America 1919-Chapter 1089 - 372, Rupture_2

Donnie did not answer Alice’s question, but instead picked up the phone and called Robert: "Come over to my place!"

After speaking, Donnie hung up, but immediately the phone on Donnie’s desk rang.

It was Rhode Granger calling to tell Donnie that the problem on his side had been resolved and also to relay Edgar Hoover’s attitude to Donnie.

"Once you get the list, send someone to Atlantic City immediately, and give it to Chris!" Donnie said, "As for Edgar Hoover’s business, you don’t need to worry, handle it as he arranges!"

"Understood!" Rhode Granger answered.

Robert was now one of the few people who could come to Block Manor at this time, but even so, Robert knew that if something huge hadn’t happened, Donnie wouldn’t be calling him here now!

So, as soon as Robert received Donnie’s call, he rushed to Block Manor.

"Edgar must go!" Donnie said his plan without waiting for Robert to inquire.

Donnie understood Edgar Hoover well; after this event, there was no way for them to return to their previous cooperative state, and Edgar Hoover would surely choose to act against him again at some point in the future.

Given this, Donnie could no longer let Edgar Hoover sit in the Director position of the FBI.

Even if this person had a very illustrious reputation on another timeline!

Although Robert had thought that it was a big deal to see Donnie today, he hadn’t expected it to be such a colossal affair.

"Removing Edgar is easy, but the consequences of removing him are quite severe!" Robert did not hide his thoughts from Donnie.

Donnie informed Robert of what had just happened.

"...According to my understanding of Edgar, this person could no longer stand on our side in the future!" Donnie explained.

After knowing the course of events, Robert’s mindset also changed: "We now need to consider two things: first, what means we use to remove Edgar, whether through official channels or handle it privately?"

"What do you think about this matter?" Donnie asked.

"If it’s through official channels, I think the difficulty is very high, because if Edgar Hoover dared to do such a thing today, then surely there is a political force behind him. So if we want to use someone who is in our interest to relieve Edgar of his position in the FBI, then there will undoubtedly be forces that will prevent this from happening, and the force won’t be small.

Additionally, we can’t be sure whether those with shared interests with us would be genuinely willing to have Edgar leave the Director position of the FBI.

If we solve it privately, the process is simple, but the aftermath of removing Edgar is substantial because Edgar Hoover holds a high position. If we just eliminate him, even without evidence, it would lead many with shared interests thinking of us as too overbearing!"

Robert shared his thoughts with Donnie.

Donnie said, "This is exactly what I’m concerned about!"

Robert did not say anything else at this time; he knew that in such matters, Donnie had to make the final decision!

Finally, Donnie said, "First, you organize the people who can do this job, and wait for my order!"

Robert knew Donnie had made his decision, and said, "Edgar being the Director of the FBI, his abilities are undoubtedly strong. I think for this task, we should choose someone with the best skills!"

Donnie nodded, agreeing with Robert’s suggestion!

Although removing Edgar Hoover is something that must be done, Donnie will not act now; at least, not until after the radium product issue is resolved will Donnie be able to carry out this matter.

Because Donnie must personally make a trip to Washington, Robert was right. Eliminating Edgar Hoover is not particularly difficult; the difficulty lies in resolving all the various troublesome issues that arise before eliminating Edgar Hoover.

Moreover, many questions remain unresolved now.

Donnie knew it wouldn’t be long before the phone on his desk would start ringing continuously!

These calls were also waiting for Edgar Hoover to notify others about what had happened earlier.

"The operation was botched, and the person wasn’t brought out!"

Edgar Hoover was sitting in his office, his expression as gloomy as Washington’s weather at that moment, overcast!

"What?" The other party was obviously very shocked when they heard this answer: "You, as the Director, can’t even bring out one person from under your subordinates?"

Hearing the questioning tone, Edgar Hoover took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and recounted the whole incident to the other party.

After listening, the other party also understood the difficulties Edgar Hoover had to face at the time.

"From your understanding of Donnie Block, do you think he will really make this list public?"

"No!" Edgar Hoover answered firmly, "But Donnie will definitely keep this list; maybe one day it will become leverage for Donnie against all of you!"

The other party fell silent again, then after a long time, finally spoke again, "I understand, you don’t need to involve yourself in this matter anymore!"

Then the other party hung up the phone!
