Chapter 493
The woman was very pitiful as she watched her father died after getting pushed around by Hank Pym on their quantum field project. In their desperation, they rushed the project. As a result, the entire lab blew up, including the woman’s parents, while their daughter survived as a ghost, a person that was trapped between worlds!
She became an agent of SHIELD, killing people and spying on the enemy because SHIELD has promised to cure her, but she didn’t know that the SHIELD’s director at the time was HYDRA’s leader, Alexander Pierce. But it was unknown what she did to escape the HYDRA clutch and escape on her own.
It was because of this tragic background that Dio chose to let her go. But he also knew that the woman wasn’t in her right mind right now for him asking her to sit down and have a talk.
Instead of following her, which was impossible to do right now, Dio immediately called T’challa. “Help me find Dr. Hank Pym’s old research team! I believe several of them became a lectured on certain campuses.” Dio said casually.
After hanging up the phone, Dio waited leisurely as he didn’t have anything else to do. But it seemed T’challa’s network was really fast as it hasn’t even been a half hour yet, and he already called Dio back. After receiving the information about Hank Pym’s old teammate and took his time to check each name, Dio finally stopped at the name Bill Foster.
Looking at Bill Foster’s photo, Dio immediately remembered that he was the man who saved the Ghost! As T’challa’s information actually gave the home address of the each personnel, Dio wanted to take things slow as he always had the time to go there later.

In a dilapidated villa outside New York’s suburbs, Eva Starr, in her white uniform, walked in with her arms folded.
“What happened, Eva?”
Fortunately, Professor Bill Foster didn’t have class the entire day and chose to stay at home. He immediately brought Eva into Molecular Repair Room to make her better. Because Eva was trapped between worlds, her molecule was unstable, and thus she was under constant danger of disintegrating.
Bill Foster then built a room to prevent the disintegration, which was this Molecular Repair Room!
“I want to find Scott Lang today, but I only found his companion. I tried to attack him from his blind spot in order to force him to spill out where Scott is, but I couldn’t even hurt him!” Eva said frustratedly.
“So basically, you attacked him, but nothing happened, and then he attacked you, and you took damage?” Bill said in a matter of fact.
“Yes, my power didn’t even work. But after I escaped his grasp, I can use my power again.” Eva said, still frustrated by what happened.
Bill Foster immediately racked his brain regarding what happened to Eva as he knew that her condition was gradually taking the worse direction. Eva really needed Hank Pym’s help right now, but Bill thought Hank wouldn’t even consider helping her right now!
But as he was deep in his own thought, his doorbell rang. He immediately checked who was on his door and immediately noticed Hank Pym was standing there. He was surprised as he never expected Hank Pym would talk to him, let alone come to his house.
But, how would Hank even know where he lived? But it was too confusing for him right now, and thus he asked Eva to hide before he opened the door for Hank.
“Hank? How are you?” Bill said as he was pretending to be surprised.
“Cut the talk for later, Bill. Let me in first!” Hank said annoyedly.
Bill Foster surely understood Hank’s current predicament, so he looked around and let Hank in immediately.
“Well, well. What do we have here? Hank Pym himself, who arrogantly chased away his own team, is now coming to his former colleague’s house after 30 long years!” Bill said sarcastically.
“It’s all because you tried to flirt with my woman!”
“That logic is not gonna fly now! You think you deserve Janet? You are the worst partner that she could ever have! You are moody, jealous, and impatient! You basically drive everyone around you away! Now, what did she got? She paid a terrible price because of your arrogance!” Bill said coldly.
But Hank just stood there, taking all Bill’s word without a hint of fury.
“Well, I am not here to talk about the old days. Let us talk business.”
“Who are you?” Bill said confusedly.
“What do you mean?” Hank said with the same confused look.
“The Hank I know would surely be furious after hearing all that! But you are too calm. There is no way you are the real Hank!”
