"Huh? Peter is absent? That's strange."
Gwen looked around in the bus, yet couldn't find the guy who always likes to be alone, doesn't like to interact with people, yet still is a science genius.
Gwen is really competitive, but Peter doesn't take her seriously at all. Even when she scores more than him, he doesn't get the least bit bothered, unlike she was when he scored more than her.
In fact, she has caught him tie up the bully Flash and threaten to break his legs with a baseball bat after he bullied him once.
That guy is a little scary. His reaction was completely justifiable, since Flash had hit him in the face, but a little too much.
Well...Flash did stop bullying from them on.
Guess it's effective?
Anyway, wasn't he really excited yesterday about the school trip to Oscorp?
MJ sighed at Gwen looking around.
"Searching for that nerd?"
"Yeah."
"I suggest that you stop trying to go after him. He is hella rude! He is my neighbour, yet he never ever talks to me!
When we were in primary school and I asked to sit beside him, since he was the only one in class who I knew, he put his bag on the clearly empty seat!"
Harry came over to defend Peter.
"Hey, he was reserving that seat for me."
"He didn't even know you."
"Umm..."
Harry didn't have any comeback for this.
MJ smiled and linked her hand with his.
"Come on, let's not think about him. Won't you show me around?"
"Haha... Well, let's go!"
So, Harry and MJ left Gwen and went ahead.
Gwen sighed and shook her head. These guys only focus on romance and totally ignore studying.
She can understand Harry, since he will inherit a multibillion corporation, but MJ should really start focusing on her future.
It's not like she will be able to marry Harry. Yes, he is quite an ordinary guy by personality for a billionaire's son, but who knows what he does outside of school?
Norman Osborn, who saw his son treating the study tour like a date with an even more idiot girl than him also sighed in disappointment.
He could already see what the future will be when he is gone.
Divorce.
And she will take 50% of his everything.
And by everything, he meant what will be left of Oscorp.
The corporation he has built by himself, with his blood and sweat is going to be turned to dust after he is gone.
He sighed again and left to see the office of this building. Everything in this lab turned out to be useless and a waste of money.
No matter how much of a disappointment Harry is, he is still his son. He has already wasted billions in trying to find a cure of the disease that killed his wife.
Peter Parker's parents were responsible for this lab and researching about spiders.
But ever since they died in an accident, the research has not progressed even one bit.
So it is just wasting money. So the lab is getting shut down.
And will be a front of the secret research of G-serum.
But to make it look unsuspicious from SHIElD, he has ordered even CCTV cameras and the things worth anything to be taken away, and after Harry's school's trip, the useless radioactive Spiders, Chameleons, Mouses and what-not will be disposed off.
--------------------------
Harry had noticed his dad's car coming, but he pretended like he didn't.
Afterall, his dad scolded him a lot yesterday when he found out that he got a girlfriend.
And after using his power to get her results from the school, he scolded him even more.
Said that she is a gold digger and will ruin Oscorp.
He didn't say that she will ruin him.
But Oscorp.
So he is really angry—
"Harry, you seem out of it."
MJ asked with concern.
"Ah. Nothing. Just got in a fight with Dad yesterday."
"You got terrible father too huh?"
"He isn't terrible."
Harry still defended his Dad. He doesn't like anyone else badmouthing him.
'Ack!'
Something bit him.
On his hand, a spider which has escaped from its container has bit him!
He hastily slapped away the spider, and it landed on the back of the neck of Cindy Moon, who was watching Pokemon on her phone, not really interested in this boring study tour.
It bit her, and she slapped it thinking it was some mosquito, killing the spider and it falling on the ground.
The spider has bitten two people.
Harry Osborn and Cindy Moon.
