America 1919-Chapter 922 - 315, New Member of Tarot Society

After essentially settling the matter with the Federal Reserve, Donnie finally had the time to deal with Mia Bock, the fallen princess.

At this moment, Mia Bock was standing alone in the garden of the estate, her silhouette appearing somewhat desolate.

After hearing the footsteps behind her, Mia Bock’s body trembled slightly. When she turned around, a smile had already appeared on her face.

"You’re here!"

Donnie pretended not to notice Mia Bock’s unease and wore a smile as well. "I’ve been quite busy lately. Are you getting used to this place?"

Mia Bock nodded and said, "I’m getting used to it. Although it’s a bit different from the United Kingdom, the differences aren’t too significant!"

Donnie sat down on the wicker chair beside him and asked, "As long as you’re comfortable. If there’s anything you’re not used to, feel free to let me know. As long as it’s a problem money can solve, I can handle it for you!"

Just today, news came from Breton Bank that in recent times, the amount deposited by its customers had risen by at least 30% compared to the same period before!

Although this money didn’t belong to Donnie, it indirectly proved that with Venus Bank becoming a shareholder of the Federal Reserve, more people were beginning to trust the strength of the New Jersey Consortium!

Simply put, Donnie at this moment was not only a handsome man but also a man who was extraordinarily wealthy.

So wealthy he had nothing but money!

"Are you very rich?"

Mia Bock looked at Donnie with some curiosity and then suddenly said self-deprecatingly, "That was a dumb question. If you weren’t rich, my father wouldn’t have made me come to the United States with you."

Donnie nodded and said, "You’re right, that was indeed a dumb question. But don’t worry, I don’t mind such things!"

Mia Bock suddenly became a bit angry. "Is love just a transaction in the eyes of people like you?"

"At least in my view, it is," Donnie didn’t deny Mia Bock’s statement but instead smiled and asked, "So, does that mean you had your own romantic experience while at Oxford?"

A trace of panic flashed through Mia Bock’s eyes. She shook her head and quickly replied, "No!"

Donnie saw her reaction but didn’t expose her lie. Instead, he asked, "I assume your father must have told you something about me, right?"

Mia Bock, now completely caught up in Donnie’s rhythm, nodded.

"He did mention a few things!"

Donnie smiled and asked, "Then do you know why I was able to become such a prominent figure in just a few years?"

"My father said you’re a genius!"

Mia Bock replied.

Donnie waved his hand dismissively. "The term ’genius’ is too vague, but I can tell you one of the reasons for my success!"

"What reason?"

"I have an exceptionally keen eye for people. For example, just now, I knew you were lying to me!"

Mia Bock grew more flustered but stubbornly said in the end, "Rest assured, I haven’t done anything inappropriate!"

Donnie nodded and said, "That much I believe. After all, your father has high expectations for you!"

Mia Bock remained silent.

Donnie, on the other hand, wore a curious expression as he asked, "So, can you tell me about your boyfriend... or that mutual friend you had feelings for?"

A trace of longing flickered across Mia Bock’s eyes as she spoke, "He’s an ambitious young man. Although his life is tough right now, I believe he’ll become a great man someday!"

Donnie smiled and continued to ask, "And can you tell me his name?"

This time, Mia Bock’s face showed an expression of panic. Although the Bock Family wasn’t a very prominent family in the United Kingdom and fell short of the standards of an Earl’s lineage, Mia Bock was still aware of what powerful families would do in such situations!

"If you don’t want to say, it’s fine. You should know that I can find out on my own," Donnie said calmly.

Mia Bock looked at Donnie with some fear. "What are you planning to do?"

Leaning back on the bench, Donnie replied casually, "If everything goes as planned, you will bear my child in the future. Later, our child will go to the United Kingdom. They might inherit the Earl’s title from your father or perhaps earn their own noble title directly from the King.

Ultimately, they will become my representative in the United Kingdom for my business ventures—serving as the president of a bank that spans across Europe and the East.

So, given all this, do you think I would allow anyone to disrupt my plans?"

Mia Bock understood Donnie’s meaning and wore a pained expression, pleading as she looked at him, "No, you can’t do this. He hasn’t done anything, and nothing ever happened between us!"

Donnie stared at Mia Bock without speaking, only shaking his head gently.

"If you insist on this, I’ll jump into the sea right here and now!"

Mia Bock pointed to the distant ocean.

Donnie remained motionless, speaking in a calm tone, "Feel free. If you do that, everything I promised your father will go up in smoke. Moreover, I’ll use my connections in the United Kingdom to ruthlessly suppress everything about your family there. I believe it won’t be long before your father loses his noble status, and your family may end up living in the slums of London someday."

At this moment, Donnie had no interest in frivolities like romantic flings or emotional investments with these women.

What Donnie possessed now was enough to allow him to make many decisions with ease.
