"I originally had the idea of starting a company, but because I couldn't stay here all the time and didn't have someone I trusted to manage it for me, I kept delaying the decision, until - I met you!"
Her hands were soft like tender shoots, her fingers like green onion roots.
Samuel held her hand and said seriously: "I need you to manage this company for me!"
Women don't like problems.
So Samuel used 'need' instead of 'hope'.
Susan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, a little hesitant.
"Actually, I investigated you."
"You investigated me?"
"You and your brother Jonathan grew up in New York. Both your parents were Doctors. Your mother unfortunately died in a car accident when Jonathan was nine. Your Father became a drunkard and gambler because of your mother's death and was imprisoned for accidentally killing a mob loan shark."
"Your brother has a high talent for building, repairing, and driving cars. He successfully repaired a transmission at 15, and the next day your Father bought him his first modified old race car."
Susan's brother Jonathan will become the Human Torch in the Fantastic Four in the future. Purely in terms of ability, he is considered the strongest among the Fantastic Four.
His body can emit Fire, absorb heat, can unleash a Nova-level explosion of one million degrees Fahrenheit, and can also achieve supersonic Flight.
He is rebellious, does his own thing, and is a very individualistic person.
With personality, there are stories.
Compared to his sister Susan's steadfastness, his emotional story is worth telling slowly and in detail over the course of a chapter.
"I hope you understand that this is not a hasty decision, nor do I have the idea of using this matter to affect our relationship. Instead, I truly feel that you are trustworthy and capable of helping me manage the company well!"
What bad intentions could Samuel have? He just wanted to maintain his relationship with Susan and prevent others from ruining it.
Susan didn't blame Samuel for investigating her.
Of course, if it weren't for starting a company, that would be another matter.
After all, even when making friends or dating, you can just ask if you want to know something. Private investigation is an invasion of privacy and freedom, and it's also disrespectful to her!
"What kind of company are you planning to start?"
"A technology company."
The main purpose of this company is to 'arrange' for Susan, as well as to monitor the trajectory and timing of the Sun storm.
Once the abilities of the Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer, and Galactus are obtained, this company will no longer be necessary.
At that time, when the time is right and their feelings are in place, he will definitely take Susan away from this World.
In the following days.
Susan accompanied Samuel, running around, almost fully participating in the company's registration, site selection, and decoration, contributing a lot.
She is not a vase!
Both her parents were Doctors, she has that intelligent gene, and she herself is smart and eager to learn. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to attract the admiration of Mister Fantastic Reed Richards and Dr. Victor Doom just with her beautiful appearance.
Samuel is different; he is very superficial, and only appearance can attract him.
As for the inside?
That's something to consider only when the outside is no longer attractive.
"Ring, ring, ring..."
The phone rang; it was Susan calling.
Samuel motioned for the White Queen and Reed Richards, who had finished organizing the equipment, to wait, and answered the phone with a smile.
"I was just about to call you."
"I'm leaving for a few days. My phone might not be reachable then. You'll have to be responsible for the company's recruitment alone. I trust you!"
"Hmm... hmm... Yes, I'm leaving soon."
"Okay, I'll contact you when I get back."
"Bye."
Samuel put away his phone with a peach-blossom smile, motioned for Reed Richards and Benjamin to hold onto the equipment, put one arm around the White Queen, and grabbed Reed Richards' shoulder with the other hand.
"Let's go!"
[Void]
The sudden appearance of Samuel and the others instantly attracted the attention of the Lokis.
Reed Richards and Benjamin were dumbfounded. They thought Samuel would use the Time Controller, but they didn't expect to be brought to a strange place and surrounded by a group of oddly dressed guys in the blink of an eye.
"What is this place? Who - who are they?"
Reed Richards and Benjamin couldn't help but look at Samuel.
Samuel waved to Old Loki: "These are Reed Richards and Benjamin, who are responsible for repairing those spaceships. I'll leave the arrangements to you."
"No problem. Come with me. I'll arrange a place for you to stay first."
Old Loki nodded and looked at the two.
"Wait, first tell us what this place is -"
Reed Richards pressed Samuel for an answer.
Samuel, who had just instructed Old Loki, was already gone, and the White Queen was also gone.
[Marvel Main Timeline World]
Madripoor, Lower Town, in a bar that wasn't officially open, Samuel quietly appeared with the White Queen.
Dottie Underwood, who was wiping the tables, suddenly felt someone behind her.
Turn, draw gun, aim.
In one smooth motion!
"Who!"
As Samuel looked at Dottie Underwood aiming her gun and was about to speak, a bright, shining figure had already blocked his path.
Protecting the boss immediately when there is danger, this is the awareness a good and competent subordinate should have!
"It's us."
Looking at the shocked Dottie Underwood, Samuel patted the White Queen's shoulder in front of him.
In diamond form, very hard.
Not at all as extremely smooth-shouldered as usual.
