Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 918 Warren had made that statement as he stood up. Jasmine herself frowned as she scanned through thestoreroom.

Her gaze stopped when she saw a few joss sticks placed near a corner of the room.

“Those must’ve been the reason why we were so sleepy!” said Jasmine as she pointed at herdiscovery.

“So that’s why! Still, who were those people…? Why didn’t they just tell us who they were after savingus?” replied Maia.

Before anyone could even reply, one of the group’s members—who had already been exploring theplace—shouted, “Hey, come over here, I think they left something for us!”

Hearing that, everyone encircled the box with a note on it.

The note itself wrote, ‘To: Maia.’

“Guess we know who gets to open it,” said yet another member of the team.

Maia herself was now feeling giddy with excitement. As she thought about what could be inside, shecaught a glimpse of Warren bearing an extremely ugly expression on his face.

Noticing that she was looking at him, Warren then said with a hint of anger in his voice, “Go on andopen it already! If you don’t I will!”

“Hey, this is clearly for me! Only I get to open it!” retorted Maia in an annoyed tone.

“Well then open it! Carefully, though! We have no idea what’s in it!” grumbled Warren as he looked atMaia, almost as though he wanted to pick a fight.

In all honesty, he was worried that if Maia truly liked the contents of that box, she would end up fallingfor somebody else.

Before an argument could take place, Jasmine shouted in a hushed tone, “Quit it! Can’t you hear that?Someone’s coming over!”

Upon saying that, she instantly headed to the storeroom’s main door with soundless steps.

The tension rose as everyone prepared themselves to face whatever came next. After all, the peopleoutside could very well be the Schuylers.

After a brief moment of silence, however, a sweet female voice could be heard saying, “Jasmine?Maia? Are you in there…?”

Jasmine recognized that voice anywhere.

“Mindy? Yes! We’re here!”

As everyone heard that, the group’s tension slowly eased again.

Opening the storeroom’s door, Jasmine saw that Mindy had brought along two Fenderson bodyguardswith her.

“Jasmine! I’m so relieved that the rest of you are fine!” cried out Mindy.

After the hellish night they had to experience the night before, being able to reunite with each other wasdefinitely the cure that they very much needed and deserved.

“It’s great that you’re fine, Miss Fenderson! You have no idea how worried Lord Fenderson’s been thisentire time!” said one of the two bodyguards who were still standing behind Mindy.

“Worry not, I’m unscathed. Honestly, I’m even more surprised that you made it out already. Dideveryone else manage to escape? Weren’t there any guards impeding you from leaving?” askedJasmine curiously.

Upon hearing her questions, Mindy began sobbing as she said, “We… We were rescued bySanderson! He saved us all!”

“What? Sanderson? Actually, hold on, why are you crying? Did something happen to him?” askedJasmine. Though she was initially shocked when she heard that, worry soon overtook that feeling whenshe saw Mindy’s tears.novelbin

“I… I don’t know… I think he’s still in trouble… After all, once all of us were rescued, we found thatStella was missing! As a result, he ran back into the Schuyler family mansion and that was the last Isaw him…” replied Jasmine, her sheer sadness reflected in her eyes.

“Calm yourself, Mindy… Sanderson will have luck on his side, I’m sure of it. Besides, don’t start cryingwhen we haven’t even launched a search party for him! What would he think of that?” said Jasminewith a comforting smile on her face.

“…You’re right… Sanderson’s lived a tough life, even from when he was a child… I’m sure he’s anequally tough person. We’ll definitely find him safe and sound!” declared Mindy with a resolute nod.

While Jasmine was glad that Mindy was feeling positive again, she was curious as to where all thatresolution came from. It was almost as though Mindy knew for sure that Sanderson would definitely befine. However, Jasmine refrained from asking her anything about it for now. After all, their grandfather’ssafety was still her priority.

“What about grandpa? Is he safe? Did the Schuylers do anything to him? Also, how did you even knowwhere to find us?”

“Hah! The Schuylers? Don’t even talk about them! They must’ve personally offended a god orsomething! After all, not only was their entire mansion razed to the ground, all of them have officiallybeen declared missing! To that, I say they got what they f*cking deserved!” grunted the other guardbehind Mindy.

“…Wait, what? The Schuylers are… gone?”

“Yeah! There weren’t even any bodies to speak of! Everyone from that family simply vanished into thinair!” replied Mindy as she wiped her tears away.

“Regardless, we should head back first, Miss Fenderson. Lord Fenderson will be hosting a familymeeting soon, and it seems that he wants to announce something important!”
