Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 23 You’re Back!

The living room was very lively, and no one noticed Skylar’s presence.

His adoptive mother, Winona, served Brian some soup and said, “Our little Naomi isn’t good at housework, Brian.”

“You should be patient with her and clean up the house together once she’s married into the Stephenson family.”

“Oh, what are you worrying about, Winona? The Stephenson family is wealthy and noble. They have servants that help out in the family. Naomi would be a noble lady once she’s a part of the Stephenson family. Why in the world would she have to clean up the house?”

“Not to mention, such a fine young lad like Mr. Stephenson is destined to do great things. Unlike my brother who’s walking around the kitchen all day” Naomi’s uncle sneered.

“That’s right, Mr. Stephenson came from one of the wealthiest families in Cloudtopia! It truly is a blessing for our Naomi to be able to marry him!” Naomi’s uncle agreed.

“Yeah, Mr. Stephenson, don’t you forget to count us in if you have any good projects to make a fortune in the future!”

“Our family is counting on you!”

A group of people held wine glasses up high and cheered for Brian.

Brian’s ego was at its peak at that moment, but he still pretended to be humble on the surface. “We’re all family, you can just call me Brian.”

“The Stephenson family’s fortune is quite small compared to the entirety of Cloudtoopia. Please don’t think too highly of me.”

“Oh please, the Stephenson family is powerful. If it wasn’t for you and Naomi, I wouldn’t be that proud in public.” Naomi’s uncle patted Brian on his shoulders while giving him a toast.

He showed a lot of enthusiasm.
