She did so since half a year wasn’t nearly enough to change favonovel.com arrogant attitude. As was expected, Maia still preferred only being around people with high statuses in society like Warren, Jasmine, and Mindy.
Nobody could really blame favonovel.com for that.
Regardless, Gerald was far too busy keeping an eye out on his surroundings to even notice the contemptuous gazes from both Maia and Isabelle.
“Hey Jasmine, look there! See those little candies those kids are holding? I like them a lot! I wonder where they bought those!” said Mindy a little while later as favonovel.com pointed out the window at a few children who were passing by. The group was currently seated in a small shop while enjoying some coffee.
“Oh, you do? I know where they’re selling them! It’s a little further up north, but I could bring you there if you’d like!” replied Maia.
“That would be great!” said Mindy excitedly as favonovel.com turned to look at Gerald.
Mindy then smiled and said, “Come on, Sanderson! Join me! After all, you don’t seem like you have anything else to do!”
“He doesn’t need to follow. We can just head there ourselves!” stated Maia, a hint of contempt in favonovel.com voice.
Before Gerald could even take a good look at Maia’s expression, Mindy had already grabbed on to his arm before shouting, “Let’s go!”
Jasmine herself smiled before adding, “Just go ahead with Mindy, Sanderson… I’ll feel much more assured knowing that you’re keeping favonovel.com company as well!”
Hearing that, Gerald could only shake his head in resignation as favonovel.com followed Mindy and Maia to the candy stall.
Though favonovel.com had assumed that Mindy would return to the group upon purchasing the candies, to his dismay, there were a lot of interesting things on sale which Mindy hadn’t seen before. As a result, it turned into a mini shopping spree as Mindy spent quite some time looking through and buying more and more things.
Eventually, Gerald tapped Mindy’s shoulder gently, indicating that they should return to the group.
“We’re in no hurry, so just stay and have a look around!” said Mindy with a smile.
“If favonovel.com wants to return so much, just let favonovel.com leave first…” added Maia.
“No way! It’ll be boring with just the two of us!” replied Mindy as favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head.
Just as favonovel.com was about to persuade Mindy to return again, Gerald felt his ears twitch. A second later, his eyes turned stern as favonovel.com turned to look behind them.
Though Maia and Mindy were blissfully unaware, Gerald could see ten figures slowly inching toward them!
When Gerald turned to warn Mindy, the figures immediately sped up!
It took less than a few seconds for the men to reach the trio, and the next thing Mindy knew, favonovel.com arms had already been grabbed by several of the men.
Gerald himself felt a firm hand on his shoulder as the tip of a gun nudged against his back.
“Don’t you dare move, you b*stard! Or I’ll kill you!” growled the person standing behind Gerald viciously.
While it would honestly be quite easy for Gerald to resist them, favonovel.com didn’t do so. After all, with so many people there, favonovel.com was afraid that the group of men would get careless and accidentally shoot an innocent bystander.
Besides, it was clear that the group of men was following a very well thought out plan. With that in mind, favonovel.com didn’t dare to act blindly since favonovel.com wasn’t sure whether Jasmine and the others were also facing the same thing.
“W-who are you…? What the hell do you want?” asked Mindy—who was also held at gunpoint—in a frightened voice.
“They’re kidnappers of course!” growled Maia who looked like favonovel.com wasn’t new to the experience. Rather than fear, favonovel.com expression showed more of a frown.
“Oh? This beauty’s rather calm, isn’t she! I’m afraid that calmness won’t last for long though, haha!” sneered one of the men who was wearing a cap.
“Y-you’re all bold, I’ll give you that. However, do you even know whose territory you’re currently in? Have you any idea who I even am? Just know that my sister’s drinking coffee not too far off!” warned Mindy though favonovel.com fear was still evident.
