Afterward, Harry Sinclair informed Hein Howell about Donnieâs relationships with the princesses of both the Taft and Roosevelt families.
Upon hearing this, Hein couldnât help but exclaim, "Doesnât Donnie realize heâs playing with fire? Does he dare to provoke the princesses of the Taft and Roosevelt families at the same time?"
"Who knows!" Harry Sinclair said with a hint of envy, "But now we can be sure that itâs Donnie Block whoâs behind this!"
Hein asked, "So will the Taft Family make a move? Whether they act or not is a completely different concept!"
Harry Sinclair replied, "Iâve already inquired through my connections, and someone from the Taft Family said that this matter has nothing to do with their family!"
Unable to contain his skepticism, Hein inquired further, "Could they be deceiving you and actually want to use Donnie to gain a foothold in the oil industry?"
This wasnât an impossibility, especially since Helenâs identity was quite special!
Hearing Heinâs question, Harry Sinclair, somewhat helplessly, picked up the phone and dialed a number, after triple-checking with the other party, he reassured Hein: "It should not be. The Taft Family is currently putting all their effort into supporting Robert Taftâs political advancement. They wouldnât get involved in this now!"
Hein finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didnât ask Harry Sinclair whom he called, but he understood that Harry was more concerned about this matter than himself.
"All right, if thatâs the case, then itâs going to be easier for us to keep sweeping up stocks in the market, but..."
"But what?" Harry Sinclair asked.
"But weâve already taken over 270,000 US dollars worth of stocks from Donnieâs hands, and it looks like he still has some left, Harry, you need to prepare some cash!"
In the span of a day and a half, Jesse Livermore had sold a total of 730,000 shares of Sinclair Oil, and although the stock price had dropped a bit during this period, the decline wasnât significant, hovering around 45 cents.
The only reason Hein Howell spent just 270,000 US dollars was that other people were also vying for Sinclair Oilâs shares!
"No problem, Iâll have the company deposit 700,000 US dollars into the account tomorrow. I believe that will be enough!"
To date, Harry Sinclair still believed that Donnie couldnât possibly have too much cash on hand, and saw Donnieâs actions as more of a way to annoy him.
"Okay!" said Hein Howell, nodding. He too was confident in his deduction that under the current circumstances, unless there were policy issues, it was unlikely that there would be a large drop in oil stocks.
Hein Howell didnât underestimate Donnie, but he also believed that Donnie wouldnât just throw away over one million dollarsâ worth of stocks for the sake of spite.

"By now, Wall Street probably already knows about Helenâs identity!"
William Mellon was sitting at a booth on the second floor of Block Tavern, next to him sat a somewhat green bunny girl.
However, his attention was not on the bunny girl, but on Donnie. To be honest, he was somewhat envious of Donnie at this moment.
Back in Washington, he had already heard about the rumored relationship between Donnie, Harlan, and Alice. Although he was sure Donnie wouldnât dare to provoke the princesses of the two powerful families, he still envied Donnieâs deep relationships with them.
Donnie Block was already showing signs of a rise. If he could now make an alliance through marriage with either the Roosevelt or Taft family, then in the future, among Americaâs top-tier elites, there might indeed be a place for the Block family.
"It was meant to be known, I thought they wouldâve figured it out by this afternoon!"
Donnie leaned back in his chair, a smile on his face as he listened to the lively jazz music downstairs.
William Mellon said, "But you do realize that given Harry Sinclairâs network, he will know that the Taft Family wonât help you in this matter!"
Donnie chuckled and said, "Whether Harry Sinclair believes it or not isnât important, the important thing is that as long as some people think that the Taft Family might enter the fray, thatâs good enough!"
Shaking his head, William Mellon said, "Donnie, realistically, things have come far enough. After this event, no one will underestimate you anymore, so why push it to a point where blood is drawn? Once you go that far, you wonât be able to back down!"
Donnie looked at William Mellon with a touch of surprise and responded, "If this were to end now, it wouldnât be good news for the Mellon family!"
William Mellon laughed heartily, "Donnie, how old are you now? Youâre just in your twenties, while I am only in my forties. We are both young, with long roads ahead of us. Experience exclusive tales on novelbuddy
I can speak frankly with you; our Mellon family is very optimistic about your future prospects, so we want to be not just your business partners but also partners in life.
As friends, the Mellon family can forgo some immediate benefits because we believe your future will certainly be brighter!"
Donnie was rather taken aback. Although after William Mellon, the Mellon family no longer had a dominant figure, and the family gradually faded from public discourse in later generations, the Mellon family had always been one of New Yorkâs top families.
Perhaps thatâs why their family had been able to thrive for centuries.
"The Mellon family can wait, but I canât afford to wait anymore. Since you say weâre friends, William, then as a friend I can tell you, I will win this battle!"
