Donnie spoke to Nate.
Nate quickly brought Reggie Vanderbilt to Donnie's office.
Reggie Vanderbilt, pale and hollow-eyed, now looked like he was at death's door. Donnie suspected he wasn't just gambling!
"Donnie, you're truly impressive. I already read about it in the paper—I didn't expect you'd become a member of the Federal Reserve Council!"
Reggie Vanderbilt greeted Donnie with a sycophantic smile.
Donnie feigned surprise: "Reggie, what's happened to you? How long has it been since we last met? You should go see a doctor looking like this!"
Reggie Vanderbilt waved dismissively: "No need to see a doctor; I'm perfectly healthy. But I do need some help from you, Donnie!"
Donnie nodded and said, "Nate has already told me about your situation. As friends, it's only natural that I help you out if you have a problem. But the amount you're asking for right now is just too much—a whole million US Dollars!"
