Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 41

“Oh Skylar, you’re here!”

Naomi could not stop crying when she saw Skylar. It was as if she was a bullied child to finally meet her parents.

Plenty of people were staring at Skylar.

So, he’s the mysterious wealthy buyer that bought the Red Dust.

However, not only were Naomi’s relatives and Ash’s relatives unappreciative of Skylar standing up for them, they were all wondering just how a penniless footsoldier like him could afford a four-hundred million dollars necklace.

Meanwhile, Mandy started to panic a little after Skylar’s relentless questioning. However, she was still quite experienced in dealing with problems, so it did not take long for her to calm down. She said, “Were you the person that Naomi was begging us to wait for? Do you think you’re awesome because you could afford a Red Dust? Come on now, you’re still an arrogant little peasant boy!”

After that, she turned her focus to Naomi and said, “Don’t you ever think for a second that I would change your mind about you just because you have your brother who’d just gotten lucky! Whatever value you think it’s impressive, is nothing to me! Can’t you see, everyone seated at the VIP table is here for our family! Anyone of them is easily significantly more impressive than your brother!”

Mandy intentionally glanced at Mr. Crawford and the crowd with a smug look.

She knew that anyone who could afford the Red Dust should not be underestimated. However, they were nothing in comparison to the few people around the VIP table. She knew that they were there for her family.

Since her family was graced by every guests’ presence, how could they possibly be pressured by an impulsive nobody?

Every guest turned their attention to the VIP table after hearing Mandy’s reply.

Their expressions changed drastically as soon as they noticed who those people were.

“Isn’t that Mr. Lawson?”

“Mr. Zander is here too!”

“Whoa, aside from Mr. Shepard, Mr Wexler is here too!”

“Good gosh, that is Mr. Lawson! He’s the most powerful person in the city! Has the Stephenson family’s reputation improved to such an extent already?”

Some of them gasped when they could not contain their emotions anymore.

Naomi’s friends immediately shook their heads at her, telling her to not give up on the marriage for Skylar.

Although they were surprised by the expensive necklace Skylar gave her, they knew that the Stephenson family were more powerful then. Besides, they understood that some connections could not be bought.

However, just as everyone assumed that Skylar was undoubtedly losing the argument, Mr. Lawson got up and greeted Skylar with a bow and exclaiming with a very loud voice, “Greetings,

Mr. Stone!”

The entire room was instantly silenced after that. Everyone was completely stunned by such a display.

They were all second guessing what they heard. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Mr. Lawson, you’re…” Mandy’s smile grew stiff in that instant.

However, before Mr. Lawson could say anything, the others got up and greeted Skylar with a bow, “Greetings, Mr. Stone!”

Every one of them got up and greeted Skylar very politely.

It turned out that they were all there to meet the bride, Naomi. Although they had never met Naomi before, they knew that she was Skylar’s sister. This reason alone was enough to convince

them to come.

They only showed up uninvited to meet Skylar. Apparently, they had never even heard of the Stephenson family or their wedding.
