The vampire lords snickered, crystal glasses held high in their hands. They moved to another room, which was also still in the Dubois residence. A large hall with marble floors greeted them with luxury. There were large pillars carved with art reliefs and supporting the high dome roof, and carpets made by hand and imported from faraway lands.
All noble families like to flaunt their wealth. The Dubois family was no exception. For them it was not a form of arrogance but an affirmation of their power. Shows that their family deserves respect and credibility. There was nothing wrong with being extravagant as long as they were responsible for the source of their wealth.
