Female Novel
Chapter 1777
Elva Drake, the youngest daughter of the Drake family, was lively and clever. Not only that, but she was classy and beautiful as well. The whole family raised her preciously, as if she were a pearl or a treasure. It was precisely because of this that she had a unique, untamed personality, and pride was embedded deep into her bones. She loved to fight for justice. Matt was notorious for his evil deeds, and in order to protect their daughter, the Drake family had always made sure she avoided contact with other children. They even enrolled her into the city's second highest ranking elite school, so as to keep her safe from Matt.
However, Jarold City was neither small nor big, and the places children from the upper-class society often visited were limited. During an heir's birthday party, Matt and Elva met, and they had some conflict. Matt held a grudge against her, so when the next day came, he got someone to stop the car of the Drake family, took Elva away, and forced himself on her.
After this incident, the Drake family sent her out of the country and cut off all their connections with the Forbes family.
"It appears that Matt is really good at seizing opportunities," I complained helplessly.
"There's no need to bring up irrelevant people to ruin your mood," Hendrix assured. He seemed to be in a hurry as he switched the topic. "Serene will not give up easily. There may be some other conflicts, so you have to be careful."
"Okay," I replied. I knew that he was worried, but I did not want him to tire himself out. In a halfjoking manner, I teased, "You've personally seen Mullen's skills, and the Reid family has arranged so many bodyguards for me as well. No one can hurt me. On the contrary, you're the one in danger. Are you really going to involve yourself in Bate Coin?"
Bate Coin transaction was a gray area, so naturally, I did not give my support. It was just that Hendrix might have other plans, and I had to know what they were. Only then would I be able to devise my way of dealing with Serene.
"What do you think? With our strength, husband and wife, do we need to make this kind of quick money?" Hendrix snickered. His relaxed tone made me feel much more reassured.
It was rare to see him being so modest. I beamed and replied, "I know what to do now."
After a while, I came up with a good idea. "Since Serene is so insistent in obtaining Bate Coin, why don't we beat her at her own game and ruin this for her?"
Hendrix suddenly laughed in a low voice.
"What are you laughing at?" I snapped, clearly confused. It was always good to strike while the iron was hot.
Hendrix smiled and said, "I was thinking that after giving birth to Aurelia and Wynn, you read me like the back of your hand. You intend to obstruct the Drake family, and I have the exact same thought." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
It was a great honor for me to receive Hendrix's affirmation. I feigned my pride and said, "Yes, I'm very smart now, so you have to be careful. If I find any signs of

"I got it. You can stop. I have a meeting later. As for the conflict between the Forbes and the Drake family, khaven't thought about how to deatwith them yet. You can wait and observe for the time being," he assured. Content belongs to

As soon as he said that, the voice of Evan urging that it was time could be heard, and that was the end of the call.
I put down the phone and looked listlessly at the screen that displayed the WhatsApp interface. This man actually bothered to monitor the time of the call and was not willing to delay even for a
second.
"Forget it. I'll let him off for the time being. After we're done settling the score, we'll have plenty of good days waiting for us ahead," I thought to myself. Three hours after Serene's departure, a quarrel broke out outside the law firm.
