"So the Taft Family also has connections with General Pan Xing?"
Donnie asked with so curiosity. Although he knew a bit about these Arican families, in his previous life he was based in his holand, and in this life, he was just a veteran at the start. As for such high-level affairs, he really didn't understand them well!
"The Taft Family is an important ally of General Pan Xing!"
Marshall said calmly.
Donnie nodded. Since Marshall had no intention of delving deeper into this topic, Donnie naturally wouldn't keep asking.
"Perhaps today isn't a good ti to talk business with Miller!"
Marshall had been paying attention to Graik Miller's situation. At this mont, Helen Taft seed displeased with sothing Graik Miller might have said wrong, but she still politely bid farewell.
After Helen Taft left, Graik Miller also showed a regretful expression.
Donnie shook his head: "Now really isn't a good ti!"
Marshall said to Donnie, "I still need to help General Pan Xing handle so other matters. Can you manage on your own here?"
"Of course!" Donnie lifted his glass.
After Marshall left, Donnie wandered aimlessly about. In this circle, Donnie was a newcor and no one knew him. Naturally, no one would initiate a conversation with Donnie. At most, they would politely nod at each other upon making unintentional eye contact.
Just when Donnie thought his evening would pass by like this, he heard a girl's voice behind him.
"Are you Donnie Block from Atlantic City?"
Donnie turned around and saw an excited Helen Taft!
"Miss Helen!"
"You know ?" Helen Taft looked at Donnie with so surprise.
"I was just about to discuss so matters with Colonel Miller and saw Miss Helen there; my friend told !"
Donnie began with an explanation and then asked with so curiosity, "But I don't recall having t Miss Helen before?"
Helen Taft laughed: "I've read about you in the Atlantic City Post!"
Donnie realized, "I didn't expect Miss Helen to notice the Atlantic City Post!"
Helen Taft said earnestly, "Of course, I really like the content of the Atlantic City Post, especially the discussions about the concept of won's rights!"
Donnie suddenly understood—it was because of this issue!
Clearly, Helen Taft was not lying, but standing there, speaking to Donnie seriously.
"I've heard that Mr. Block, you've sponsored WCTU in Atlantic City, and also sponsored Miss South Brenton's WRPA?"
"That's right. God created both n and won at the sa ti. I believe God must have wanted won to have the sa status as n!"
Donnie was already very accustod to such lines for deceiving won!
"Mr. Block, you are the most gentlemanly man I've ever t!" Helen Taft said excitedly.
Just as Donnie was about to be modest, Graik Miller, who had been paying attention to Helen Taft's situation, ca over.
"Helen, is this your friend?"
"Graik, let introduce you. This is Mr. Donnie Block from Atlantic City, a true gentleman!" Helen Taft said happily.
Upon hearing Donnie's na, Graik Miller looked puzzled at first, then realized, and then smiled as he shook hands with Donnie.
"Hello, Graik Miller!"
Donnie also extended his hand: "Donnie Block!"
Their hands clasped together, and Helen Taft, who was next to them, seed not to think much of it, still excitedly asking Donnie about the matters related to WCTU and WRPA in Atlantic City.
Donnie also introduced the two organizations' activities in Atlantic City seriously to Helen Taft.
In fact, Donnie was constantly observing Graik Miller's deanor. He had already learned from Marshall that Miller was pursuing Helen Taft. Now, Helen Taft was enthusiastically conversing with him, and Donnie was keen to see how Graik Miller would react. Read new adventures at empire
Soon, Donnie confird sothing.
No matter the era or the country, there never seems to be a shortage of sycophants!
This Graik Miller showed no emotional reaction towards Donnie at all... or rather, he had just shaken hands with Donnie, but from the beginning to end, his attention was on Helen Taft.
As for the conversation between Helen Taft and Donnie, he didn't care at all.
"Donnie, how long will you be staying in San Francisco? Can we continue our conversation tomorrow? There are many things I really want to ask you!"
As the evening banquet was about to conclude, Helen Taft looked at Donnie with so anticipation.
"Of course, I'll be in San Francisco for two more days. This is the hotel I'm staying at, Helen. You can co to find anyti!"
Donnie handed a note with the na of his hotel to Helen Taft.
After taking the note, Helen Taft said with a smile, "I'll co to see you tomorrow!"
Donnie said, "I'll be waiting for you at the hotel!"
Helen Taft waved goodbye to Donnie, and Graik Miller imdiately nodded at Donnie and followed her.
"It seems you've already made contact!"
Marshall ca over at this point and made a comnt as he watched Graik Miller and Helen Taft depart.
Donnie smiled: "You didn't tell what kind of person Graik Miller was just now!"
Marshall laughed and said, "I believe you would be able to discern that for yourself, Donnie."
