Peter looked at Gwen curiously.

Gwen put down her chopsticks solemnly, her face very serious.

The four Peters couldn't help but become serious.

"puff!"

Gwen couldn't help laughing, and in the puzzled eyes of the four people, she said happily: "It's going to be a holiday soon, let's go to Kent Star!"

"Star Kent!"

Gwen: "Shh!"

The four people hurriedly covered their mouths, but their eyes were still beating with excitement.

Gwen was very satisfied with the expressions of the four of them, but after noticing that there were some red marks under Mary's hair that were covered by makeup but still vaguely visible, she was slightly startled and looked away as naturally as possible.

"Awesome! Star Kent!"

Harry cheered softly, already thinking about what he was going to bring.

"What's fun there?"

Luke asked expectantly.

Gwen thought for a moment and bit her finger gently: "I haven't been there for a long time, but I heard from my dad that the construction up there is very fast. I'm not sure, but there are many beautiful scenery."

"Bubble grassland, countercurrent waterfall, and suspended mountain..."

Gwen lit some places where she had played, and the eyes of the little guys were like light bulbs, getting brighter and brighter.

These places were designed by Mike and Jor-El after they took control of the planet. They are very interesting.

"Stop talking, I can't wait to see it!"

Harry was very excited.

"I would like to visit Kent City. I heard that Future Technology Company has moved to Kent Planet. Their technology is very powerful."

Peter thought and gently pushed up his glasses.

"Peter, you are such a nerd!" Harry put his arm around Peter's shoulders and said with a smile, "If a man is not romantic, he will not be able to chase girls."

"Yes, really?"

Peter's expression was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but look at Gwen quietly.

Gwen rolled her eyes and said disgustedly: "You guys have nothing to do with men. People like my brother and my father are men."

"..."

The three boys looked at Gwen speechlessly.

Can you please stop comparing us to your family?

"If Gwen wants to find a boyfriend according to his family's standards, I'm afraid he won't be able to fall in love in this life."

Harry muttered quietly.

"Harry!"

Gwen gritted her teeth and shouted.

This guy actually dared to curse her!

Mary Jane listened quietly to the words of the four people, her eyes darkened, and she pursed her lips.

"Well, I'm afraid I won't be able to go. My family and I are going to visit my relatives."

Mary Jane tried her best to smile, but her heart was full of bitterness, and she even felt that the wounds on her face were getting hot again.

"That's such a shame."

"No, it's such a good opportunity."

"Can't you come with us?"

Looking at the expressions of the three Harrys, Mary Jane's heart became increasingly bitter.

Of course she wanted to, but thinking about her mother lying on the bed and how her mother would have to face her domestically violent father alone after she left, Mary Jane still resisted the impulse and showed an apologetic smile to a few people.

Just when Harry and the others were about to speak, Gwen held Mary's hand and said to the three of them: "Men don't talk so much nonsense. Of course Mary has her own reasons for not going. You can go next time."

"Gwen..."

Mary Jane looked at Gwen excitedly.

Gwen gave Mary Jane a smile and said: "Eat quickly!"

A few minutes later, they finished their meal and walked towards the classroom. While Mary Jane was going to the bathroom, Gwen snapped her fingers at Peter and the other three. When the three of them looked at him curiously, Gwen ticked

He hooked his fingers.

The three people's eyes lit up and they put their heads together.

"What's wrong?"

"There's work to do."

A cold look flashed in Gwen's eyes.

"But I looked at our website and it seems like no one is asking for help."

Peter was a little confused.

Luke seemed to have thought of something and said in surprise: "Is it Mary?"

"right!"

Gwen looked at Luke with admiration and said to Peter and Harry: "You two are so slow."

"Well, what happened to Mary? Does anyone dare to bully Mary?"

Harry couldn't believe it.

In their school, whoever dares to bully any of them, Harry will let those people know what Harry Osborn is.

"Snapped!"

Gwen slapped Harry on the head mercilessly and said angrily: "You're so stupid! How can you be Osborn's heir like this?"

Harry: "..."

Well, he just didn't pay much attention to Mary.

"I guess it's Mary's father."

Gwen whispered with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Her father? Impossible, right?"

Luke frowned.

"There was a slap mark on her face. It was from an adult. If the person who slapped her had nothing to do with her, Mary would have told us."

"Besides, the situation at Mary's family has been bad."

Peter added.

"Then let's investigate secretly?"

"Well, don't tell Mary about this, it will make her very uncomfortable."

Gwen made a decision.

Since Mary Jane didn't tell them, she must have her own concerns. Maybe she didn't want her family's unhappiness to affect her friends, maybe she didn't want people to know about her family's situation...

But, even so, since their friends have discovered it, they can't pretend they didn't see anything.

Titan Team, covert operation!

The four of them exchanged glances, and when Mary Jane came back, the four of them pretended as if nothing had happened.

…

The winter sun shone on Mary Jane's body, bringing no warmth to her.

She looked at the sun that was about to set, looked at her home not far away, and hugged herself unconsciously.

The smile on her face has disappeared. The strong, sunny, and bold girl is like a kitten caught in the rain at this moment.

She took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to walk home.

Her home is located in Queens. It is a two-story building that looks a bit old.

She opened the door carefully and felt a little lucky when she didn't see the nightmare-like figure.

Putting down her schoolbag, she went to the bedroom upstairs.

"mom."

She opened the door, looked at the woman lying on the bed with scars all over her body, and called quietly, her eyes filled with distress.

"How was school today?"

Looking at Mary Jane's face, her eyes were full of guilt.

She is so useless that she didn't even protect her own daughter. On the contrary, this child was beaten again yesterday in order to protect her.

"I am fine!"

Mary Jane smiled in front of her mother and asked with concern: "How is your leg? Does it still hurt?"

Madeline hugged Mary Jane and whispered: "As long as Mary is here, it won't hurt."

Although she said this, when she thought of her husband, a strong look of fear flashed in her eyes.
