Wooden, simple-minded, and awkwardly out of place with the glittering world of fame and fortune—these characteristics made the admiral faintly uneasy. Such people often make unexpected moves.
The Admiral had handed "Harden" a gilded business card, assuming the other party would tactfully visit in the following days to show respect and align themselves.
A few days passed, and everything was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any response.
Admiral Alvin couldn't help but speculate in his heart whether this "Harden" was pretending to be aloof or truly ignorant of worldly affairs, to the point of not proactively aligning with any faction?
Indeed, I haven't heard of this rapidly ascending 'political newcomer' actively approaching any faction in Washington D.C.
"This guy...does he naively think that by pledging allegiance to that precarious Vice President, he can carve out a world for himself in Washington D.C.?"
