"That's right, under such circumstances, Donnie, you definitely wouldn't let Atlantic City Broadcast go public!"
By the time he said this, William Mellon was utterly certain.
Donnie couldn't help but applaud William Mellon and laughed, "William, why don't you give up Gulf Oil and come to be my president?"
Although Donnie's business was doing well, he always lacked a suitable right-hand man. Helen could actually do it, but if Helen were to do it, it would involve the Taft and Roosevelt families, and while Donnie also liked Helen, he couldn't fully trust her before their relationship was formally established.
Of course, William Mellon was even less likely to be trusted by Donnie, but one area where William Mellon was stronger than Helen was that the Mellon Family lacked an heir!
A family in the business field without a distinguished successor is, to Donnie, the safest option.
