Blue Duck Tavern!

The decoration is clean and simple, without exaggerated decoration. The wooden tables and chairs and mahogany columns make the restaurant look warm and stylish. It once became a check-in restaurant for celebrities from all over the country...

The most famous dish is duck. It uses Monlude duck breast. It must be specially processed for two weeks and the dishes can be roasted in the stove. The skin is crispy and has a strong honey flavor; the duck meat is chewy and chewy...

At 11:30 in the morning.

Mark, Tony and Pepper were sitting at a dining table near the window chatting while waiting for the head of a public welfare organization.

Claire Underwood!

Democratic Representative of South Carolina, House Majority Whip Frank Underwood’s Wife…

Her husband is very politically ambition and is ambitious in secretly coveting the chair inside the white building...

Wife Claire?

Not long!

The restaurant door was pushed open, carrying a meniscus bag, and Claire, tall, with a slender blonde hair, came down to Mark's table under the guidance of the restaurant waiter.

"Claire!"

"Peper!"

After becoming Tony Stark's personal secretary, under Tony's indescribable delegation, Pepper almost mastered Tony's 360-year-old life.

From helping Tony order takeout to send Tony's temporary girlfriend away in the morning.

From helping Tony handle document meetings to representing Tony in dealing with various politicians...

The universal private secretary is talking about Pepper!

After the two girls greeted each other for a while, their spouse pulled Carlisle to sit beside her.

"Carlisle, I'll introduce you. This person is..." Pepper pointed at Mark with a smile as he was preparing to introduce him.

Claire smiled, stretched out his right hand directly to Mark and said, "Mark Louis, FBI legendary Agent!"

Mark shrugged.

no way!

As Mark said, a person as good as him is like an owl in the sun everywhere.

Even if you stand there and do nothing, it will shine like a big diamond.

Nothing else to say.

At least in politics, anyone who has a ties with law enforcement agencies has almost heard of Mark Louis' reputation or before.

In seven years, the case resolution rate was 100%.

When the Internet was not very popular in 1997, Mark Louis was a man who was once named the nemesis of crime by the Washington Daily.

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

After three rounds of drinking, Claire then looked at Pepper beside him with a smile and said, "Why did you suddenly come to DC today?"

Pepper smiled and looked directly at Mark.

Her mission is completed.

As Tony's personal secretary, he represents Stark's successor Tony Stark in all aspects.

There are some words that Pepper is not suitable for saying.

The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.

Mark put down the wine glass in his hand, and looked at Claire with a gentleman smile and said, "Mrs. Underwood..."

"Just call me Claire!"

Mark nodded remarkably and said, "Claire, I plan to donate 90 million US dollars to your public welfare organization anonymously!"

When he spoke, Tony, who had not spoken beside him, couldn't help but look at Mark.

Just now!

The amount of donations from Mark was only 80 million, so why did it suddenly increase by 10 million...

Even Pepper looked at Mark with some confusion...

but!

Mark was in no mood to pay attention to the two of them at this moment.

For him.

Eighty million is also a donation, and ninety million is also a donation.

Rather than doing this, Mark would rather raise the amount directly above the maximum amount allowed by anonymity.

The same sentence!

Only with hard work can you get rewards...

really!

But after Claire heard the donation amount, the dressed beauty couldn't help but jump up gently.

Although his face remained calm, his subtle expression betrayed Claire's true mood at the moment.

It's been a long time!

Then Claire looked at Mark and asked curiously: "Director Louis, I don't quite understand that my water purification is a non-profit charity organization."

Mark nodded and said, "I know, I also want to make some of my own contributions to charity..."

Claire was obviously a little surprised.

Mark then turned around with a joke: "Of course, I also hope Claire, you can do me a favor."

Claire was stunned, then his face changed: "I'm afraid you will disappoint. Director Louis, I never interfere with Frank's work."

Mark laughed!

But he shook his head and said, "Claire, I think you misunderstood. If I have something to look for Frank, believe me, I'm already in his office now."

Claire was stunned again: "...what is that?"

Mark smiled and said, "Worthington Pharmaceuticals!"

"What's wrong with them?"

Mark took out the long-prepared Stark Commercial Bank check from his arms and put it on the table and pushed it in front of Claire.

after……

Ignoring Tony, who rolled his eyes next to me, and Pepper, who was smiling, said to Claire: "I hope Claire, you can reject the limited 50 million donations sponsored by Worthington Pharmaceuticals..."

Claire looked at the check that was pushed in front of him and glanced at Mark with a gentleman smile.

After a while of silence.

Claire looked up and said, "...If I refuse, will you go to Frank?"

Mark shook his head with a serious expression, and looked at Claire who was still beautiful with determination and said, "I respect every woman. If Claire refuses me, I will not go to Frank. You are you, Frank is Frank!"

These words made Tony, who had just taken a sip of champagne, turn red...

Even Pepper, who was sitting next to Claire, couldn't bear to look at Mark's serious and handsome face at this moment...

I believe you...

The two people who knew Mark's private life in the past were complaining fiercely in their hearts...

No matter how much you complain.

But the two of them did not intervene!

Mark, who once studied as a psychotherapist, understood one thing very early.

That's:

No woman wants to become a vassal of a man after marriage.

Especially some independent and autonomous women!

What's more, Claire in front of you!

really!

After hearing Mark's words of praise but compared to praise, Claire took the check on the table with his right hand.

Ten seconds later!

Claire put the check into the bag he brought, then looked at Mark and said, "I finally know why Frank once said that you are the same type of person as him?"

Instead of answering this question, Mark raised the champagne in his hand, raised his glass with a gentleman smile and said, "Cheers?"
