Triumph Above All Chapter 34


    Chapter 34


    Skr waspletely speechless to hear that.


    He wondered if his step-father would be surprised if he found out that his granddaughter was already in


    preschool. However, he still could not tell Nathaniel the truth yet, since Yulia did not exactly agree to be


    his yet. So, he could not rush things then.


    So, Skr had to ept Nathaniel’s offer reluctantly as he nodded and went to Naomi’s room.


    Meanwhile at the same time.


    A group of women had gathered around Naomi as they gossiped amongst themselves.


    “Whoa Naomi, your ne is really pretty. How much was it though?” A girl with a ponytail asked.


    “About three-hundred thousand I think… Brian bought it for me and this series actually has a very


    romantic name. It’s called the Blue Ocean’s Myth,” Naomi replied while feeling the pendant around her


    ne.


    The girl with a ponytail was Naomi’s cousin, Ash Munoz.


    Ash was very envious of Naomi after hearing that. This only made Naomi feel even more smug about


    herself.


    See, choosing Brian was the right choice after all. I’d be able to be the center of attention anywhere I


    go. Gosh, I’m d I didn’t wait for Skr like aplete fool. I mean, he’s nothing but a penniless


    footsoldier. He didn’t even have a job after he’s discharged. I don’t think he even has thirty-thousand


    dors, let alone three-hundred million. However, none of this matters now. I’d be able to live an easy


    life after I marry Brian. I’d be able to attend countless parties everyday, so why would I even bother with


    a nobody like Skr anyway?


    However, just as Naomi was lost in her thoughts, Ash asked, “Hey, I heard that Brian had brought you


    to the exhibition two days ago. Could he have bought it there?”


    Naomi shook her head and chuckled as she said, “No. He bought it from Goldspan Jewelry at Ocean


    Street. But, I did go to the exhibition though and I was so drawn by the prized jewel in the exhibition. It’s


    called the Red Dust. It’s such a shame that it’s too expensive though! That piece is more than four-


    hundred million dors. Even Brian was shocked by its price tag. So, I could only go for my second


    choice and picked the Blue Ocean’s Myth.


    As soon as everyone heard about the exhibition, their eyes glimmered and began talking about it.


    “Oh Naomi, I love the Red Dust too. It’s just so stunning and elegant. Gosh, if I could wear it on my


    wedding day, everyone would be so drawn to me, “One of her bridesmaids said.


    Another girl with sses said, “I actually prefer the Star of Cullinan. It’s very low profile, but the detail is


    excellent.”


    This girl was none other than the girl Nathaniel told Skr about. Her name was Sally Gutierrez


    A short haired girl chuckled and said, “I love them both, but they were bought by a mystery wealthy


    person though.”


    “Good gosh, both nes would cost that person 1.3 billion dors! I wonder who exactly is that


    wealthy!”


    “I’m actually more interested to find out who that person would give the nes to. Oh, how I envy


    the girl who’d get the nes. I’d be driven mad if I was the lucky girl.”


    “What if the wealthy person was an old man?”


    “I’d be willing to ept him!”


    “Gosh, you sure are shameless!”


    The girls gossiped amongst themselves.


    Suddenly, someone yelled at the door. “Naomi.”


    When Naomi turned, she could see Skr walking in her room.


    She frowned and coldly said, “Oh, you’re here, Skr.”


    “Is he your long lost brother, Skr?” One of the girls asked.


    Naomi nodded.


    Ash nced at Skr and said, “Yeah, he’s Naomi’s adopted brother. I have no idea what my uncle


    sees in him. I mean, he even agreed to let Naomi marry him before he was enlisted. However, he lost


    all contact the second year he was enlisted. So, he returns after Naomi is about to get married? Gosh,


    who knows what he’s actually thinking.”


    Ash gave Skr a peculiar nce after that. This made the entire room awkward.


    Especially Sally. It seemed that she had decided topletely write Skr off in her heart.


    It seemed that her family had wanted her to get to know Skr after he returned. However, she never


    expected him to be this unreliable.


    Skr ignored Ash and was not bothered by how the other girls judged him. He took out a box and told


    Naomi, “Hey Naomi, I was at the exhibition yesterday and bought you a ne as your wedding gift.”

    “The exhibition?”


    Ash intentionally raised her voice and said, “It wouldn’t be the Red Dust that Naomi wanted, right? Oh


    gosh Skr, could you be the mystery wealthy buyer?”


    “How did you know?”


    Skr was a little surprised because aside from Dianne, he had never told anyone about it before.


    Pfft! Ash burst outughing with the other girls. They all felt that Skr was pretty good at boasting


    without substance.


    “Gosh Skr, you’re really disgusting.” Ash looked disgusted before pointing at the ne around


    Naomi’s neck as she said, “Why don’t you take a good look at this. This happens to be thetest


    product by Goldspan Jewelry, the Blue Ocean’s Myth. This ne is about three-hundred thousand


    dors. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself for giving her this garbage?”
