Chapter 919
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 919
And something important it was. Knowing full well that the Fenderson family had almost been wiped out
due to his carelessness, Bryson was going to take responsibility for the incident no matter what.
After things calmed down a bit, Bryson thought about how they were nearly eliminated by a vassal
family. If all that could happen under his rule, then he admitted that he was getting old and unreliable.
The fact that he couldn’t defend himself without help was further proof that it was finally time for
change.
It exined why the mood of the Fenderson family meeting this time was so different. Everyone had
their heads lowered as they waited for Bryson to speak.
Coughing to break the silence and get everyone’s attention, Bryson cleared his throat before saying,
“I… have some very important news to announce today… This announcement will also be the veryst
decision that I’ll make as the head of this family!”
Hearing that, everyone lifted their heads as they looked at the old man.

“Listen closely, for the next head of the Fendersons will be Jasmine! I’m far too old now, and though
Second and Third are both equally mature and reliable, I’m afraid they’re far toocent. They’re
both more suited to be supporters than leaders, not that there’s anything wrong with that. Regardless,
after careful consideration, I truly believe that Jasmine will be the one who will help develop and
recover our family’s glory!” announced Bryson.
As soon as his deration ended, the entire meeting hall was abuzz with people discussing their
opinions aloud. Jasmine herself hadn’t expected the meeting to be about her.
Standing up, she then said, “While I’m honored to have been selected, I simply can’t take the position
of head, grandpa! I’m still far too young and there’s still a lot for me to learn. I’m certain that I won’t be
able to handle the position of leader yet. What more, up till this point, there haven’t been any female
leaders in the Fenderson family!” replied Jasmine who honestly felt she wasn’t ready for such
responsibility.
In response, Bryson simply raised a single hand, prompting everyone to go silent.
“There’s no need to discuss this any further. My decision is final. While I’m sure that you’re doubtful
about the whole thing, I believe in you, Jasmine. I believe that even if you were to marry the person you
love, you’ll still end up bing an excellent family head. As for the rest of you, you should already
know by now that I’d never appoint someone to be leader without a valid reason! Speaking of being a
leader, I’ll be granting you your first long-term task now, Jasmine! I see a lot of potential among those
from your uncles’ third and fourth generations. From today onward, you’re responsible for training up
the third and fourth generations to be better leaders!” concluded Bryson.
Upon hearing that, everyone started calming down again.
They were honestly most worried about the fact that the Fenderson would have to change their family
surname once Jasmine got married to another person and bore a child. However, with Bryson sounding
so sure with his final decision, the crowd was swept with a new determination.
“I… I fully support the decision to let Miss Jasmine be the head of the Fendersons!” shouted one of the
family members.
“As do I!”
“You’ve definitely earned it!”
Bryson found himself smiling as he watched both his own family and the vassal families cheering on for
Jasmine.
“There, you heard the people, Jasmine. With them supporting you, there really isn’t a reason for you to
turn down the position anymore. With that, I dere that from today onward, you, Jasmine Fenderson,
will be the new head of our family!” said Bryson aloud.
Once the meeting ended, Bryson made his way back to his room, his butler supporting him as
everyone else went over to congratte Jasmine.
As Jasmine thanked all of them rather reluctantly, she couldn’t help but notice something at thest
minute. Where was Mindy?
The usually noisy girl hadn’t been seen throughout the entire meeting… Once the crowd gave her
some space, Jasmine walked over to Mindy’s butler before asking, “Have you seen Mindy?”
She was at least certain that Mindy had been with her when both of them returned to the Fenderson
family mansion earlier.
“Oh, Miss Mindy drove off before the meeting started! She said she was going to look for someone!”
“What? Look for someone?” repeated Jasmine, stunned.
It took her a second, but she finally realized what Mindy’s goal was. As the realization set within her,
she mumbled, “Could you have gone out searching for Sanderson without me…?”
While Jasmine herself treated Sanderson like a good friend, she knew how much more Mindy
treasured him. What more, he was now essentially missing because of their family’s issues!
Shaking her head, Jasmine said, “Get the car ready. It’s currently still too dangerous for her to be
wandering outside alone!”
“Right away, Miss Jasmine!”
