Triumph Above All novel

Chapter 229

“On the day of Naomi’s wedding, Skylar gifted her a vintage necklace that’s worth five million dollars.

After that, he purchased a mansion for his father with twelve million dollars. Then, he heard that we

were planning a grand reception for your return, so he purchased a luxury car that cost around eight

hundred thousand dollars. Do you think a person that can whip out all that money is just a corporal?”

Megan said.

Everyone knew where she was getting at. They speculated that Skylar obtained his wealth through

shady means. Everyone glared at Skylar, especially Pearl as she held a grudge for the incident that

happened at the parking lot the day before.

“Seems like you’re not just on par with the general, but way beyond that. Now spit it out! Where did you

get all that money from? I could go easy on you right now, but you know well of the consequences that

you’ll be facing when you return to the military.” Norman said.

Spencer said, “Nathaniel, I’ve warned you about adopting a child. Just look at him! He made all that

money through unjust means within the military. If we were in the past, our whole family would be

hanged for that!”

“That’s impossible! My son will never do anything illegal in the military,” Nathaniel uttered. “Anything is

possible. That mansion of yours must be comfy. Have you never thought about how Skylar obtained

the money for that?” Spencer sneered.

He continued, “Norman is about to become the second Secretary of Defense, yet he does not make

that much money. They prioritize honesty within the military. If someone managed to make a fortune,

you know what that means.”

Nathaniel was rendered speechless. However, Skylar remained collected after all of that. He smiled

and said, “Well, go ahead and report it to headquarters.”

“Alright, you asked for this! I don’t care who you’re working with, no one will ever get away with

breaking the laws in the military! If I can’t handle you, the general will. There’s no way that you and

your accomplice will have more authority than him!” Norman uttered.

“Cut it out with all that nonsense and get on with your investigation,” Skylar said. He was getting slightly

annoyed by all the fuss that everyone was making.

“Norman, I can see a military jeep coming our way!” someone exclaimed. Everyone shifted their focus

to the road. The jeep gradually approached their destination.
