Maybe Adrian isn't as ungrateful as he thought. Lex nods at the acknowledgement, more than satisfied. "You're welcome."

"It's a shame you couldn't come and see LuthorCorp." Lex is sincere in this also. Though Lex didn't get a proper tour of Veidt Enterprises, he as least saw enough for a lasting impression. He not only wanted to share where he'd come from, but what he can do and what resources he has to make that happen. "I think you would like Metropolis." He smiles. "We're lacking a bit on year round snow, but I make sure that we more than make up for it in industry."
