Chapter 10

The news of Hendrick suffering from a concussion after getting hit by Yvette caused a commotion within the Luxford family.

Ruby’s heart ached as she looked at her son, the pity in her eyes turning into hatred as soon as she noticed Yvette walking

over.

“What happened?”

Upon seeing her. Lauren immediately shielded her daughter-in-law behind her back and pulled her to the side to question her softly.

Ever since Joshua was injured, Hendrick had increasingly taken over Luxford Group within half a year. Although William had been protecting her, Lauren knew that if her son remained unconscious for the rest of his life, they would not live at good life in the future.

Even if William had left them with many assets, it would all be useless, not to mention Yosef’s family was not that gracious.

Yvette pursed her lips before replying, “I admit I hit him.”

“Everyone heard that, right? She has already admitted to it, so send her to the police station, and imprison her immediately.

This woman’s a lun atic!”

Upon hearing her words, he smiled smugly. If it were not for the dizziness he was experiencing. Hendrick would have leaped with joy.

However, he stopped as soon as he noticed William’s cold stare. “She was the one who hit me, Grandpa, he whined.

“Look at the damage Yvette did, Dad. You can’t be biased. Moreover, the future of the Luxford family depends on Hendrick, so what are we supposed to do if his brain is damaged?”

Hendrick had a thick bandage wrapped around his head, and upon hearing Ruby’s words, he fainted on the couch, looking much weaker than the comatose Joshua upstairs.

William scoffed and asked, Tm still alive, so why should the Luxford family depend on him?”

Ruby’s face instantly paled. Knowing that she liad said something wrong, she hurriedly waved her hands. “That’s not what I meant, Dad. Of course, we hope that you’ll live a long life. However, Joshua is already lying motionless in bed. You can’t possibly wish the same for Hendrick, right?”

Lauren’s face also darkened after hearing the harsh words. She subconsciously tightened her grip on Yvette’s hand.

“Yvette didn’t do it on purpose, Dad.”

if Before she could defend Yvette further, the latter quickly interrupted, “I did it on purpose, I would’ve been more ruthles he wasn’t Joshua’s cousin.”

Everyone gasped in shock, and even Hendrick flinched at her words, feeling a chill creeping up his spine on the realization that she had taken it easy on hih.

Ruby was utterly shocked. “Isn’t she a meek noble lady from an affluent family? She’s undoubtedly a shrew!” she thought.

“You must seek justice for Hendrick, Dad. This family needs him!”

Now that Joshua was in a coma, the Luxford family had no successor, so Hendrick was their only hope.

Hence, Ruby began to cry miserably. Hendrick sat up with his back straiglu. “This time, I must make Yvette suffer to make it easier for me to subdue her in the future, he thought

His head injury did not stop him from having sexual imagination.

Despite that, Yvette straightened her back without any fear. “I think that the Luxford family will fall into ruins if such at person becomes the heir!” she exclaimed.

“What nonsense are you spouting?”

Ruby nearly leaped up from the couch. If it were not for Lauren holding her back, she would have clawed the girl’s face.

“Speak no more.” Lauren tugged at Yvette, but it did not stop the latter from retorting. “Hendrick said when Grandpa dies, the Luxford family will be his, and even Mom has to give in to him. He told me to listen to him from now onward…”

Yvette did not need to finish her words, and she had already seen the pale faces of Hendrick and his mother.

She would not show mercy when snitching on anyone who bullied her.
