Chapter 152 Gwen Wants to Elop

"Gegwen, why is it you?!"

George Stacy looked at Gwen in shock.

He was unwilling to believe that the wanted criminal he had been pursuing was his own daughter!

Spider-Woman and Gwen
He never linked these two unrelated words together.

"Why? Gwen."

George lowered his arms and slowly put down the gun in his hand.

"I'm sorry, Dad, I don't have a choice."

Gwen looked at her father with sad eyes, "When I put on the mask, it means I have to hide my other life."

"This is not your life. Your life is to go to school and choose a career you love, and live your life in peace, not to put on a mask and live in danger every day like this."

No matter what, George Stacy couldn't accept his daughter becoming Spider-Woman.

"Your life right now is ten times more dangerous for one second than your life without a mask!"

He gasped and said to Gwen: "Listen, Gwen, you are a smart girl, maybe too smart, you have to understand that you don't have to shoulder anything, you have no responsibility to anyone!"

“You don’t have to be everyone’s hero all the time.”

Gwen calmed herself down and explained to her father, "That's not the case, Dad."

"why?!"

Taking a deep breath, Gwen said to his father, "You're a good sheriff, Dad. You've kept your badge and your gun with you all your life because you knew if you didn't carry them, they would fall into the hands of someone who doesn't deserve them."

Gwen said as she looked at the spider mask in her hand.

"And this mask is my badge. If I'm not sure of its meaning, the bad guys will give it a different meaning. This is where the world needs me."

She followed in Peter's footsteps and became Spider-Woman.

She has too many things to protect, which is why she can't take off the mask.

"The sad thing is, you're willing to be everyone's hero, Gwen, but you're not willing to be mine."

George Stacy put down his gun and said to Gwen with a gloomy expression: "You are destined to have a difficult time on this road. You will get hurt and face the threat of death at all times."

"But that's the path I chose, Dad, and I'm not alone."

"I'll stop you, Gwen."

George Stacy's eyes suddenly became firm, and he raised his gun and pointed it at Gwen again.

"How do I stop it? Dad, are you going to arrest me?"

Gwen doesn't understand why her father is so obsessed with stopping her from becoming Spider-Woman.

He even wanted to send his own daughter to prison.

"I'm still a police officer, even though you're my daughter."

For both public and private reasons, he would not bear to see Gwen continue down this path.

"No, you won't do that, Dad."

"There is no middle ground between good and evil, you said, Gwen."

George pointed a gun at Gwen. The sound of police cars was getting closer and a helicopter was flying towards them.

"I took an oath once, and I taught you the rules! Gwen."

The anger that Gwen had been holding back finally erupted, and she raised her voice, "Very well, let's see what your rules have taught me."

She looked at her father angrily, "I followed the rules you taught me, but you destroyed my beliefs instead, so that now I don't even know what is right and what is wrong!"

"I don't know what to do to satisfy you, but I stick to my choice!"

Gwen ruffled her messy blond hair, raised her hands and put them together, extending them to George Stacy.

"If you insist I'm wrong, then arrest me!"

George held the gun high and looked at Gwen, who stretched out her hand and waited for him to cuff her.

There was a painful expression on his face.

He could choose to torture Gwen now, but if he did that, he would probably lose his daughter forever.

Looking at the police getting closer and closer, George finally did not take out the handcuffs.

He turned away, trying not to meet Gwen's eyes.

"leave here!"

Gwen looked at her father's back and said nothing.

She put the spider mask back on, then turned and left without looking back.

Black Cat witnessed the quarrel and confrontation between Gwen and George Stacy.

She originally wanted to show up to comfort Gwen, but she felt that her presence was a bit unnecessary.

Maybe it would be good to let the other person calm down alone.

Just as I was thinking about something, my cell phone suddenly vibrated.

She took out her cell phone and found that it was Peter calling her.

"It seems you missed more than one show." Black Cat whispered and answered the phone.

"Whoosh!"

Shooting out spider silk, Gwen's figure swept across the tall buildings in the city.

She didn't know where she wanted to go.

But the only thought in my mind was to leave here.

Escape or flee from this place that makes her suffer.

George Stacy's final look hurt her deeply.

Perhaps the best outcome would be for me to disappear.

Swinging through the city at the fastest speed, Gwen quickly left the city and entered the suburbs.

At this time, the gloomy sky began to rain.

When Gwen stopped, she found herself at the seashore.

Before her stood a tall tower.

The path leading to the tower is winding, with a row of sparse and crooked fences on both sides, and bushes with yellow flowers growing behind the fences.

Seagulls were chattering overhead, and the continuous dark clouds looked like a flock of black birds flying from a distance.

The tides rise and fall, the waves push and surge, and the sea whispers in the distance.

Gwen took off her mask and let out a dejected breath.

After staying there for a few minutes, she stepped forward.

Cross the yellow warning strip and pass a sign that says "Under Construction". Next to the sign is a board that explains that the lighthouse will be equipped with a new signal light and replaced with high-quality resin glass windows.

Walking the path to the lighthouse feels like riding a roller coaster - even though there are no hills.

Countless chaotic thoughts surged in Gwen's mind, as if countless eels were wriggling constantly.

The sand under my feet is soft.

She took a deep breath, kicked off her shoes, and suddenly she felt a sense of heroism in her heart, as if she was heading for the place where there was a tiger.

But in reality, she felt like a trembling little girl, reluctantly walking towards her mother who was waiting for her in front with a belt.

Yes, I am a fragile girl, and perhaps I have never been suitable to be a so-called hero.

Gwen was walking barefoot on the beach in the drizzling rainy night.

She walked carefully, step by step.

It was as if she was not walking towards the lighthouse, but the lighthouse was walking towards her.

You can't change anything, you are destined to be abandoned by everyone. There is a voice echoing in your mind, not someone else's, but her own.

Remember, you became Spider-Woman not to change anything, but to witness something. This is your mission, your nature, and it is inevitable.

The voice kept echoing in her mind.

At the end of the fence, the sandy path continues forward.

Gwen stopped and looked in astonishment at Peter who suddenly appeared in front of her.

Peter's figure stands out between the sky and the beach.

"Peter.!"

Gwen hadn't expected to see Peter here.

Then she felt a sense of grievance, and ran towards Peter quickly with her bare feet on the sand.

With a "bang", she threw herself into Peter's arms.

Peter looked at Gwen who threw herself into her arms and was slightly surprised at first.

Feeling Gwen's body trembling slightly, he hugged Gwen's shoulders.

At the entrance of the state mine tunnel, he used the Gem Wasp to spot a somewhat familiar figure, so he rushed to investigate.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the Metropolitan Opera House, I learned that Black Cat’s concert had been attacked.

Through the black cat, he knew everything that happened between Gwen and his father.

"I screwed up, Peter."

Amid the sound of the sea, Gwen said to Peter, "Maybe my father and I will never be able to go back to the way we were before."

"The only thing I have left is you."

Gwen left Peter's arms and said uncomfortably, "You'll take me in, right?"

Peter was stunned when he heard Gwen use the word "take in".

"of course."

Peter fixed Gwen's messy hair, "If you want."

The sound of waves crashing could be heard in the distance, and Gwen whispered, "If possible, would you be willing to wander with me? I mean, let's elope."
