American Tax Officer-Chapter 861 - 431 Katherine Arrives with the Wind_2
Chapter 861: Chapter 431: Katherine Arrives with the Wind_2 Chapter 861 -431: Katherine Arrives with the Wind_2 Yes, he was old enough not to care about himself and could continue to fight against David, but upon reflection, if the grand family were also involved, burdening so many descendants, that was not the result he wanted to see.
After all, in this world, there is nothing more important than family and kinship.
Perhaps stepping back now and quietly enjoying his old age might actually be a pleasant thing for someone of his age.
But just as Biden was beginning to change his mind, Wylder suddenly came over and said, “Mr. President, actually, we still have options.”
“Oh? What options?”
A worried Biden perked up upon hearing this.
“Um…”
At that moment, Wylder seemed to find it difficult to start speaking.
“At this point, just say what you need to!”
Wylder turned his gaze toward Lanny and others.
Biden also understood the implication and immediately told them, “Lanny, take them back first. This is a significant issue, and I will consider it carefully.”
“But…”
“There are no buts, I said I will handle it!”
Seeing Biden so resolute, Lanny and the others could do nothing but leave the office.
With everyone gone, Wylder organized his thoughts and said, “Actually, from the beginning, neither you, Mr. President, nor I agreed with confronting David directly, especially since we already knew this guy had collected our incriminating information. So I think Sullivan is to blame; he’s too arrogant!”
Biden seemed indifferent to this statement.
“So what I mean is, we need to talk to David and push Sullivan out to take the blame!”
“Pushing Sullivan out?!”
Biden pondered the possibility for a moment, then seemed to think of something and asked, “Given his character, even if we push Sullivan out to take the blame, it’s unlikely to stop him.”
“Of course, so besides that, we can assure him that whether he conducts any large-scale purges in New York or Texas, we will no longer interfere and might even publicly endorse him as compensation for this incident!”
“If we support him in everything, then in the future, we can no longer secretly benefit; we would be directly confronting The Big Three Groups…”
David’s major political purge in New York was essentially just to cripple the Freemasonry Group’s influence in the state.

If he moved on to the core areas of the Illuminati and the Angsa people, they at the White House would have to come forward and declare their support, which might effectively make them David’s vassals.
And this wasn’t even the most important aspect; with The Big Three Groups’ influence, they could interfere with many affairs of their White House.
“Mr. President, Pinkman’s recent articles have sparked great anger among the public. To quell it, we must get David to stand down or even seek his assistance!”
Biden furrowed his brow slightly and asked, “To seek his help, according to you, do you really want me to become his vassal?”
If it weren’t for David, he wouldn’t have fallen into this predicament.
So as Wylder’s intentions became more and more apparent, naturally, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
“Vassal or partner, it’s just a title, after all. Think about it, Mr. President, you’ve finally reached this position, do you want to hand it over to someone else so easily?”
“So if you want to hold onto this position, this is the only way!”
“Besides, many people are speculating that David will most likely go after the Federal Reserve next. If you also stand up and show your support, achieving this would be a great accomplishment, and if you are President during this time, this accomplishment will also be credited to you!”
“Your previous scandals could be diluted in the face of this absolute achievement!”
Wylder was lobbying so hard, of course, not just for Biden’s sake.
As Biden’s Chief of Staff, once Biden stepped down, he would naturally have to step aside too.
Thus, his lobbying was also to secure his own position!
But no matter what, Wylder’s words had completely moved President Biden.
Indeed, after spending so many years, having finally become the most powerful person in the world, who would willingly let go?
It had only been out of desperation before.
But now that there was a way, although this method was somewhat annoying and embarrassing, what did it matter if it allowed him to continue holding power?
Moreover, under his support, if he really could bring the Federal Reserve under state control, that would be an achievement not even President Kennedy had managed.
Such a tremendous accomplishment could indeed offset the scandal he was currently embroiled in!
There were promising prospects!
“You make sense, but if we do this, what about The Big Three Groups…”
President Biden was still worried about the impact of openly opposing The Big Three Groups.
“Mr. President, David is not an inexperienced leader now; he controls the majority of the members in both the Senate and House of Representatives, several of America’s most powerful law enforcement agencies, and the influential families in various states, including the Kennedy and Trump families, and their array of ‘thugs’.”
“If we add the power of our White House, that would create an overwhelming force. With so much combined power, do you think The Big Three Groups could really stir up much trouble?”
President Biden stroked his chin.
David already controlled the FBI, CIA, NSA, and other powerful American institutions, as well as the influential families and Congress.
On the other hand, The Big Three Groups had significant influence in the military and finance sectors but were not much of a threat otherwise.
After weighing the pros and cons, President Biden made up his mind and then instructed, “First, send a message to Obadiah Ville Tonghen and ask them to come for a discussion!”
Due to the prior purge and the discontent David had with the FBI, sending a direct message might lead to them declining, which could be embarrassing.
Thus, the best approach was to first contact the senior officials of the Internal Revenue Service, Obadiah Ville Tonghen, negotiate with them, and then have them communicate with David; that was the wise choice.
“Understood, Mr. President.”
…
In an office at the Manhattan Branch in New York.
“Inspector David, President Biden is really clueless, not only interfering with your affairs in New York but also daring to meddle with the FBI. You can’t continue to indulge him anymore; today he dares to interfere with the FBI, tomorrow he might directly target the CIA or even the IRS!”
Seeing President Biden’s scandals being continually exposed by David, Katherine couldn’t sit still anymore and immediately took a private jet to find David in New York.
The last time, despite the bill issue, President Biden had eventually signed it, leading to Katherine’s presidential dream evaporating.
As retaliation, she was then sidelined by the White House, not allowed to show up at various occasions, which was deeply frustrating for her.
Now, seeing the direct conflict erupt between David and Biden, she was utterly thrilled, hoping David would decisively deal with Biden so she could ascend immediately.
“Vice President Katherine, next, I will continue to assess the situation accordingly. If I really need you, then you’re indeed the only option left.”
“Inspector David…”
“Beep beep beep…”
Just as Katherine was about to make her plea, the ringing phone on the desk interrupted her, and she reluctantly shut her mouth.
“Alright, Vice President Katherine, whether you get to succeed this time or not, I can assure you that you won’t be sidelined again in the future; consider this a form of compensation from me. Let’s leave it at that.”
Although he had previously made it clear that the agreement to help the Vice President rise to power would be put on hold if President Biden agreed to sign, Katherine had indeed played her part, leading to her current ostracism by the White House, something David felt somewhat responsible for.
