While Luca was this close to hyperventilating about this sudden display of wealth for such unnecessary spending, there was one who preferred to encourage it.

Xavier was fine with the Imperial household spending on these products because he was sure about the quality.

Two, this was the least they could do for someone who would be the backbone of this Empire.

It was just that he noticed the Butler's expression.

Had he been using sanctioned Imperial funds, the normally poised Butler wouldn't look a little green in the face.

Hmm. Xavier's eyes narrowed as he thought of the possibilities and decided to check on someone's piggy bank.

And the likely culprit?

It was little Nina.

Her long-saved piggy bank was suddenly emptied just hours before the auction.

No wonder the Old Henry looked like he was about to pop a vein.

Kyle actually noticed the Imperial Butler and was just glad they hadn't been spotted yet.
