Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 24 God of War

Skylar took a closer look at Brian and thought of why Brian treated him differently from before.

Looking at everyone’s shocked expression, he nodded and said, “Mom, dad, I still have something to do here, so I decided to drop by.”

“I’m glad to see everyone’s still doing well. Carry on with your meals, Uncle and Aunts. I’m heading back now.”

“You’re leaving now? How can this be? You haven’t been home for six years and you’re leaving? At least stay for the night!” Nathaniel quickly took Skylar’s hand and said.

Skylar took the opportunity to hug him. Then said, “Dad, I’ll be staying here for a long time for this mission.”

“Alright. I know your task is important but it will be Naomi’s wedding in two days. Will you be able to attend the wedding ceremony?” Nathaniel asked.

“Naomi’s my sister, of course, I’ll make time to attend the wedding!” Skylar looked at Naomi and smiled.

For some reason, Naomi sat at the table blankly without any response.

“Oh, alright, Naomi, don’t be in the way of Skylar’s duties!” Winona answered quickly to avoid the situation from getting awkward.

“Okay, I’ll take him downstairs.” Nathaniel happily dragged Skylar away.

After they left, everyone turned their attention toward Brian who was sitting in the main seat.

“Mr. Stephenson, you seem to be afraid of Skylar. Wasn’t he just a soldier? I’ve never heard of him doing something great.”

“Does he have a secret identity?”

“I don’t think so. He joined the army before he finished high school. He’s only 25 this year. How could he have accomplished that much?”
