The Father of American Comics Superheroes
Chapter 109: Not interested

Except for the smiling Howard and Maria, everyone else in the living room froze.

Without waiting for Mike to object, Tony exclaimed, “Old man, you’re kidding me! Godfather, I’m this old, you let me recognize the godfather?”

Mike raised his eyebrows and waited for Howard’s explanation.

“Tony!” Howard snapped and said solemnly to Mike, “Mike, you’re a good father.”

Mike nodded and said, “That I admit.”

The corners of Tony’s mouth twitched, so shameless.

“Tony …… is a troubled man, like me when I was young, often offended.”

Mike nodded his head, which he also admitted.

Howard looked at an upset Tony and said, “So I don’t want to be sent away to be reunited with me just after I die.”

“You’re ……” Mike looked Howard up and down and said, “Isn’t that fine?”

Howard gave a bitter laugh and said, “It’s coming.”

Speaking of this, his face flashed with pain.

Maria smiled tenderly at him and held his hand.

Howard exchanged a gentle glance with her and said, “I have cancer, it’s already in the advanced stage, and I don’t have much time left.”

“What?” Tony looked at Howard in horror and laughed dryly, “Old, old man …… no, Dad! You’re lying to me, right?”

Howard calmly looked at Tony, shook his head and said, “I want to, Tony.”

Tony stared at Howard for several seconds, and after finally determining that he wasn’t playing a trick on him, he sat down on the couch as if he had lost his soul and settled down.

Maria gently hugged Tony, while Howard looked at Mike, waiting for Mike’s answer.

In fact, Howard has been very satisfied.

If it wasn’t for Mike, he and his wife were killed four years ago, and now has lived four more years, has handed over Stark Industries to Tony step by step, and lived a few years of leisurely life, he has no regrets.

However, he is still uneasy, because Tony is too much like him.

Although smart and recognized as a genius scientist in the world, he is arrogant, poisonous, arrogant, self…

He knows very well, such a character is too easy to offend people, and the world now is different from decades ago. He doesn’t want Tony to be accidentally killed because of his character

Although he had confidence in Tony, but he felt that he should still leave an insurance policy for the boy.

So, in his eyes, Mike became a perfect candidate.

With powerful abilities, he usually acts low-key and can always stand up at critical moments. The most important thing is that Mike is a perfect father in his eyes.

He has not met, can have the super-powered children, teach so obedient father.

These kids, humble and polite, never initiate trouble, much less use their powers to do bad things. In the event of injustice, they will also ignore the danger to save people…

Then he taught……

He looked at Tony and sighed.

Looking at Howard’s expression, Mike can also guess the other side’s idea, but to become Tony’s godfather, forget it, he will be pissed off.

So, he shook his head and said firmly, “I’m sorry, I can’t accept.”

Hearing this, Eric and Charles sighed with relief.

Howard and Maria were very disappointed, and even Howard couldn’t help but ask again, saying, “Really don’t you want to consider it? Tony may have a bad personality, but he’s definitely a good kid.”

Mike has never seen such Howard, but this may be the father……

“Dad!”

Tony looked at Howard, a mess in his head.

He was going to be sent out like this? And in adulthood?

That’s ridiculous!

Howard looked into Mike’s eyes, saw that Mike did not relent in the slightest, and the eagerness in his eyes slowly faded away, then lost his voice and laughed.

He seemed to have lost his original demeanour because of Tony.

Seeing this, Mike opened his mouth and said, “Howard, you should have confidence in Tony, he can live so big and has not been killed, his survival ability is still very good.”

Howard nodded, and then frowned.

That sounded reasonable, but there seemed to be something wrong there.

Just then, Mike continued, “But how can I say that you and I are also considered friends, Tony, I will help you as a friend.”

Howard finally showed a smile.

Maria said gratefully, “Thank you Mike, you are really an angel.”

In her eyes, since Mike saved the couple, they have been equated with an angel.

Howard sighed with relief and felt he should give Mike some gift before he left, such as a substantial amount of savings, or some shares or something.

Howard squeezed Tony’s shoulder and said, “Tony, call him uncle when you see each other in the future.”

“Hmm? Uncle? Him?”

The corners of Tony’s mouth twitched, he hadn’t gotten over the emotion of his father having cancer, and there was an extra uncle?

He was a young man of almost twenty-five, brought by his father to recognize his uncle……

Eh, wait.

He looked at Charles and Eric, and felt a little strange.

If you call this guy uncle, don’t these two brats, and can’t call themselves uncles?

Moreover, this guy is more than forty years old, counting the generation, it does seem to be the uncle generation ……

When a person’s mind is skewed, it will turn to a position that he or she also could not anticipate, and when a person reacts, he or she has already made a decision to regret a lifetime, or a happy bang.

“Uncle, uncle.”

When Tony called out, he froze, then came back to his senses.

Holy shit, what did I just call out? What did I just say?

His mind was a little confused now.

For a while it was his father who had cancer, the next it was about calling Uncle Mike and then it was Charles and Eric who called him uncle…..

Tony’s face kept changing.

But Howard and Maria looked very happy.

“Dad? Got a guest?”

Just then, Clark returned home from school, he was surprised looking at them, but still politely to greet them, and then look to Charles and Eric, squeezed his eyes and said: “You guys are back? Did you have fun on this trip?”

“It was okay.”

The two responded, and Charles reached out and nodded, and after connecting the two through their abilities, he told Clark what had just happened, about his own trip.

Clark gave a faint nod and a smile.

Mike looked at the clock on the wall and got up, “It’s getting late, stay here and have dinner.”

He patted Clark’s shoulder and said, “Entertain the guests.”

Clark nodded.

Mike went into the kitchen and ate as many guests as he could after quickly cooking a good meal.

While the Howard family was leaving, Charles took Howard’s hand, smiled and pulled him aside and whispered something to him.

Howard’s face suddenly became a little ugly, and walked out with a heavy heart.
