Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 715

"What exactly is your problem?" huffed Gerald.

"Humph! So Fabian lost, big deal! If you think you're that good then why don't you get on that stage and fight instead?!" yelled Isabelle.

It was crystal clear that she was simply directing all her anger and frustration on Gerald. She even picked her bottle up and tried splashing water all over Gerald!

Thankfully, he was able to avoid getting drenched in time. However, he was now extremely tempted to give her a tight slap across the face for doing that.

Luckily, their classmates stepped in and pulled Isabelle aside to prevent the situation from further escalating.

Maia herself simply glanced at Gerald for a brief moment before returning her gaze to Warren who seemed to be exuding a radiant aura. She knew he wouldn't let anyone down.

At that moment, a judge walked up the stage and approached Warren before saying, "I've honestly never met someone your age to hold that much skill and grace! You truly are the champion of Sunnydale!" The judge himself looked to be in his early forties, and he was most likely a famous figure in the field.

Hearing that, Warren simply smiled subtly as he shook his head.

"Hah, you call him skilled and graceful? You folk don't even know the meaning of those words if you're using them to describe him!" yelled a female voice from the audience, sounding extremely annoyed. The statement made everyone go silent, and all the members of the audience simultaneously began seeking out the source of that voice.

It wasn't just anybody who had made that bold claim. The owner of that voice was none other than Mindy!

While the two girls had initially wanted to leave immediately once the match ended, hearing the judge kissing Warren's as* alongside the scores of loud cheers made Mindy incredibly annoyed. Her intention wasn't really to insult Warren just for Fabian's sake either.

She just couldn't stand all the compliments Warren was getting just for that minor feat. To her, the audiences' and the judge's responses were simply pushing it a bit too much for her taste.

Since everyone was well aware of who the two were, they simply remained silent and observed.

"Alright, that's quite enough!" said Jasmine as she began dragging Mindy by the elbow toward the exit.

"So I'm assuming you've seen true skill then? If you haven't, I really don't know why you're being so bitter!" shouted Maia in response.

While she really wasn't happy hearing someone insult Warren like that, Maia watched her tongue since she had no idea what the two were truly capable of yet.

"But of course! Screw your county champion! You're all novices compared to her!" boasted Mindy as she pointed at Jasmine.

She then whispered to her, "Jasmine, just go fight him already and put him in his place!"

Mindy was clearly only acting this way because she was caught in the heat of the moment.

Jasmine herself didn't like the idea. She didn't really enjoy competing with others. If she had wanted to participate in this event, she would've signed up for it a long time ago. However, she simply hadn't found any worthy opponents to spar as of yet.

Not wanting to escalate the situation any further, Jasmine simply shook her head and began to leave.

"Don't just leave after your friend said that! Come on, fight him if you dare!" said Maia with a smug grin on her face.

"It's alright, Maia. I won't fight her. You should know pretty well that I don't hit women!" replied Warren as he chuckled softly.

Upon hearing that statement, Jasmine stopped dead in her tracks.

"Fine then, let's fight!" she shouted as she looked Warren right in the eye.

She had only agreed because Warren had said that statement.

'Are all men really like this? Do they just expect women to be weaker than them in every aspect?'

She was especially irked by this since it was also the reason why she and Mindy weren't able to partake in any important matters within her family.

This was the last straw for her.

"Hell yeah!" exclaimed Mindy excitedly.

"Oh? Our Queen is going to fight?"

"Holy! What a treat!"

After hearing their conversation, the audience immediately began cheering again.

Warren simply shrugged at their response as though he didn't really care. After all, he knew he wasn't going to need much effort to win against her!
