Chapter 762 There Will Always Be a Place for You

Thus, Waylen received several messages on his phone after coming out of the laboratory. He waspuzzled as among them were seven or eight autographed photos of Daphne, as well as someexclusive merchandise that only the studio would have. He couldn't help but wonder what those werefor.

With that, he scrolled up and saw Leanna's message that read, 'Charlotte told me that you are a fan ofDaphne, so I sent these to you.' As he scrolled up further, he came across a message about Zoe'sillness. He looked through it and was about to make a phone call to her, but before dialing her number,he hesitated and typed a message instead. 'Has your friend ever had a miscarriage?'

After a while, Leanna replied, 'Yes.'

With that, Waylen replied, 'Got it. I'll be busy these days. Just send it over together with your medicinein a couple of days.'

'Thank you.' Leanna replied and sent him another message that read, 'There's another favor I'd like toask of you…' To which Waylen replied with a '?'

'My friend's mother is also feeling unwell…' Leanna replied

Waylen was speechless and realized that was the reason why Leanna sent him the autographedphotos of Daphne. But unlike Charlotte, he wasn't interested in those pictures.

Leanna then sent a text that read, 'Or perhaps you can let me know how you charge for it? I cantransfer it to you. I feel bad for troubling you like this.'

Upon reading her reply, Waylen replied, 'It's fine. It's tacky to talk about that.'

He then added, 'I eat at Naomi's place every day, and she hasn't asked me for money. Send me theinformation about your friend's mother's condition. I'll take a look.'

Although Waylen said so, Leanna still felt bad and sent him a lot of local specialties from Highside.

On the other hand, when Waylen got downstairs, he said to Naomi, "Naomi, I need to make a trip to theWoodley Residence. Are you coming along?"

Naomi, who was holding the baby, shook her head. "I won't be going." Seeing that she was caring forthe child, Waylen didn't say much and left with the car keys.

At the same time, in the ancestral hall of the Woodley Family, Philip stood at the front, and after prayingfor Kian, he turned to Charlotte and said, "Charlotte, come here." Hearing that, Charlotte obedientlywalked over and received a pat on the head from Charles.

Philip leaned on his cane and said, "Charlotte, Kian had always cherished you. It was he who originallyarranged the marriage engagement with Lachlan. Now that the engagement is dissolved, you shouldbow and apologize to him for failing his good intentions."

Following that, Charlotte put her hands together and bowed respectfully three times. She expressedgratitude to the departed soul of Kian silently in her heart. She hoped that in the future, she would meetsomeone she really liked—someone who would make her happy just by seeing him. After bowing, shelightly touched Kian's photo.

Just then, Philip looked toward the outside of the ancestral hall and announced, "Lachlan has arrived."Hearing that, Lachlan replied with a faint voice. With that, Philip said, "Since you're here, you shouldoffer some prayers as well. The Woodley Family has recently gone through so much, and the ancestralhall was almost destroyed. The spirits here have inevitably been disturbed." Although Joseph set fire tothe ancestral hall, fortunately, the fire was promptly controlled, and the impact on the ancestral hall wasminimal. Furthermore, the damaged areas had already been renovated.

Lachlan then approached the altar, looked mellowly at the altar, and proceeded to close his eyes.

Throughout the whole process, Charlotte stood by her father's side while quietly watching Lachlan. Shehad a deep-rooted fear of Lachlan. Although she had gradually gotten used to his presence during theirtime together, Joseph's words had elevated her fear of him to another level.

However, this time, she wasn't afraid of what he would do to her, but she was afraid that he might harmher grandfather and father. It was a peculiar feeling. After Lachlan offered the incense, Philip spoke upas soon as he turned around. "I know you are against this arranged marriage with Charlotte. It's goodthat it's dissolved now, so you won't be held back by her." Hearing that, Lachlan glanced at Charlotte,who immediately lowered her head and hugged Charles' arm.

He said, "Charlotte is still a young girl. This marriage was never fair to her from the beginning." Bysaying this, he had shifted the responsibility onto himself and Kian, which prevented Philip from beingembarrassed.

As Philip listened to him speak, his initially stern expression softened a bit, and he politely said,"Charlotte was the one who didn't appreciate your grandfather's good intentions."

"Be rest assured that no matter what happens within the Woodley Family, there will always be a placefor you." Lachlan looked at him without beating around the bush. After speaking, Lachlan noddedslightly in acknowledgment and then left directly. Following that, Philip's expression turned gloomy, andhe let out a silent sigh.

Noticing that, Charlotte stepped forward and supported him before asking, "Grandpa, what did hemean by what he just said?"

"He meant that no matter how he shakes up the Woodley Family, as long as I am here, he won't harmour family," Philip replied.

"Isn't that a good thing, Grandpa? Why..." Charlotte paused and asked.

Upon hearing that, Charles interjected, "But once your grandpa is no longer here, his promise won'thold any weight."

"Grandpa will live a long life! He'll live to be 100, so why worry about those things?" Charlotte affirmed.

Only then did Philip smile and pat Charlotte's hand. "Girl, I'm already ninety-eight years old this year.Does it mean that I only have two more years to leave?"

Hearing that, Charlotte realized her mistake and blurted, "I'll take it back, I'll take it back! Grandpa willlive to be 200!"

"Alright, alright. Like how you said, Grandpa will live to be 200." Philip chuckled. Charles, who wasstanding next to them, couldn't help but shake his head and smile as he looked at her before saying,"Let's go."

As soon as Lachlan stepped out of the ancestral hall, Waylen approached him. "I saw Grandpa and theothers inside. Are you guys discussing your marriage with Charlotte?" Hearing that, Lachlan gave hima disdainful glance, and Waylen immediately put on a serious demeanor before saying, "Alright, alright,I won't ask."

"How's the treatment going?" Lachlan asked calmly.

"At this stage, it's not having a significant effect anymore. I can only say that it's much better thanbefore," Waylen paused and continued, "But..."

"But what?"

"I've spoken to Leanna and told her that umbilical cord blood might be a solution. I've prescribed somemedicine for her, and she's undergoing treatment," Waylen said.

"I'm not Aidan, so why are you telling me all this?" Lachlan looked at him and asked.

"That's because Leanna didn't let me tell Aidan. But I felt suffocated, and you know, I don't like takingresponsibility. Between you and Aidan, there has to be someone to take the blame for me," Waylenreplied.

Lachlan was speechless after hearing that. "Go back if there's nothing else!" he snapped.
