Chapter 270
Chapter 270
"Tomorrow must be the end of the world, that's why my dad attended the parent-teacher meeting, but your family didn't come!"
These were the first words Peter Parker's friends said when they saw him.
Despite being the same age, the other party's vocabulary and sentence usage are much better than Peter's.
Peter's expression was much simpler, he just raised a smile: "Harry, it's great that your father can come."
Harry Osborn frowned pretending to be mature, and uttered a short voice learned from adults:
"Um...it just shows that you don't know my dad. He's not the kind of family member who would dress up as Santa Claus and deliver presents on the eve of the eve."
"You swear you won't make fun of it again!" Peter's eyes widened.
Discovering that each year's "Santa Claus" is actually Ben Parker is a total accident and a crushing blow, and Peter only tells his best friends - and his sister.
Although he and his sister Rhea have only seen each other very few times, he still likes Rhea very much.
In Peter's memory, good things will happen when Rhea returns home.She'll bring lots of fun, tasty novelties, and both Ben and May will be delighted.
In this sense, Rhea is closer to the concept of "Santa Claus".
This may explain why Peter looks forward to her return so much, and never feels Rhea is a stranger.
Of course, Peter didn't get close to Rhea just for these "benefits". They are a family, and Peter sincerely hopes that they can always be reunited.He hates separation.
"sorry."
Upon getting Harry's apology, Peter Parker immediately forgave his friend, because he was more eager to share his joy than to find fault with Harry.
"Forget it, at least Uncle Ben won't be like 'Santa Claus' and find out I'm a bad boy and stop giving presents."
Peter exhaled, and then straightened his chest again, "But this time, my parent is my sister."
Harry Osborn rolled his eyes, "I'm sure I already know, you've said it about 100 times."
This sentence pierced Peter's vanity and made him feel embarrassed.He defended himself:
"You should cherish me, Harry, I'm the only one in this school who won't make fun of you about Harry Potter."
The other young and immature face instantly became angry.
"Harry" is a very common name.There is also a "Prince Harry" in the British royal family.The coincidence of the same name is nothing.
The reason why Harry Osborn has received special attention is not only because his name collides with the protagonist of this movie that is deeply loved by the whole school, but also because his name is like the protagonist, but his appearance and style are close to the opposite of the inside. Supporting role "Draco Malfoy".
"Draco" is a common story role configuration, always showing his teeth and claws, trying to find trouble for the protagonist, and then being defeated by the protagonist who is the child of destiny.
Adults with mature ideas may still find some shining points from this role.
After all, "Harry Potter" is a story about a child as the main character, and a "bad boy" can't be so bad, and the real villain is the big devil "Voldemort"!
But children's perspectives are much purer, they only see "Harry Potter" being picked on all the time.
Of course, Harry Osborn did not dominate the school, but like "Draco Malfoy", he had an extremely rich and powerful father, who accounted for almost half of the investment in the school in Queens, New York.
Add that blonde hair, pale face, always pursed lips in displeasure - it's easy to associate him with the character.
Except for the transfer Peter Parker, no kid could get along with Harry Osborn.
It wasn't that they deliberately alienated and bullied Harry Osborn. Osborn's reputation in New York was no less than that of Stark, but Harry himself was picky and irritable, which made it hard to resist.No one likes to be offended.
It was strange that Peter could accept it.
The contrast between his good temper and Harry Osborn's personality makes it easy to feel that Peter is being bullied.
The story spread from small student groups and eventually reached Barbra in Hollywood through the Streisand children.
That's why Barbra Streisand reminded Rhea—
Even the teacher would say: "When Peter turned around, the seats in the class had already been booked in advance. But we couldn't let Peter sit in a row by himself, so we readjusted.
After Peter sat next to Harry, he basically formed a team with Harry to complete the group task, and he would not go to other classmates..."
There was even a faint hint of apology in his tone.
If Ben and Mei were here, they probably wouldn't have paid attention to this detail.But Rhea was keenly aware of the tendency in the teacher's words.
Regardless of the factual circumstances, it was generally believed at school that Peter and Harry Osborn were bad friends.
Rhea smiled and did not comment for the time being.
Because it was the first time for her to attend the parent-teacher meeting, the teacher introduced a lot responsibly, even overly responsible.
A large part of this enthusiasm is because the school knows that she is "Rhea Nolen".
"However, we will organize more and larger team activities in the future, encourage children to make more friends, and open up social circles..." Seeing the corners of Rhea's eyes curled up, the teacher couldn't help but say more, trying to solve the problem for her .
Rhea said: "It's okay. You don't need many friends, the main thing is to find the right one."
Her kind and gentle attitude made the teacher relieved, and then she was more eager to gain her approval and satisfaction.It's not just for the fame and fortune that Rhea Noren's title represents.
And more because Rhea is likable.
The Parker family is indeed very friendly, but the Parker couple's background and occupations are very ordinary. People will feel doubly honored that Rhea Nolen, who has become famous and worth a lot of money, can be so approachable.
And she is really charming, the teacher took a few extra glances.
