Chapter 902
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 902
As the old man had implied, Joshua had indeed met up with the Fendersons before a few years ago. In truth, it was the Fendersons who had wanted to hire Joshua as their familyâs personal doctor back then.
Though they had even offered an extremely high salary, in the end, Joshua still refused their offer.
âItâs a pleasure indeed,â replied Joshua with a faint smile on his face.
It was at that moment when Bryson noticed a new face. Or at least half a new face.
A young man was standing obediently next to Joshua as he carried a medical kit in hand. The odd thing about him, however, was the fact that the youth was wearing half a mask. It covered his upper facial features, and it wasnât unlike a masquerade mask.
âCould I know who this might be?â asked Bryson with a smile.
âA-ahâ¦! Ah!â replied the masked youth as he pointed at his own mouth before waving his hands slightly. He then pointed at Joshua before placing his palm near his heart.
Seeing that, Mindy chuckled before saying, âSanderson is Master Jenkinsonâs apprentice, grandpa!
Heâs dumb so he canât talk!â
Since both Mindy and Jasmine had returned to the Fenderson family mansion with Joshua, Mindy had had the opportunity to get to know Sanderson a bit more. That definitely explained her enthusiastic introduction of the youth.
âHow could you say that, Mindy?â replied Jasmine as she looked at the straightforward girl with a sigh.
âItâs fine! After all, Iâm already quite close to him! We got acquainted atop Yorknorth Mountain the day before. Surprisingly, though that was the first time we had met each other, I instantly found him to be quite familiar! Regardless, though he canât really talk, I feel that we got to understand each other a lot throughout our time together, arenât I right, Sanderson?â said Mindy with a smile. The way she said it, it was almost as though she was a close friend of his.
âAh! Ah!â replied Sanderson as he hurriedly nodded.
âHaha! I apologize for the awkwardness, Master Jenkinson⦠Though Mindyâs quite the straightforward and reckless girl, do understand that sheâs been a loving and kind person her entire life!â said Bryson.
âI can certainly see that⦠Speaking of which, my apprentice here suffered from face burns when he was very young⦠Itâs the reason why heâs wearing this mask. However, I hope you understand that heâs quite a diligent worker. I bring him everywhere I go now, and in return, he gets to learn more and more medical skills and knowledge from me.â
âWell then! With you being such a great teacher, Iâm sure your student will be equally as great!â said Bryson as he held on to Master Jenkinsonâs hand while leading him further into the Fenderson family mansion.
âHah! Did you hear that, Jasmine? Grandpa said I was kind!â said Mindy as she playfully pouted.
âSure, letâs go with thatâ¦â replied Jasmine as she shook her head slightly with an annoyed smile on her face.
Seeing this, Sanderson himself rolled his eyes at Mindy though he made sure she couldnât see it.
âKindness my foot! Youâve just never met a person who talks through sign language! Youâve only been nice to me since you want to learn sign language as well!â Sanderson thought to himself.
If it wasnât already evident enough, Sanderson was none other than Gerald.
While his current persona certainly wasnât ideal, it was in fact, the most convenient way for him to successfully infiltrate the Fenderson family mansion.
âAllow me to help you carry that medical kit, Sanderson,â said Jasmine as she nodded toward him.
At that, Gerald immediately began gesturing with his hands again before saying, âAh! Ah!â
Since Jasmine was so much gentler and considerate compared to Mindy, Gerald couldnât help but take a few more glances at her. His attention, however, soon returned to Lord Fenderson.
Gerald had already fully diagnosed his illness earlier from just a glance.
As long as Lord Fenderson took his prescribed medicine and received acupuncture treatment for a few days, it was almost certain that he would make a full recovery. It honestly wasnât that difficult a task for Gerald.
The situation was ideal as well, sinceâas Gerald had previously discussed with Joshuaâhe had indeed planned to stay with the Fendersons for at least a few days.
During that period, Gerald planned to observe the Fendersons while also investigating for any activity from the Schuylers. Or at least thatâs what he had initially planned.
As time went on, Mindy continued to look for Gerald any moment she could, and it was honestly starting to annoy him at this point. It was almost as though she had gone mad!
Thinking that he was finally alone when night came, Gerald stood in the backyard as he thought about the âgreat schemeâ that the Schuylers were plotting.
As for the Moldells, how many people were they actually sending over to help the Schuylers this time around?
Just as the gears in his head were about to grind, he heard a voice saying, âWhat are you doing, Sanderson?â
Gerald was left speechless as he turned to look at Mindy. The girl had her hands behind her back as she skipped all the way toward him.
âAh! Ah! Ah!â replied Gerald as he gestured his hands while pointing at the garden and the surrounding area.
âOh, I see! So you wanted to enjoy the scenery! Haha! Since you probably only focus on studying medicine on Yorknorth Mountain, Iâm sure youâve never seen this grand a garden, have you?â
âAh!â said Gerald with a nod.
âSpeaking of which, since youâre currently free, could you keep me company for a bit?â said Mindy as she held on to his right hand.
Gerald was so stunned by that that he didnât even know how to reply.
