Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 25

Chapter 25 A Little Dog?

Ocean Hill was built on a hill with a panoramic view of the harbor, as its name suggested.

It is the most luxurious villa in Cloudtopia.

It had 68 villas, their price starts from 60 million.

The most expensive villa was located at the center of the mountainside villa.

Dianne bought the most luxurious mountainside villa for Skylar, for which the price was as high as 130 million.

More than half an hour later, the jeep was parked at the gate of Ocean Hills.

Dianne went to the security room to do some paperwork.

Skylar hopped out of the car and looked at the faintly visible harbor in the dark. He lit a cigarette.

He took a couple of puffs, then crushed it under his foot. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He was no longer alone. He had a daughter now, and he did not think he would be a good father if he had the smell of smoke on him.

Skylar couldn’t help but grinned when he thought of Lola.

“Skylar!”

An angry voice was heard nearby.

Skylar turned around and saw Nicholas walking out of a villa.

It was like meeting an enemy.

“What are you doing here?” Nicholas asked angrily.

Skylar glanced at him. “I live here.”

“What? You live here?”

Nicholas sneered as if he heard the funniest joke in his life “Skylar, you are really a dirty liar. Do you know how much the cheapest villa cost here?”

“How much is it? I genuinely don’t know.”

Skylar said nothing.

“Hahaha, are you revealing too much? I’ve already asked about it, the cheapest villa is 68 million.”

“Even our family can’t fork out this much cash. You’re only a poor soldier. How dare you say that you live here? It’s ridiculous!” Nicholas laughed loudly.

Skylar frowned, but seeing Dianne come out of the security room after filling up the paperwork, he did not bother to deal with him. Then said to him, “I suggest you stay away from me, Nicholas. I’m only giving you one chance, you better appreciate it.”

He then got onto the jeep and drove to the villas.

“Hmph. What a pretentious runt.” Nicholas snorted.

If Skylar lived at Ocean Hills, wouldn’t he be showing off his power to him in the first place?

Leaving right after seeing him was as if he was feeling embarrassed when his lies were exposed.

“He knows how to act!”

Nicholas spat in the direction where Skylar left.

“Sir, please refrain from doing any uncivilized acts at the entrance of Ocean Hills.”

A security guard came up to stop him.

The people who live here were often famous in Cloudtopia.

Nicholas hurriedly handed the security a pack of cigarettes and said with a smile, “Sorry my friend, I was wrong.”

“By the way, which villa did they ask for earlier?”

“Why are you asking about this?”

The security had already accepted the cigarette, but he returned it as soon as he heard his question.”

Nicholas shoved it back into his hands. “That’s my classmate. The family has always been poor. He told me that he lives here earlier.”

“I just want to verify if he was lying, I don’t want anyone to be deceived by him.”

Upon hearing what he said, the security captain put the cigarette in his pocket and said with a smile, “Did you see that beautiful woman driving?”

“She’s the owner of the villa and her name is Dianne. She just bought our most expensive mountainside villa at Ocean Hills today.”

“The mountainside villa? Oh Lord, that woman is rich!” Nicholas exclaimed.

However, the next moment, he fell into his thoughts again.

How could Skylar know such a rich woman and move into the villa together at night?

Could it be possible that… The woman was taking care of Skylar

Was he that woman’s little dog?

If that was the case, then what Skylar said was true.

Tch!

Not only was that woman rich, but she was also stunning.

How could Skylar be such a simp?

Not only did he rob the woman he was interested in, but she was also a young and beautiful rich woman.

Nicholas was filled with jealousy and resentment.

However, his eyes flashed, then muttered to himself. “Skylar, even if you’re able to live at Ocean Hills, You’ll lose your dignity as a man.”

“If Yulia were to know how bad your state is right now, would she regret choosing the wrong person?”

in the villa area. The jeep stopped, and Dianne took Skylar to the mountainside villa.

After a while, Skylar suddenly halted.

He saw an old man practicing boxing under a tree not far away with a young girl standing next to him, also wearing a training suit, observing the old man’s every move.

With Skylar’s knowledge, he could recognize that the set of punches was a type of artillery punch that was popular in a special unit in the 1970s.

This boxing technique was powerful, but it had a fatal flaw. That is, the damage dealt to your enemy was big, but the user would have to take recoil damage.

Therefore, it was replaced by new boxing techniques in the 1980s.

And this old man might have been from the army, and he was not updated on the information about it. So he thought that this set of artillery punches was a magic weapon to control the enemy and kill him, and he has been studying it until now.

Skylar shook his head subconsciously, ready to leave.

His slight movement caught the attention of the old man.

The old man halted his training and frowned at Skylar. Then, he said, “You still have a long way to go, young lad. Don’t let your body go to waste because of greed.”

Skylar was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had to put away his fierce aura after returning to Cloudtopia to fit in.

This old man, who has practiced for most of his life, could feel the aura of anyone.

The old man saw him with Dianne, making the old man misunderstand.

Dianne blushed and was about to argue, but Skylar stopped her.

“Sir, with all due respect, there is something wrong with the boxing technique you practiced just now, which is contrary to the purpose of this move. It is best not to practice it in the future.”
