Arthur corrected upon hearing: "It's not Di Israel, it's Di..."
Before Arthur could finish his sentence, Disraeli exclaimed: "Damn it! You actually guessed right."
This statement surprised Arthur: "Benjamin, did you change your surname?"
Disraeli said with a displeased face: "It's not that I changed my surname, I was originally surnamed Di Israel. Did you forget? I am a second-generation immigrant, my grandfather was from the wealth city Venice in Italy, a true Italian Sephardic Jew. You should know, the Italian middle name 'Di' is like the German 'Von', the Dutch 'Van', meaning 'from'. The true meaning of our family's surname is 'from Israel'."
"From Israel?" Arthur counted on his fingers: "Then it seems your family has rooted in Venice for quite a few years."
