Curt said, "Boss, I have high hopes for Peter. Perhaps I can have him join my lizard serum research. He just gave me some inspiration."
"I think it's precisely because of the youthful, unconstrained imagination that one can find that easily overlooked point amidst complex research."
Aaron glanced at him, not expecting Curt still hadn't forgotten his lizard serum.
After a moment's thought, considering he had taken Mary and was about to take in Gwen, he decided to give Peter a chance, allowing him to embark on a different path.
Perhaps there was even a chance for him to become Spider-Man early?
Aaron nodded. "You decide on this matter yourself. I've said that professional matters are handled by professionals. Your research project is entirely your responsibility."
Curt nodded.
He had high hopes for Peter and decided to make Peter the main force in the lizard serum research, asssisting him in completing the final breakthrough.
If the lizard serum and the limb regeneration potion were combined, could they exert a more powerful effect, thereby leading to the research of limb regeneration potion version 3?
Of course, the lizard serum was just his casual research project. What he really needed to do was the task Aaron had assigned.
There were still many areas in biomedicine that needed to be explored. For example, a more advanced anti-aging potion.
And the human physical enhancement reagent that everyone dreamed of.
He still had a lot of things to do.
He would start to train Peter now, hoping he could inherit his mantle and continue to shine for Osborn Industries, for Aaron.
"Boss, this is Miss Gwen Stacy, a very capable assistant."
"Boss, I recall that you still need a few secretaries. I believe with Miss Stacy's ability, she can definitely handle this position."
Curt changed the subject, suddenly bringing the conversation back on track to recommend Gwen to Aaron.
Gwen herself was bewildered, and also very surprised.
Me? Aaron's secretary?
Aaron looked at Gwen and nodded. "I've seen your file. You remind me of my first secretary."
"Is it Miss Felicia?"
Gwen had learned about Aaron's legendary story and knew about Felicia, who was called Aaron's shadow and the second-in-command of Osborn Industries.
Some even said that, under Aaron's authorization, Felicia could control the entire Osborn Industries.
What's even more amazing is that Felicia is also a student at Empire State University.
A few days ago, she applied for early graduation but was rejected by the school, which stated there was no need to worry about her studies and grades.
For outstanding alumni, the school leaders will make appropriate arrangements for everything according to the actual situation.
Everyone looks up to Felicia as a role model and feels honored because of her. Gwen is no exception.
Aaron nodded. "When I first met her, she impressed me deeply with her actions."
Aaron savored the memory. Felicia was quite inferior back then, but she was very diligent and serious.
He said, "You give me the same feeling I had when I first saw her. Oh, I'm sorry, please don't mind. You are also very outstanding, absolutely no less than Felicia."
"If you're willing, would you like to have a good chat with your senior about work experience? I think she would be very happy to cooperate with you."
Happiness came so suddenly that Gwen was completely unprepared.
She nodded repeatedly. "I'm willing."
...
"Gwen became Mr. Aaron's secretary just like that? Damn it, why wasn't it me? I'm clearly very capable too." A girl said, full of unwillingness.
"I'm so envious. She got the attention of Professor Curt and Mr. Aaron on her first day. In the future, she'll even get to spend every day with Mr. Aaron. Is she the illegitimate daughter of the Goddess of Luck?"
"I'm going to study hard from now on, get into Empire State University, and then join Osborn Industries."
Everyone was envious of Gwen. In comparison, Peter from earlier was just so-so.
Mary leaned against the wall, holding a mirror and touching up her makeup. Her peripheral vision catching sight of Gwen. There was no hint of jealousy in her heart. After all, she was already far ahead.
Even if she was just Aaron's lover, Gwen would have to call her the boss's wife when she saw her.
Recalling that scene, Mary felt incredibly excited.
She quickly touched up her makeup, straightened her somewhat wrinkled clothes, and pulled up her collar to cover her discolored neck.
Suppressing the discomfort in her body, she gazed at Aaron, her eyes practically dripping with adoration.
He was too strong, like a wild bull.
Such a powerful man was too much for her alone.
Mary naturally wouldn't think of anything frivolous, it was completely unrealistic. She could guarantee that if Aaron only had her, someone would definitely die.
Just then—
Peter came over and asked, "Hey Mary, where did you go just now? It's such a shame, you missed a lot of cool stuff."
Whether it was an illusion or not, Peter felt that Mary was even more charming and alluring. Every smile and frown seemed to steal his soul.
Peter looked at Gwen on the stage, then at Mary, both were quite good.
Harry also walked up, glanced at Mary, and was instantly captivated by her. He hadn't noticed such a wonderful woman before.
From Harry's experience, Mary was simply every man's dream girl.
He was about to speak when he suddenly noticed something off about Mary's gaze.
Following her line of sight, he saw that her watery eyes were looking at Gwen?
Aaron!
Harry immediately put away his thoughts.
Mary gently raised a finger, softly tucking the fiery, passionate strands of hair behind her ear, revealing her freshly moisturized, rosy cheeks.
"Is that so? That's really a shame. I had to go to the restroom just now, but I happened to see Mr. Aaron and chatted with him for a short while."
Mary smiled, yet there was a subtle attitude that kept others at a distance.
She still looked at Aaron, as if he were the only person in the entire world.
Aaron had already conquered her body and mind, from outside to in, leaving no room for anyone else.
Peter didn't notice the change. He excitedly said, "Mr. Curt just said he wants me to join his research project and introduce me as Dr. Otto's student. Gosh, I feel like I'm dreaming."
"Congratulations, Parker, you've finally gotten what you wished for." Mary offered insincere congratulations.
She said with an unclear meaning, "You're right, everything that happened today feels like a dream, and that's great."
Peter nodded heavily.
Mary agreed with him.
Harry's lips twitched.
No way, boss.
In just a few tens of minutes, you got the best woman in our class?
He suddenly realized why Mary had been leaning against the wall the whole time.
It seemed his uncle showed no pity for her.
