“Easy for him to say when Fabian is the one who’s actually paying for it,” Jason spoke straightforwardly. “He clearly doesn’t care for the teapot, so he’ll probably resell it once he grows tired of it. After all, this is the mindset he used to prosper his fortune.”

Hearing this, Helen now frowned at Luther. All that big talk of yours… and you’ve just been using my brother-in-law’s money?

Luther’s ears burned a bright red from embarrassment. He chuckled dryly and explained, “It’s beyond my control. Your brother-in-law is so prideful that he insists on paying for every auction, even I can’t convince him otherwise.”
