Hendric was not telling the truth earlier.
According to Douglas' investigation, after Hendric's company went public, he started seducing various women.

Claiming that Lucille's status created distance between them was utter nonsense! Fortunately, he had been wary of the Lazadar family, which kept him from tricking Lucille into bed. Now, he thought a simple apology could make him look noble? He was asking for trouble! Douglas took a deep breath and then headed to the changing room to get dressed.
In the lounge room, Tatiana gently patted Lucille's back, soothing her with a soft voice, "There, there. Stop crying. See, your brother dotes on you so much. You shouldn't have doubted him." Lucille sobbed. "I yelled at him earlier and called him by his full name. He must be so disappointed in me." Tatiana chuckled. "Knowing Douglas, he won't take it to heart. Besides, you're his most beloved sister!" Douglas was infamous in Antaria for being a doting brother.
Theo suddenly grinned and asked, "Lucille, what do you think of Wilcox?" Having been married for over six months, with Olivia now expecting their child, Theo thought it was tto worry about Wilcox's marital status.
"I'm not interested!" Lucille responded bluntly.
Wilcox's mouth twitched. "I already have a girlfriend!" Theo asked curiously, "Who? Could it be your secretary, Carlie?" Wilcox took a deep breath and confirmed, "Yes, it's her." Theo gave a thumbs-up. "Impressive, my brother. You managed to win over someone Grandpa had placed to keep an eye on you!" Wilcox smirked. "With my talents and wealth, is there any woman I can't win over?" A few jokes lightened the mood significantly. Tatiana decided to take Lucille to the Springside Hotel, planning to comfort her thoroughly that night.

"Nash, something happened to Douglas..." "What?" Nash frowned. "What happened?" Tatiana said anxiously, "Douglas tried to call off his sister's engagement, and the Falstaffs went to the Lazadars' place early this morning. Douglas was beaten up!" Nash's eyes darkened. "I'll be there right away!" Although his interactions with Douglas were limited, they had shared a meal and drinks before. Douglas had always been courteous.
Besides, Lucille was Tatiana's close friend. With her family in trouble, Nash could not just sit idly by.
At that moment, at the Lazadar family's residence, eight Mystique Loyalty Realm experts from Austenford's Falstaff family were present.
They appeared to be in their 40s and wore matching uniforms that clearly indicated their sect affiliation.
Douglas lay on the ground, his arms and legs twisted at unnatural angles.
The Lazadar family members were trembling, unable to meet the Falstaffs' gaze.
Georgie's father, Grisham Falstaff, elsat on a grand chair, his cold eyes sweeping over the Lazadar family. He said, Karshly, "Without Anton Varhess, Antaria is nothing compared to Austenford. Expert array family, you say? You're worthless!"
