Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 692
The voice had come from a young man who was part of a group consisting of similarly aged people. All five of them
bore equally cold and murderous gazes as they stood within the sea of people.
“Why are all of you still standing there? Go after him!” yelled one of the young men who seemed to be the group’s
leader.
However, before they even could make their next move, the group of five realized that they had already been
surrounded! A fight soon broke out and chaos ensued, preventing them from continuing with their mission.
“F*ck off!” roared the leader angrily as he shoved his unknown assailants aside, desperately trying to escape the
havoc.
By the time he was finally able to free himself, Gerald was nowhere to be seen.
Enraged, the group’s leader then began stomping his foot against the tar road to release his frustration.
As that was happening, within a manor well-hidden from the public view, a group of teenagers approached a butler
before one of them asked, “Where’s the young mistress?”
“She’s at the dojo,” replied the butler.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter having their question answered, the group of twelve then began making their way there.
Meanwhile, Jasmine was busy sparring others in the dojo. Her hair had been tied up in a ponytail and she sported a
crisp, white, martial arts robe.
Her opponents were seven young men who usually ran missions together with the five others who had been sent to
chase after Gerald. Though she was clearly outnumbered, Jasmine was still the one doing most of the beating up.
Mindy was there as well, though she was simply munching away on potato chips while occasionally cheering
Jasmine on as she continued punching the wind out of her opponents.
“You’re getting increasingly better at this, young mistress! Judging by how quickly your progress is coming along,
soon, I don’t think that I’ll even have anything more to teach you!” said her master who had been observing her
spar from the very beginning.
As soon as the master’s sentence ended, the group of twelve from earlier arrived at the dojo. Upon seeing Jasmine,
all twelve of them bowed in unison.
All of the youngsters in that dozen were world-renown champions in Taekwondo and Karate. They were all
Jasmine’s masters as well.
“Hah, you’re being too humble… As for the seven of you, go ahead and have a rest first!”
“You’re pretty powerful, aren’t you? Despite being severely outnumbered, you still managed to come out on top! I
wish I was as strong as you!” exclaimed Mindy.
“Well, I did try to get you to learn with me… As usual, however, you were too lazy to even try in the first place!”
replied Jasmine with a wry smile.
“Humph! But of course I’m not going to train like you! After all, I think I’m more suited to being a quiet and innocent
little girl. Plus, it’s not like I have your level of stamina! Still, it’s rather hilarious how you look just like a defenseless
damsel in distress when those men from before could barely lay a finger on you! It reminds me of how you
pulverized the lower halves of those students back then!” said Mindy between giggles.
“Hey, they asked for it! That’s enough, I don’t want to talk about that anymore!”
As Mindy continued smiling, she turned to look at the five young men who had just entered the dojo and were now
standing at the side of the ring.
“What’s the matter?” she asked.
“Young mistress! We’ve failed our mission!” announced the group’s leader.
“Failed? Well I can’t say that I’m surprised! Just how many missions have the twelve of you even managed to
complete up till this point?” replied Jasmine as she looked at the seven others whom she had sparred against
earlier.
“We have a solid reason as to why we failed this time! While we were going after him, a group of men attacked us!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy the time we finally managed to escape the chaos, the target had already left in a taxi!” explained the young
man in a rather desperate voice.
“Hahaha… It’s alright. Honestly, I was hoping that all of you would fail anyway. Also Jasmine? I really think you’re
overthinking this. I’m telling you, that guy was simply Marven’s friend. They probably just found you incredibly
attractive so I see no reason for you to go full Sherlock on him. Besides, I want to talk to Marven too!”
“Don’t you even dare or I’m telling grandpa that you keep talking with random outsiders! You’ll be grounded for
sure once that happens!” yelled Jasmine angrily.
“Fine, fine, I was just joking, alright?” responded Mindy.
“Regardless, for now, you guys should just let the matter rest. There’s no need to make a commotion out of this
yet!” replied Jasmine.
“Understood, young mistress!”
Pursing her lips, Mindy then walked over to the trashcan to dispose of her half-finished bag of potato chips.
Noticing this, Jasmine simply shook her head as she approached the sulking girl.
“What’s the matter? Are you honestly angry just because I yelled at you?”
“No I’m not… I’m just slightly frustrated! Why can’t I be like everyone else? This cr*p has been going on since we
were children! Just why?!” said Mindy as tears began welling up in her eyes.
When she heard Mindy’s words, Jasmine’s expression immediately darkened as she was reminded of their
childhood.
