xico City, Caesars Palace.
Since the establishnt of Caesars Palace in xico City, it has been destined to be the most luxurious hotel in all of xico.
Anyone who cos to xico who doesn’t stay at least once at Caesars Palace might as well have not visited xico at all.
Joe Charles naturally stayed at Caesars Palace upon arriving in xico City.
Although Joe Charles holds no regard for Donnie Block!
Joe Charles is the archetype of a British traditional nobleman.
Simply put, he is old money!
In Joe Charles’s eyes, Donnie Block is rely new money!
In fact, Joe Charles doesn’t just look down on Donnie; he disdains all wealthy people from the United States.
At this mont, Joe Charles sits on the sofa in his suite’s living room, with a steaming cup of tea on the coffee table before him.
Standing beside Charles is Wally yer, a butler in his sixties, dressed in a three-piece suit.
"I heard Donnie Block arrived in xico City last night?"
At a re glance from Joe Charles towards the tea on the table, Wally yer picked it up for him.
Joe Charles took the tea without any expression.
"Yes, sir!" Wally yer reported to Joe Charles: "After arriving in xico City last night, Donnie Block went directly to the Presidential Office to et with Escovar and Aguirre.
However, I haven’t yet figured out what they discussed."
Saying this, Wally yer showed a hint of anxiousness.
Joe Charles chuckled and said, "What else could they have discussed? Just matters concerning those two silver mines in xico!"
Wally yer respectfully said, "Your insight is indeed comprehensive, sir!"
Joe Charles complained slightly, "It’s already 10 AM, and that Donnie Block has yet to pay his respects. How detestable!"
Wally yer echoed, "Truly detestable, that Donnie Block is!"
Joe Charles remarked, "Riding on the influence of the Bock Family and Churchill, lacking in proper education, just a bumpkin who got lucky and made so money, now looks down on others!"
Regarding Donnie’s situation, Joe Charles understood well.
He knew about Donnie Block’s ties to the Bock Family and his connection with Churchill!
This wasn’t a secret in the United Kingdom.
Speaking of the Bock Family, Joe Charles scoffed, "That old Bock has truly shad us British nobles, letting his daughter follow Donnie Block in such a shaful manner."
Wally yer nodded, "The actions of Earl Bock are indeed regrettable!"
In the United Kingdom, the conduct of Earl Bock was despised by the British nobility.
As Joe Charles put it, they believed Earl Bock’s sycophantic behavior towards Donnie was a disgrace to the British nobility.
However, nobles with the absolute financial power and influence like Joe Charles could disdain Earl Bock’s family without a care.
But those down-and-out British nobles, like Earl Bock was before eting Donnie, scorned him in their hearts while actively seeking connections with him.
"Let’s go, let’s take a stroll to the casino!"
Joe Charles stood up.
Wally yer slightly bowed, "Sir, should I give Donnie Block a call?"
Though unspoken, Wally yer knew clearly that they didn’t have the upper hand in the matter of the xican silver mines.
Firstly, xico is geographically closer to the United States.
Secondly, Britain’s hard power is indeed currently inferior to that of the United States. While Joe Charles may feign ignorance of this, Wally yer must understand it.
Lastly, whether in terms of relationships with Aguirre and Escovar or in terms of strength compared to Donnie, they are inferior to Donnie Block.
Similarly, while Joe Charles might pretend not to know this, Wally yer must be clearly aware!
Joe Charles raised an eyebrow slightly, "You want a Duke of the British Empire to actively invite an Arican upstart?"
Wally yer lowered his head and denied, "Of course not, sir, it would be calling Donnie Block and inviting him to et you!"
Only then did Joe Charles regain his composure, and after pondering for a mont, said, "Alright, but not now. I just want to spend the afternoon in the Golden Hall, not to et him!"
Wally yer nodded.
"Alright then, I need to change my clothes; you go and tend to your business first!"
Joe Charles was already dressed in formal wear and didn’t usually have the habit of changing outfits before heading out.
But he decided to do so this ti around.
Once Joe Charles returned to the bedroom, Wally yer made the call to Donnie’s room.
A few minutes later, Joe Charles walked out of his bedroom in a newly changed tailcoat.
Wally yer was already standing at the door of Joe Charles’s bedroom.
Yet, at that mont, Wally yer looked sowhat anxious.
"Expressions like that harm the image of our British Empire!"
Joe Charles remarked disapprovingly upon seeing Wally yer’s expression.
"Yes, sir!" Wally yer imdiately restored his calm, steady expression, saying, "I’ve just spoken with Donnie Block’s room, and his secretary stated... Donnie Block plans to inspect Caesars Palace’s operations today, so..."
"Hmph!" Joe Charles snorted coldly, and Wally yer stopped speaking.
"Let’s go!"
Joe Charles stepped out of his suite, flanked by two guards dressed in black.
