Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 719
Hearing that, Mindy immediately left her room to notify her teachers. However, she returned not too long after.
“None of the teachers are around, Jasmine. The rest of the adults in the mansion aren’t present either. They’re
having their meeting in the meeting room! Have you forgotten? Today’s the day they host their annual big
meeting!” explained Mindy.
“Ah, I just remembered. No matter then, I’ll just talk to them tomorrow,” replied Jasmine with a nod as she sat on
her bed.
It didn’t take long before Jasmine realized that Mindy looked as though she still had more to say.
“What’s wrong?” enquired Jasmine.

they talk about in that mysterious annual family meeting that only our family’s males can attend?”
“How should I know?” replied Jasmine as she shook her head before realizing something.
“…What are you scheming of, Mindy?” asked Jasmine as she looked Mindy in the eye.
“Ehehe… You know very well what I’m thinking about. Come on, they never allow us to look into it! Not only do we
not know why we have to remain home most of the time, we barely know anything about our own family! At the
rate you’ve been training all these years, I’d say you’re definitely already stronger and much more talented than
most of the men in this family! Yet we’re still being left clueless about the bigger picture!” said Mindy as she sighed.
Jasmine’s expression only continued darkening the more she heard Mindy’s words. The things Mindy said felt like
thorny vines entangling her heart.
‘…Well, it is true that I’ve worked hard all these years just to prove that I’m better than those men. To prove that I
could handle any of our family’s business as well as they could…’
Yet even after all her efforts, her grandfather never once took any notice of her talents nor did he acknowledge any
of her hard work.
“Why don’t we eavesdrop? I know you want to know what’s really going on in the family as much as I do,”
whispered Mindy.
While Jasmine would definitely have instantly refused to do so in the past out of fear of angering her grandfather,
after hearing Mindy’s persuasion this time, Jasmine was feeling a little hesitant for the first time in a long while.
‘If this goes on, does that mean that they’ll continue hiding all this from me and Mindy forever? Do I really want to
continue living so obliviously?’
After a brief moment, Jasmine shook her head.
‘…No, she’s right. I absolutely refuse to continue living like this!’

She then looked at Mindy and the two nodded to each other before sneakily making their way to the meeting room.
It seemed that they were just in time to catch the start of the meeting.
“Second, Third, how are the preparations? To successfully deal with something this big, the weapon itself is an
extremely important factor!” said an old man with a walking stick who sat on the seat of honor as he looked at two
young men. He was the family’s patriarch.
“The preparations are almost complete, father. However, even with both of us combined, we still couldn’t complete
the hardest mission assigned to us. If only big brother was still alive, we might’ve…”
Jasmine, who had already been eavesdropping, began listening even more intently at this point.
After hearing what he had to say, the old patriarch immediately began tearing up before saying, “…Yes. If he was
still alive, the Fendersons wouldn’t be as passive as they are today! It’s such a shame that he was murdered… God
truly guided an angel back into his arms that day!”
Upon saying that, a tear trickled down his wrinkled cheeks.
