Uh…
Alright, you are a legend!
Truman took a deep drag of his cigar, exhaled, and said,
"This really is a legend. But, Pierre, actually, if you had kept those arms…"
"Perhaps that would be even better."
Truman's suggestion caught Pierre off guard; it was clearly beyond his expectations.
"What?"
"North Borneo," Truman stated bluntly.
"I know you've acquired the North Borneo Company. Perhaps when the war ends, I can offer some assistance. But the British—they will stop you by any means necessary. So, I think you should contribute your share during the war."
As a quintessential politician, Truman knew exactly what he should do. His suggestion left Pierre a bit at a loss. He said,
"Contribute? Harry, what do you mean by that?"
Truman, holding a cigar, looked at Pierre and said,
"Get involved in the war."
"Get involved…"
Pierre frowned slightly and asked,
"How would I get involved? I'm just a company."
