Chapter 774: 265, President’s Secret News_3

Now that he had spoken of divorcing Florence, it was not the first time he had mentioned this to Donnie, but the real outcome was that Harding chickened out every time before he took action.

Therefore, when Harding was speaking now, Donnie just listened.

Harding did not know Donnie’s opinion of him, so at this moment, upon hearing Donnie speak in such a way, he immediately showed a happy expression.

“Haha, I knew Donnie was supporting me!”

Donnie laughed, “We’re the best of friends, of course I support you!”

At this time, other guests also arrived one after the other, among them were Albert Furr and Harry D’Agostino.

Seeing Donnie and Harding chatting so joyfully, both of them displayed their own different expressions.

“Donnie, you’ve been in Washington for several days now, and you only called us today, do you feel there are more important friends to meet?”

Albert Furr said with a smile on his face.

Faced with Albert Furr’s provocation, Donnie replied with ease, “I called Mr. Harding the first day I arrived, it’s just that Mr. Harding has been quite busy, and only now have we arranged to meet!”

Here Donnie changed his reference to Harding from President to Mister.

“Indeed, that’s the case, Albert, you really are starting to enjoy making some unpleasant jokes among friends!”

This time Harding stood with Donnie, which made Donnie somewhat puzzled, even with the earlier discussion, it didn’t fit Harding’s character to not give this good friend face at this time!

In fact, what Donnie didn’t know was that in recent times, conflicts had arisen between Harding and Albert Furr.

The root of these conflicts was due to the Teapot Dome oil field issue.

There were already people starting to use this issue to attack Albert Furr, but Albert Furr, relying on his relationship with Harding and believing he had the backing of the oil tycoons, was indifferent to these accusations.

He even proclaimed that it was under Harding’s instructions that he acted this way.

This was the action of an unwise subordinate; a smart one should have taken all the responsibility on his own at this time, keeping his leader away from any association with the scandal.

No matter whether Harding benefited from this issue, Albert Furr’s behavior had already caused dissatisfaction.

That was why Harding was standing with Donnie this time.

Harding’s response also made Albert Furr a bit embarrassed.

Fortunately, at such parties, it was certain that these incidents wouldn’t affect the mood, so the subject was quickly changed by someone.

Everyone sat together, enjoying the luxurious food provided by the estate, while talking about some interesting current issues, and from time to time laughter filled the room.

At that point, Albert Furr even forgot the incident that had just occurred and began to talk about the stories from before he and Harding became President.

After the dinner ended, Harding suggested his regular little pastime, playing cards!

“Donnie, it’s only when I’m here that I can play cards without worries!”

Harding spoke of his troubles, saying that even when playing cards in the White House, by the next day some newspapers would know about it, which made Harding feel even more helplessness about his life.

“If you wish, you can come here to rest often. I believe no one here would leak this news, of course, if it’s someone else, I can’t make that guarantee!”

Donnie spoke with an implied meaning.

Harding fell silent.

At that moment, a servant came to Donnie’s side and whispered a few words.

Donnie stood up, “You guys go ahead and play, I have some private matters to take care of!”

Afterwards, Donnie left the place and went outside, where Steve Cotting finally spoke to Donnie.

“Boss, the person has been caught!”

Donnie waved his hand, “Confiscate his camera and send him away!”

It turned out that just now someone had been lurking outside Donnie’s estate, occasionally taking photos with a camera. The person’s hiding ability was very secretive, but for the bodyguards around Donnie, this level of hiding was nothing.
