America 1919-Chapter 885 - 302, Heir_3

Robert has already left Atlantic City to report to Harvard.

Old Carl, who came to Atlantic City, was short one lackey, but soon, he found two others, Tyrone Capello and Joachim Lang, a pair of henchmen, one fat and one thin.

With their company, as well as Old Carl’s robust health as the foundation, he once again became the king of the red-light district in Atlantic City!

Indeed, many were the times Donnie couldn’t help but marvel at Old Carl’s physical strength after hearing about these events!

Olden Van did not know any of this and said with a laugh: "Then fine, I’ll go find old father Carl right now!"

Late at night, a little past one o’clock nearing two.

Once again, someone arrived at Donnie’s office, Rhode Granger.

Originally, Deputy Director Wendell of the Bureau of Investigation wanted to investigate the Teapot Dome scandal and dispatched Rhode Granger and others to look into the matter, which meant that at that time Rhode Granger was not one of Hoover’s confidants.

But with Wendell’s downfall, instead of being blamed by Hoover, Rhode Granger was actually kept on by Hoover because of his capability in investigating the matter and became one of the very few people Hoover truly trusted within the Bureau of Investigation!

What Hoover did not know, however, was that Rhode Granger was actually Donnie’s man.

And now, Rhode Granger was also the one among those that Donnie had planted in the Bureau of Investigation who was doing the best!

"Boss!"

After seeing Donnie, Rhode Granger greeted him respectfully.

Donnie pointed to the sofa in front of him, smiling and said: "Have a seat if you’ve got something to say!"

Rhode Granger obediently took a seat. Donnie then pulled out the documents Olden Van had given him earlier that day from his drawer and handed them to Rhode Granger, asking, "Take a look at the contents and see if there are any discrepancies with the materials Hoover is planning to seal?"

Rhode Granger took them, looked carefully, and then said, "At least in the materials I’ve seen, there are no discrepancies."

Donnie nodded and asked, "How’s Hoover’s personal situation?"

Rhode Granger knew what Donnie was asking and replied, "At this stage, Hoover still very much needs your support, Boss, so I can sense that although Hoover definitely has his own ideas, at least for the next few years, he won’t do anything that’s detrimental to you, Boss.

Additionally, I’ve also noticed that Hoover has been frequently in touch with various political and business families lately. Although he has not explained the specific reasons for doing so, it’s clear that he certainly does not want to rely on just you alone, Boss."

Donnie understood that if he were in Hoover’s shoes, he would make the same choice, but that did not mean Donnie wanted to see Hoover do this.

However, as it stands, Donnie needs to focus more on the Kuhn, Loeb & Co. consortium and let this matter take precedence over all others.

Moreover, once Donnie, along with Morgan, Rockefeller, and Mellon, have finished divvying up Kuhn, Loeb & Co. consortium, the influence of the New Jersey Consortium and the Tarot Society would increase.

Then it would be a natural course of action to resolve Hoover’s desire to have his feet in multiple boats!

"Very well, this information is very useful to us. Just stay comfortably at Hoover’s side, and as long as he doesn’t take any direct action against us, you can handle other matters on your own. I’ve already had Robert increase your clearance, and from now on, your monthly operational funds will increase by 20,000 US dollars!"

Rhode Granger expressed his gratitude: "I understand, thank you, Boss!"

After Rhode Granger left, Donnie finally stretched, his business for the day having finally come to an end. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

After some thought, Donnie had Steve Cotting prepare a car, and he went to Janine Woburg’s apartment.

The next day, Hoover left with Albert Furr back to Washington.

For the time being, there weren’t any particularly important matters remaining for Donnie to handle. Three weeks later, one evening, Helen suddenly felt unwell. After being examined by the doctor residing at the beach estate, an immediate conclusion was drawn that Helen was about to give birth!

This made the entire beach estate instantly busy, but fortunately, Donnie had already prepared all the necessary equipment beforehand, so there was no need for a hospital trip.

However, that’s all Donnie could do; the rest was up to the doctor and Helen.

Hearing Helen’s screams inside, Alice also showed a look of concern.

Donnie could only soothe Alice for the time being.

Once Alice had calmed down, Donnie then remembered to notify the Taft Family, so he hurried to call William Howard Taft in the middle of the night.

After hearing the news, William Howard Taft said he would set off for Atlantic City as soon as it was light.

At the same time, Donnie’s core group in Atlantic City had also come over, and they took this matter very seriously. If Helen gave birth to a boy, that would be Donnie’s first son.

Although there is no primogeniture in the West, the first child is definitely someone to nurture carefully, meaning this child would very likely become the heir of the New Jersey Consortium.

Everyone was from the same interest group, and if Donnie’s eldest son turns out to be a success, then everyone’s interests would certainly be protected!

Under everyone’s expectant gazes, a nurse came out smiling, offering congratulations to Donnie; Helen had given birth to a 7.3-pound son for Donnie!