Although Rhea wore a women's round hat to cover her iconic golden hair, she also took a pair of glasses to cover her eyes of different colors, and a khaki wool scarf wrapped around her neck, covering half of her face. Wear it with a sweater, jeans and ankle boots.
This is successfully making her a lot more low-key.
But this British neutral dress still stands out among the exquisitely dressed and elegant "mothers" in another form.
People can easily find her in the crowd.And once you know her identity, you will feel that everything about her is full of charm.Even if Rhea was wearing her mother's old clothes.
In addition to Rhea, there is another person who is more eye-catching among the parents and steals the limelight.
There are not many men in parent-teacher associations, and the proportion of "fathers" in parent-teacher associations is usually not high. There are many reasons behind this. After marriage and family establishment, society assigns more functions of "family care" to women.
A mother's job is to complete various school and family tasks, and a father's occasional break from work to participate in parent-child activities will add countless points to him.
And this man is the most outstanding and outstanding among all the "fathers" who were present or even those who were not present, so he will naturally attract the attention of countless "mothers" and gain the admiration and appreciation from the opposite sex.
As the father of Harry, another child in the teacher's mouth, Norman Osborn's appearance is eye-catching.
He was wearing an expensive tailored suit, but the hard-faced drapey fabric and extremely simple design made him look incompatible with the delicate and warm style of the Parents' Association.
Combined with his hard facial features and neat back combed hairstyle, he looks like he is here for a business meeting.Or maybe he was meant for this—
"That's right, making friends requires screening, otherwise it is ineffective social interaction."
Norman Osborn joined the topic of Rhea and the teacher. He walked out of the encirclement of those rich wives without any hesitation. This powerful elite who was stingy in expressing his emotions evoked a smile here:
"I'm surprised. Harry, my son should be friends with Peter."
He was obviously talking to Rhea, so Rhea had to respond: "Then maybe you don't care about your children enough, Mr. Osborne."
The man's smile remained the same, but he showed a little apology and regret just right:
"It was really my fault. I was busy with work after my wife died, and I thought it was a solution to my grief, and I neglected Harry. He couldn't suffer less than I did, and I shouldn't have—"
This is a vivid and sympathetic family story.
The teacher accepted Norman Osborn's statement almost instantly, and even understood Harry Osborn's behavior after entering school, and comforted him: "It's not all your fault, Mr. Osborn. Don't be too self-conscious." Sorry, Harry needs you."
Norman Osborn cheered up: "I guess it's not too late, I'll try to make it up to Harry."
"But now, Harry doesn't trust me, he trusts Peter even more." Then Norman turned his head to Rhea and made a sincere request:
"I think I need a little help." He looked at Rhea.Of course, he watched Rhea from start to finish.
'fraud. '
The word came out of Rhea's mind.
The mature man in front of him was polite, but Rhea had seen another face of him.
In order to seize the dominance of the weapon system, he spent a lot of money, industrial chain, technology and other resources in the auction, and even gave up some subsidiaries altogether.
He doesn't care about those assets, technology, employees.Because Norman Osborn knew he was going to get more from Rhea.
Behind this man's smile was belligerence, bloodthirsty, and ruthlessness.
Compared with the arms of Stark Industries-Osborn also opened up a weapon production model in the direction of biochemical transformation.
If he hadn't longed for the resources in the interstellar world, he would never have given up the biochemical experiment using mutants.
Now, he is even willing to be a "peace ambassador" himself, to win over the mutants and make friends, just wanting to win the other party to the other side.
It's just that Norman Osborn is overly aggressive, making things a little tricky.
"Look! Osborne is so attached to her, I'll wager he's after that young woman!"
"I heard that she is the daughter of the Parker couple."
"Having been widowed for so long, it's time for him to find a new partner... It's just that the Parker family is a little bit worse. I always think they won the lottery to have the money to send their children to study here."
"Now they get a chance to really raise their class!"
Parents discuss their favorite topics, and the characters in focus are always the best chat material.
Regardless of whether these things are true or false, as long as they can satisfy curiosity, they are worth exploring.
But falling into the ears of children, it becomes a shocking cruel truth.
This frightened the two children who sneaked over.
Peter was still a little dazed, Harry Osborn had already clenched his mouth, and his face was even more pale.
Those blue-green eyes, so different from his father's, came from his mother, blazing with the fury of betrayal.
The anger was directed not only at his father, but at his friends as well.
Harry said angrily: "You don't need to introduce. Your sister and I will know each other sooner or later. She may be my future stepmother."
Before being angered by this sarcasm, Peter read Harry's sadness, but he firmly remembered the first importance of protecting his sister.
"You're dreaming!" retorted Peter Parker, emphatically, "Your dad is dreaming too!"
All it took was a snort.
In order to protect Rhea, he had to violate the rules and tell Harry: "My sister is Rhea—she is Rhea Noren!"
Harry Osborn froze, then overwhelmed by a horrible feeling of double betrayal.That's not because of Peter's concealment, but because of the shattering of an iconic figure.
Children all over the world have seen Rhea Noren's movies and liked her, including Harry of course.
