Harry had no intention of truly exploring Donnie's inner thoughts because, in his heart, once Harding became President, Donnie had to serve Harding.
"However, Donnie, after tonight's gala ends, I have a friend who is very eager to meet you. Haven't you said before that we are friends? Since we are friends, my friends are naturally your friends too!"
Plus, I can assure you that meeting this friend will be greatly beneficial for you!"
Donnie didn't fully trust Harry's words. Considering all those who came to Atlantic City, not a single one had arrived with a purely simple purpose. They were all looking to take a bite out of Atlantic City or out of him. Now, to believe that there was no harm in interactions with them, Donnie could only smile.
"Of course, since we're friends, meeting is certainly no problem. But Harry, as friends, shouldn't you hint to me what tonight's friend is really thinking?"
