Ellie couldn't help but feel delighted when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she was stunned by the second half. However, she quickly agreed to the condition.
"Okay, then I'll answer your first question - I'm not Tony's bodyguard, I'm his creditor." Kyle shrugged. It's just selling out Tony. This intelligence deal is worth it.
"Creditor?" Ellie was really shocked by this identity. The creditor of a billionaire, this was a blatant headline!
Naive Ellie doesn't know yet that tonight's news headlines are really outrageous.
"Now, let me ask." Kyle took a deep breath and asked, "What is your relationship with Peggy Carter?"
When Ellie heard the question, she looked at him strangely and replied, "Grandma Peggy, she's my grandfather's sister."
"How is she now?" Kyle asked immediately.
"Hey, it's my turn now..."
Before Ellie could finish her words, she was interrupted by Kyle. He straightened his back and stared at her like a bloodthirsty beast, his tone cold and powerful, "Tell me now!"
Several gentlemen and beautiful women who were dancing nearby heard the sudden noise and looked at the two of them with slight surprise.
"Okay, okay, I'm telling you, keep your voice down."
Ellie waved her hands in panic and said with a sigh, "Grandma Peggy, she died a long time ago, at the end of 1945, not long after the end of World War II."
The answer was very small, but it was like a thunderclap, which stunned Kyle.
Peggy Carter died? And in the same year he left this Earth?!
This, how is this possible!
Before Kyle left, he personally gave Peggy a life card that extended her natural lifespan by 30 years, hoping that they would meet again one day.
"How did she die? Who killed her?" Kyle asked calmly, his tone indifferent. The wine glass he put down was cracked by the overflowing force. He was like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
"Grandma Peggy died of an illness. I don't know what the illness was, and the elders never mentioned it. But when Grandma Peggy passed away, I heard she was very peaceful, without any pain, and with a smile on her face. Her hands..."
Ellie hesitated, but still said slowly: "There is a photo frame in her hand. It is a photo of the three of us taken together at the World War II base with the Symbol of Peace and Captain America."
Kyle fell silent, raised his glass and drank the wine. When he put it down, the glass had completely shattered into a pile of glass fragments.
Are you sad
No, after going through the baptism of the brutal Second World War and becoming a god with genes that transcended humans, he had an extremely strong mental and physical constitution and could no longer experience what sadness was like.
Kyle was just absent-minded for a moment, and sat there quietly with his lips pursed, his handsome profile hidden in the shadow of the light.
Ellie looked at the silver-haired young man opposite her, and suddenly, for some reason, she felt an unspeakable sadness from him, which moved her to the point of tears, which kept sliding down her face like pearls.
She didn't understand why, but she had an urge to reach out and hug the other person.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a lot of exclamations were heard in the party ballroom.
At the door of the ballroom, an extremely beautiful oriental beauty appeared, with a noble and cold temperament, like a black rose blooming in the night.
She has long black hair that reaches her waist, a pair of beautiful eyes as clear and bright as gems, an Asian-type face that is exquisite and impeccable, and a luxurious black dress that wraps around her curvy figure, outlining her graceful and perfect curves.
The oriental beauty walked gracefully and elegantly, and the moment she entered the hall, she undoubtedly became the heroine of the party.
All the upper-class women who had taken great pains to dress up and were goddesses outside were dwarfed by her. And the gentlemen who had seen and slept with countless women were stunned and swallowed saliva.
The oriental beauty glanced around coldly, ignoring everyone else, her eyes quickly fell on the corner where Kyle was, and she smiled stunningly and charmingly.
"So you are here."

"Beauty, a top-notch beauty!"
"She's my dance partner, no one can snatch her from me!"
"Get lost, she's mine! One hundred thousand dollars per person, give me a chance."
"I'll let you xx..."
In an instant, the entire party hall was filled with young men who were extremely gentlemanly one moment, beginning to ignore their dance partners the next moment, and almost coming to blows over the appearance of an oriental beauty.
To use an Eastern idiom, "Beauty is a disaster", which is probably true!
"Oh my God, why is that person here today?!" Ellie wiped away her tears. When she saw the woman who was the focus of everyone's attention at the entrance of the hall, her mouth opened wide and her slightly red eyes showed surprise. "Headline! Another headline news!"
"Huh?" Kyle recovered from his brief loss of consciousness. He was now undoubtedly a strong man, or in other words, a higher creature that was a hundred times more powerful than humans. He was infinitely weakened in some emotions and tended to be indifferent.
Hearing Ellie's exclamation, Kyle raised his eyes, and his gaze happened to meet the oriental beauty's.
"Yutong?" He whispered to himself, with a hint of surprise in his words.
Even though the other party has grown up and matured a lot, and no longer has the childish and cute appearance of the past, his aura and the ability cards he once bestowed remain unchanged.
"What are you talking about? She's the Black Queen of Queens." Ellie's face flushed. As a woman, she was attracted by her charm and said excitedly, "She's the big sister of the mysterious underground organization in Queens. She is beautiful, powerful and wealthy. She is known as the perfect woman. I heard that celebrities in New York and even the president wanted to invite her to dinner, but she refused to give face to anyone. She hasn't attended any banquets or parties in the past few years. I didn't expect that she would appear here tonight..."
"Big sister, perfect woman?" Kyle's mouth twitched slightly, and his previous distraction and recollection were swept away in an instant.
Is this description of the fair and tender loli who followed him all day and loved to snuggle in his arms
"Yeah, so many years have passed, it's time for you to grow up." Kyle shook his head slightly, stood up from his seat, and took a step forward under Ellie's surprised gaze.
From the moment she appeared, the Black Queen looked straight at Kyle, her gaze never shifting in the slightest, and she walked towards him.
"Me first! I'll go first to invite them!"
"Don't push!"
At the party venue, a group of young gentlemen were excitedly scrambling to move forward, but before they came within five meters of the Black Queen, they suddenly bumped into an invisible wall of air and fell backwards to the ground.
It was as if there was a mysterious force pushing them all away.
"Strange, why can't I get through?"
The gentlemen showed expressions of horror and were forced to step back to make enough space for her. They couldn't even get close to the Black Queen, let alone invite her.
The Black Queen walked slowly through the center of the party hall, and the gentlemen and ladies around her stepped back until she walked gracefully in front of Kyle and stopped.
At this moment, Ellie looked at the person in front of her and felt even more amazed and surprised. Even her pretty face turned red with excitement, and she stammered and was completely speechless.
Kyle was very natural, he calmly extended his hand and said directly to the Black Queen: "I'm not in a good mood, dance with me."
Seeing this, Ellie was shocked. What kind of invitation to dance was this? Not to mention the cold tone, the one being invited was the Black Queen!
But what happened next made Ellie completely stunned and question her life.
