Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 16

Betty said, “I remember that the old lady gave me a call earlier. She told me to persuade Yulia to sign the apology letter. She had a great attitude as well!”

“The old lady had never been this kind to me since I became a part of the Sue family.”

“Uhm… my mom had always been like that.”

Lincoln felt a little awkward.

Betty rolled her eyes “Dammit, why does she treat Skylar’s family differently? Isn’t it because you’re useless?”

“I thought about that day when Skylar visited home for two days. His presence made me sick. You’d be worse than him if it weren’t for your decent background.”

Lincoln spoke, “I…”

Betty continued, “Don’t you think that Skylar is poor?”

“He could release someone from the Northern police station just with a call although he doesn’t have a badge?”

“Could Skylar be a general who’s hiding his identity?”

Lincoln grinned bitterly, “How did you become more imaginative than me?”

“Why would he pledge his loyalty to the United States for 5 years if he has such a high rank in the military?”

“He even spent all his money and got dumped by his blind date.”

“Isn’t it pitiful;?”

Betty nodded and asked, “Then, how would you explain when he made that phone call to release Yvonne and Nicholas from the Northern Police station?”

“Perhaps he knew someone with authority to do so.”

Lincoln’s eyes lit up all of a sudden. “That could be possible.”

“Skylar had been a soldier for 6 years, and he must have known his comrades incredibly well.”

“Yeah, maybe one of them ended up becoming an authority figure.”
