling eyes, she felt uncomfortable all over, as if she was being stared at by some dirty creature.

Fortunately, Natasha is an elite agent who cannot be more elite. What kind of big scene has she not seen?
Although it was a little uncomfortable, it was still far from what I had experienced before.

When Natasha casually took off her high heels again to give her tired feet a moment's rest, Tony Stark suddenly walked over, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Natasha quickly adjusted her posture, trying to make her expression appear natural, but she felt a little anxious inside for some reason.

She watched Tony Stark's reaction calmly, ready to respond to any situation that might occur.

"Natasha, I…I want to talk to you about something."

Tony Stark's voice was trembling, and it seemed that he mustered up a lot of courage to speak.

"Mr. Stark, did something happen today? I noticed that you haven't been quite right all day. If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly. After all, you are my boss."

Boss. Hearing this word, Tony Stark felt a little uncomfortable.

On paper, he is indeed the secretary's boss, but the magic conch asks him to be her dog, or to lick her feet if he fails. So who is the boss?
"Natalie, you have always been one of my most trusted assistants, although sometimes our relationship is... well, a little complicated. But today, I want to say that I have discovered some secrets, well, very incredible secrets."

Natasha's eyes suddenly became sharp. Did this playboy discover her identity?
That's right, the search for the magic conch was done too crudely and left too many loopholes, so it was normal for a smart man like Tony Stark to doubt him.

Moreover, the director did not say that it must be kept confidential. Instead, we can reveal our true colors under appropriate circumstances.

So, do you want to reveal your cards?

"Boss, I'm just a secretary. If you want to tell me the company's secrets, I don't want to hear it. This is not something I should be exposed to."

There was a hint of caution and distance in Natasha's words. She deliberately used the terms "boss" and "secretary" to emphasize the workplace boundaries between them, while also testing Tony Stark's reaction.

Tony Stark was surprised when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure. He realized that Natasha might have misunderstood what he meant, or was deliberately avoiding something.

So he changed his way of speaking and continued:
"Natasha, you misunderstood. The secret I am about to tell you does not directly concern the company, but... is closely related to the safety of this world."

The safety of the world? Has he really discovered his identity?
"Mr. Stark, I am just an ordinary person who lives on salary. It is not my responsibility to deal with major events such as world safety. You should seek help from others."

Natasha still didn't plan to reveal her true colors at this time. What if she had misunderstood?

The famous Black Widow's undercover identity was revealed. Wouldn't she become a joke in the industry?
Although Natasha didn't care much about her reputation, if she was exposed like this, how would the new director view her?

After careful consideration, Natasha crossed her legs and looked at Tony with an indifferent look, as if to say that the safety of the world had nothing to do with a small employee like her.

Tony Stark looked at Natasha's expression, which seemed to be relaxed but wary, and couldn't help feeling anxious.

How come this person has been talking for so long but still can't understand?

Can't people have more trust in each other?

"Natasha, I know you may think that what I said sounds ridiculous, but please believe me, every word I said is true. The world is facing an unprecedented crisis, and I... I may need your help."

Tony Stark's voice was low and sincere, and his eyes revealed an unprecedented seriousness.

"Mr. Stark, I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you are saying. You are a superhero, but I am really an ordinary person. I'm sorry that I can't help you."

Natasha shook her head again, turned her crossed legs and refused to respond to Tony.

Natasha planned to first find out why Tony became like this, and then decide whether to confront him or not depending on the situation. This way, she could take the initiative and avoid being passive.

Tony stared at Natasha's crossed legs, and made a decision with a determined heart.

At this moment, Natasha felt a chill.
