Chapter 46 Walter’s Real Boss

Kevin didn't know how he finally got off the stage.

Anyway, after getting off the stage, Kevin felt that he had lost all his strength and energy, and just wanted to find a place to rest.

Kevin was a little impressed by himself for being able to think of words to defend the motherland when he was about to anger him.

He never thought that he could say so many nonsense with his eyes open. Maybe this is the instinct of being an actor.

The stage now belongs to the motherland.

The motherland, who has a lot of experience in interacting with fans, firmly attracted everyone's attention.

Kevin also took this opportunity to run out to rest and watch the motherland perform.

However, while watching the performance, Kevin also found Ashley, who was responsible for all this.

"What's going on?"

Kevin asked Ashley first.

Ashley was sweating profusely, and she said in defense: "I... I don't know, Homelander clearly said that it was nothing..."

"Okay, don't embarrass her, Homelander didn't say anything to her these two days."

While the two were talking, Maeve, who also walked down the stage, came over to defend Ashley:

"She didn't know what happened on the plane at all, or she didn't know it completely, so she made arrangements based on past experience."

The reason for the accident today was very simple, because Shenhai didn't know what happened on the plane before he went there, so if Ashley wanted to know the specific situation on the plane, she could only ask Maeve and Homelander.

Maeve was in a bad mood that day, so she didn't answer Ashley's questions.

As for Homelander, maybe because he had an idol burden, or he thought it was not a big deal, he didn't tell anyone about his threat to those people on the plane.

This led Ashley to assume that everyone would like Homelander and Maeve, so she didn't do any research and started preparing for this thank-you party directly.

This can't be blamed on Ashley.

According to the survey of the Water Group, Homelander now has the largest number of fans and supporters in the United States, firmly occupying the top spot in the superhero rankings.

In America, you may not know who the president is, but you will definitely know Homelander.

With such a reputation and so many fans, basically no one will not like Homelander.

So even without an investigation, Ashley can know that at least half of the people on the plane will be fans of Homelander.

If Homelander had not collapsed in front of these fans.

"…Okay, anyway, the final result is good."

Knowing what happened, Kevin did not embarrass Ashley.

After all, if Homelander refused to say, what could Ashley do? If he really wanted to get to the bottom of it, Homelander would probably be the first to deal with her.

Everyone is a worker, and Kevin has no need to continue to embarrass Ashley.

In any case, after this incident, Homelander should have a better impression of Kevin, and should not attack Kevin casually in the future, and may even treat Kevin as a confidant.

Well, maybe it's a bit too optimistic to think so.

But even if we think about the worst, Homelander shouldn't do anything to Kevin. After all, Kevin helped him restore his image and increased his reputation, which is a real thing.

Unless Homelander is really selfish to that extent and thinks that Kevin is embarrassing him by speaking for him today...

Then Kevin really has no choice.

Kevin lay down to rest in the backstage, and Ashley quickly went to do other things.

Maeve sat down in a random place without being photographed, took out a lady's cigarette and smoked it by herself.

Smoke filled the backstage.

But Kevin didn't rest for long.

A few minutes later, Madeline called and said that she wanted Kevin to go to the meeting room of the seven-member team upstairs.

She also seriously emphasized that Kevin should go there alone first.

...

Kevin couldn't ignore the boss's words, so after Madeline's call, Kevin took the elevator straight to the 99th floor.

Arriving at the door of the conference room, the door of the conference room opened automatically. A figure sat in the seat of the motherland, with his back to the door and looking out the window.

Hearing someone coming in, the person turned his chair and faced Kevin.

It was a very gentle black man, wearing a suit, with an elegant temperament, like an orthodox British gentleman.

He turned around and was looking at Kevin.

Damn, Uncle Fried Chicken? !

Kevin was also shocked when he saw the man for the first time.

Of course, Uncle Fried Chicken is just a nickname for this person. In fact, this guy's identity in the black robe world is Stan Edgar.

He is the CEO of the Water Group, that is, the person in charge of the entire Water Group.

The real big boss behind the scenes.

Kevin didn't expect that the reason why Madeline asked him to come to the conference room was to meet the big boss behind the Water Group.

However, in the memory of the deep sea, Kevin did not find the scene of meeting Edgar, that is to say, Kevin should not know Edgar now.

So after a little daze, Kevin said to Edgar:

"Uh... that, I don't care who you are, but you are sitting in the seat of the motherland."

"Well, I didn't expect your first sentence would be this."

Edgar patted the armrest of the seat of the motherland and looked up and said:

"And I don't think you really care about the motherland's thoughts."

Edgar's expression has always been calm, including when he told Kevin about this matter, he had no expression.

Kevin looked at Edgar and felt a heavy pressure on an ordinary person for the first time.

That's right, Edgar is an ordinary person, not a superhuman, at least according to the information Kevin has obtained now.

But such an ordinary person, just a look and a word, can make the motherland obedient.

Even to other superheroes, he also has absolute deterrence.

Perhaps this is the real boss.

As an ordinary person, standing at the top of the world.

After looking at Edgar seriously for a while, Kevin asked:

"Sorry, I haven't asked yet, you are..."

"Stan Edgar, I think you should have heard of my name."

Edgar introduced himself lightly.

Shenhai had never seen Edgar, but he knew the name of his boss. After all, which employee would not know the name of his boss?

So after hearing Edgar's name, Kevin immediately showed shock and excitement:

"You are... the boss? Um... I'm sorry I don't know..."

"Okay, put away your performance, you don't really care about my identity, right."

Edgar interrupted Kevin again before he finished speaking.

He politely made a gesture to Kevin to invite him to sit down.

Looking at this polite old man, Kevin's excitement on his face also subsided.

In the life of a business tycoon like Edgar, what kind of actors has he not seen?

Kevin's poor acting skills may really not be enough in front of him.

In this case, Kevin didn't need to show too much excitement.

He followed Edgar's instructions, pulled a chair and sat next to Edgar, and then said:

"Okay, maybe what happened just now was just a show, but I'm really curious, why do you want to see me?"

"Very good, it looks like we can get to the point."

Edgar didn't respond to Kevin's question directly, but took out a few photos.

Kevin looked closely and saw that it was the photo of Starlight in the Crime Analysis Department. The photo should have been taken on the day Kevin asked her to locate Maeve and Homelander.

Edgar pushed the photo in front of Kevin and smiled:

"Before we get down to business, please answer me a question, why did you want to know the whereabouts of Homelander and Maeve that day?"
