Hearing that, Mindy immediately left snazzynovel.com room to notify snazzynovel.com teachers. However, snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com sat on snazzynovel.com bed.
It didn’t take long before Jasmine realized that Mindy looked as though snazzynovel.com still had more to say.
“What’s wrong?” enquired Jasmine.
Hearing that, Mindy then skipped over to Jasmine’s side before cheekily asking, “Say Jasmine, what do you think they talk about in that mysterious annual family meeting that only our family’s males can attend?”
“How should I know?” replied Jasmine as snazzynovel.com shook snazzynovel.com head before realizing something.
“…What are you scheming of, Mindy?” asked Jasmine as snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com sighed.
Jasmine’s expression only continued darkening the more snazzynovel.com heard Mindy’s words. The things Mindy said felt like thorny vines entangling snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com efforts, snazzynovel.com grandfather never once took any notice of snazzynovel.com talents nor did snazzynovel.com acknowledge any of snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com head.
‘…No, she’s right. I absolutely refuse to continue living like this!’
Jasmine was going to rebel this time.
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 snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com had to say, the old patriarch immediately began tearing up before saying, “…Yes. If snazzynovel.com was still alive, the Fendersons wouldn’t be as passive as they are today! It’s such a shame that snazzynovel.com was murdered… God truly guided an angel back into his arms that day!”
Upon saying that, a tear trickled down his wrinkled cheeks.
