I'm Grant Ward

Chapter 42: Nighttime Revelations

Tony Stark and Pepper Potts arrived home after an exhausting event. Stark Tower, a modern and technologically advanced residence, was silent, except for the soft sound of instrumental music that echoed through the room. Tony placed his coat on a nearby hanger and, looking at Pepper, smiled.

"Well, that was a long night," Tony commented, heading to the couch.

Pepper followed Tony and settled down next to him.

"Yeah, it was. But it was good to have S.H.I.E.L.D. security to make sure everything went smoothly."

Tony nodded and picked up the remote, turning on the television. However, he seemed more interested in something on his tablet.

"Did you remember Grant mentioning the codename 'Ghost' when he introduced himself?" Pepper frowned.

"Yeah, I do. He seems to have an impressive track record, but I don't know much about his work." Tony began typing on the tablet, accessing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secure network and searching for information on Grant Ward. The information was limited due to the level of security, but Tony knew how to bypass protocols when necessary. Soon, he was able to access a detailed file on Ward and his background.

"Check this out," Tony said, handing the tablet to Pepper.

Pepper looked at the screen and saw a picture of Grant, next to detailed information about his career. The file began with a description of his training at DEVGRU, his remarkable performance in various operations, and finally the most notable mission of his career.

"That's impressive," Pepper commented as she read about Grant's intense training and experience at DEVGRU. "He really seems like one of the best."

Tony scrolled down to the section on notable operations. His gaze widened when he saw the name "Operation Rescue Captain Phillips."

"That's interesting. He was on the team that rescued Captain Phillips from Somalia." Pepper read the description of the operation and nodded.

"I remember hearing about it in the media. It was a critical rescue operation."

Tony continued to scroll down the screen, moving to a section detailing the mission in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

"Wait a minute," Tony said in surprise. "Here's the operation in Abbottabad."

Pepper stared at the screen, her eyes widening as she read. The mission description detailed the operation to capture and eliminate Osama Bin Laden, with an emphasis on the crucial role played by DEVGRU's Bravo Team, led by Grant Ward.

"Oh my God," Pepper muttered. "He was responsible for eliminating Bin Laden."

Tony looked equally impressed.

"That's huge. And I had no idea he had such an impressive career. It seems like he really is a legend in the field of security and special operations."

Pepper and Tony continued to review the information, discussing the impact of Grant's work on global security and his importance in the world of special operations.

"So, what do you think of this?" — Pepper asked, looking at Tony.

Tony pondered for a moment, his gaze fixed on the tablet.

"Well, I have to say I'm impressed. Grant Ward isn't just a security officer, he's one of the best. And now that I know more about him, I feel like we were lucky to have him with us during the event."

Pepper nodded.

"Yes, he was extremely professional and attentive. Plus, he seemed to have a deep understanding of our industry and the technology involved."

Tony raised an eyebrow.

"Do you think we should do more about it? He's clearly someone who can contribute significantly, not only to our security, but also to future collaborations."

Pepper smiled, acknowledging Tony's enthusiasm.

"Perhaps we should consider ways to integrate Grant's work more into our future projects. Having someone with his experience and skills could be extremely valuable."

Tony nodded, his mind already beginning to formulate plans to explore further collaboration with S.H.I.E.L.D.

"I agree." I'll look into some opportunities for us to partner more strategically. Who knows, maybe we can find ways to leverage Grant's expertise on our upcoming projects.

With the tablet now closed, Tony and Pepper settled back on the couch, still pondering the information they had uncovered.

"Do you think Grant was aware of how important he is to us?" Pepper asked, looking at Tony.

Tony smiled.

"I'm not sure, but I hope he does. He's an exceptional professional, and now that we know more about his background, I'm more convinced of how much he can contribute to our security and future innovations."

Pepper looked at Tony with a knowing smile.

"Well, let's hope he continues to excel and that we can seize the opportunity to work more closely with him."

— "Exactly. And who knows, maybe we can find ways to strengthen this collaboration even further."Tony said.

The two got up and headed upstairs, eager to explore the new possibilities that would arise from their continued collaboration with Grant. The evening was just beginning for the couple, but the thought of future collaborations and innovations filled the room with excitement and anticipation.
