The Wizard of Winterhold In Marvel Universe - Chapter 70
Hospital, special ward.
“Doctor Strange, I think you must be joking with me, right?”
A cynical voice came from the ward, with a relaxed tone as if the speaker was not a patient, but an irrelevant bystander.
“I remember someone saying to me that you are the best neurosurgeon in New York.”
But soon a slightly old-fashioned person responded to him.
“No, at least in this time period, I’m not the best, Mr. Stark.”
Stephen Strange glanced sympathetically at the mummy on the hospital bed.
“However, even if the top doctors in the world come here, I don’t think they can do better than me.”
If there is no nameplate attached to the head of the bed, it is estimated that no one would think that this man with a bandage wrapped around him, like Amumu and covered with steel bars, would be Tony Stark, who was once high-spirited, proud and confident.
When a man who once stood at the top suddenly fell to the bottom, Stephen couldn’t guess whether the expression under the layers of bandages would be anger, depression, or despair?
However, Tony’s voice is still steady, at least it proves that his sanity is still on the line.
“Really? … I see, thank you. Please let my assistant come in, I have something to explain to her. You should know Pepper, right?”
“Yes, no problem.”
For his calmness, even though Stephen was used to seeing the world in the hospital, he couldn’t help but feel a little admiration in his heart.
If you think in a different position, if you lose the hands that you depend on for a living, I’m afraid you would have collapsed long ago. Tony Stark can have today’s achievements, but also a well-deserved reputation.
Stephen didn’t bother the patient anymore, and walked out quietly.
In less than two minutes, Pepper slammed the door open and barged in:
“Tony… how could this be? You promised me that I would be fine!”
Tony turned his head to face her with difficulty, with helplessness in his tone:
“emmm… I may indeed have to admit that there was a little accident this time.”
Pepper looked worriedly at the bandages all over his body. He wanted to touch but didn’t dare. Tears almost overflowed:
“How could this be… By the way, does that Mr. Nolan Lee know? What did he say? I’ll call him and ask him for help!”
“No, Pepper. He sent me here.”
Tony couldn’t move his body, but his mind was still very clear:
“He had his own ideas. If he was willing to cure me, he would have done so long ago, instead of choosing to hand me over to Dr. Strange. Well, you go through the discharge procedures now, I don’t want to see this ward for a second, I need to go back to the South Shore of Los Angeles.”
“Go back? Are you serious?”
Pepper couldn’t help covering his mouth: “You can’t even move, what’s the use of going back?”
“No matter how long I stay here, it won’t make me able to walk. I have other things to solve.”
At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door of the ward:
“Mr. Stark, a gentleman named Nolan Lee wants to visit you. Can you let him in?”
“No, Miss Nurse, I think he will never reject me at this time.”
With the man’s voice, the door of the ward was pushed open again.
Nolan walked in despite the nurse’s obstruction, followed by a hurried nurse behind him.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Stark, this gentleman…”
The nurse bowed in fear and apologized, but Tony didn’t mean to blame, but comforted her:
“It doesn’t matter, he must want to go in somewhere, but no one can stop him. Your Excellency, are you here to see my joke?”
Nolan ignored the ridicule in his words, sat down on the chair next to him, picked up a banana and peeled it:
“what did the doctor say?”
“What else can I say? He suggested that I recall some happy things so that I can spend the rest of my life in a long time.”
“That’s it? Isn’t Strange the best doctor here?”
“Obviously he’s not good enough.”
Tony seemed to want to shrug his shoulders to express his regret.
But just as he twitched a bit, he couldn’t help crying out ‘Ouch’, which made Pepper panic again, and started chasing people with anger:
“Sir, if you are just here to visit and express your humanistic concern, then you can leave.”
“What’s your next plan?”
Nolan, as if he had never heard of it, continued to ask.
“Well, maybe I will hand over the company’s affairs to the new CEO, and I need to think about what to do next.”
“Wait,” Pepper couldn’t help but interject: “Who is the new CEO of the group? Why don’t I know?”
“That’s you, Pepper. I’ve decided to appoint you as Stark Group’s new CEO.”
Tony said to Nolan, “Dude, I know you have a magical pocket. Did you bring alcohol? It’s a time to celebrate, but it’s a pity that they won’t let patients drink.”
“Of course.”
“Are you crazy?” Nolan took out a bottle of champagne from the space bar when he was snatched away by the aggressive Pepper: “What is this called? How can I be the CEO?”
“Believe it or not, Pepper, but I really thought about it for a long time and thought about a lot of candidates, and you are the most suitable one. Look at me, the board obviously won’t allow a person who has difficulty speaking. Such an important position~www.mtlnovel.com~, right?”
“But… what about the original CEO?”
Considering Nolan’s presence, Pepper couldn’t help but vaguely mention it.
But Tony didn’t shy away.
“That’s none of your business. I’ve handed it over to Roddy. When the company starts his memorial service, I’ll announce your appointment to the directors.”
“Hey, don’t act like a will.”
Nolan clapped his hands aside: “I’m very happy to see you so energetic. But you don’t need to be so pessimistic…”
“Well said! I was waiting for you to say that, dear Li!”
Tony, who was still sick just now, suddenly came to his senses: “Shake his hand for me to express my thanks, Pepper.”
After Pepper did as he asked, he continued:
“I knew that the miraculous Master Mage came to see me at this time, and he must have come prepared.”
“Do you want to wave your wand now and make me feel better immediately; or do you need a team of adventurers to break into the dragon’s lair or something and bring back some herbs for me?”
Nolan scratched his head. In fact, he just had an idea after hearing Tony’s current situation: “None of them. Actually, I’m not sure if this method is effective…”
“Don’t test me with these words, Nolan, I also grew up watching those legendary comics and storybooks.”
Is Tony very confident, apparently taking him as the old grandpa in those stories: “You just need to show me the way, and I’ll do it. It’s that simple.”
“Okay, then listen carefully. In Nepal, at the foot of the Himalayas, there is a small village called Kama Taj…”
