Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 721
“Did you hear that?”
The patriarch asked the moment she entered the study.
Jasmine nodded firmly.
If the fact that the younger generation of their family was permanently grounded was enough to make Jasmine
gloomy and depressed every day, then she would forever be grieving over the incident which involved her parents.
At least when she was grounded, she could throw a tantrum or complain about it. But ever since she was young, no
one had ever told her anything about her own parents. She’d only receive beatings when she asked about them.
“Do you hate me for hiding it from you for so many years?”
The patriarch asked.
“No, I don’t hate you. I understand that you hid it from me for my sake!”
Jasmine said.
“Jasmine, I saw your performance over the past few years. Frankly speaking, I’m very proud to have a
granddaughter like you. Your parents in heaven should be very proud of you too.”
The patriarch patted Jasmine’s shoulders lightly.
“Then grandpa, who is the enemy of our Fenderseon family all this while? And were they responsible for what

Jasmine asked.
The patriarch took a deep breath. He then looked toward a corner in the study and nodded slightly.
“I know that it’s impossible to hide these things from you. You’ve become very outstanding, and you have great
capabilities. I guess I can tell you some of the things now.”
The patriarch paused for a short while before he said, “That’s right. Our Fenderson family has always had a strong
enemy, and that’s the Crawford family!”
“The Crawford family? Why haven’t I heard of this before?”
Jasmine sounded stunned.
“Of course, that family doesn’t have to lie low like us. There are only a handful of families who are able to achieve
their level of superiority and influence after all! Besides, I’ve kept you within our gates for over 20 years now. How
much of the outside world have you actually seen?”
The patriarch asked.
“But why? Why does the Crawford family treat us like this?”
Jasmine was filled with resentment.
“It’s a long story. To put it briefly, our feud started from my generation, and it carried over to your parents’
generation. You absolutely must remember this. Always, always be wary of people from the Crawford family! Are
we clear?”
The patriarch said pitifully.
“Alright, grandpa!”
“Besides, Jasmine, since you’ve known some of the things regarding our family, I’m afraid that I’m no longer able to
hide it from you even though I intended to originally. Currently, you’ve seen the inner workings of our family. I’ve
even made the necessary preparations. From now on, you’re the heir of all your father’s properties and assets.
Besides, you’re the only female in our family who can inherit the family assets other than her.”
The patriarch said.
Jasmine appeared excited. Besides, she knew who that other lady was.
Having said that, the patriarch looked dull and gloomy.
“I acted too rashly that year. Your aunt is still hiding from me, unwilling to even see my face. Xara is just a silly child.
She’s so stubborn. Although I sounded quite cruel, the person I worry and care about the most is still your aunt!”
The patriarch burst into tears.
“Jasmine, promise me one thing.”
“Grandpa, I understand it. I’ll certainly find where my aunt is.”
Jasmine said.
That incident happened when she was still very young.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe old butler of their family once told Jasmine about that.
There was once a very exceptional lady in the Fenderson family, and she was Jasmine’s aunt—Xara Fenderson.
But at one point, she violated the rules of the family, so she was excommunicated from the family by Jasmine’s
grandfather.
Actually, her grandfather had always been looking for her aunt during all these years. But he could not discover her
whereabouts no matter how many times he tried.
It was the cause of her grandfather’s excruciating pain.
Now, Jasmine was going to inherit her father’s property. Hence, she would also take up the responsibility of tracking
down her aunt.
At the same time, she wanted very much to meet her aunt, who was still admired deeply by the members of the
Fenderson family. Moreover, the others always said that she resembled her aunt. She was the young lady of the
family at that moment. She resembled her aunt in terms of both capability as well as physical appearance.
‘What kind of a woman was she?
‘Who did she fall in love with? How could my grandpa be so cruel and kick her out of the family?’
At last, her grandfather took a photograph out and handed it to Jasmine. The woman in the photograph was indeed
very beautiful. Her look was breathtaking to say the least.
That woman was her aunt—Xara Fenderson.
