Chapter 753 At Least He Wouldn’t Wipe Us Out

After saying goodbye to Leanna and going their separate ways, Charlotte seemed to be in low spirits
when she arrived home. There was no trace of the excitement she displayed when she went out earlier
that day.

Charles was reading a book. When he looked up and glanced at her, he said calmly, “You almost
bought everything in the mall, so why do you look so sad now?”

Charlotte sat down next to him, plopping onto the armrest of the couch. She still looked downcast.

Charles said, “Come on, I let you go out today, didn’t I? Why do you look so upset? Did someone bully
you?”

Sometime later, Charlotte finally opened her mouth sluggishly. “No.”

For the past two weeks, Charlotte had behaved quite well at home. It was obvious that she knew she
had committed mistakes in the past. Perhaps feeling that her patience was running out, Charles closed
his book and said, “From tomorrow onward, you don’t have to stay at home anymore. Just go wherever
you want.”

He thought that Charlotte would be so elated that she would jump for joy, but weirdly enough, she
simply hummed a response and left it at that.

Charles couldn’t stand it anymore. “What exactly is wrong with you? Did you get bullied after all?”

Charlotte shook her head and forced herself to sit up as she said to him, “Dad, do you think Uncle
Joseph is really dead?”

When Charles heard that, his expression sank a little. After a while, he said, “He’s not part of the
Woodleys anymore, and neither is he your uncle. He has nothing to do with us.”



Charlotte pouted and fell silent.

Seeing her like that, Charles sighed silently. “Charlotte, I never said much to you about… this incident,
but you also saw what he did that day. He was planning to kill everyone in the Woodley Family, and he
even destroyed your grandfather’s ashes. He’s no longer the Uncle Joseph who used to pamper you
when you were young.”

“But…” Charlotte felt it was inappropriate to say this, but still, she couldn’t help correcting Charles.
“Those aren’t Grandpa’s ashes, though…”

Charles was stunned, then said furiously, “You—”

Charlotte hastily put some distance between them. “I know what you mean, but it’s the truth.”

Charles was silent for a moment before saying, “Have you forgotten what he did to you in Highside?”

“I didn’t. Uncle Joseph did hire people to take me away, but he never hurt me,” Charlotte said quietly. “I
know what you want to say, and I know Uncle Joseph isn’t a good man, but… you were wrong just now.
He’s still the same Uncle Joseph who pampered me when I was young.”

Charles was stunned. He swallowed the words he was about to say, unable to retort for a moment.

No matter how many unforgivable things Joseph did, it was true that he hadn’t harmed Charlotte at all
—that was precisely why they had planned everything during the funeral.

Charles sighed and fell silent.

Charlotte continued, “Someone told me that only I know how Uncle Joseph treated me. People might
see him as a bad guy, but to me, he’ll always be my Uncle Joseph.”

She did have a point there.



Charles asked casually, “Who told you that?”

“Well, it was… Leanna. Aidan’s girlfriend.”

Charles was speechless.

He was stunned for two seconds before he reprimanded her, saying, “You should be calling her your
aunt!”

Charlotte stuck her tongue out at him, then got up and went upstairs. “I don’t care. She’s only a few
years older than me!”

Just then, Philip walked out from the side with his cane. “Is Charlotte back?”

Charles nodded. “Yes, but she’s a little upset because of Joseph.”

Philip sat on the couch and let out a long sigh. “Despite everything, Joseph did treat her well.”

Charles fell silent for a while before saying, “Grandpa, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”

“Is it about Charlotte getting married to Lachlan?”

“Yes. After all this ruckus, the Woodley Family has finally calmed down, and Lachlan might require our
help again. Charlotte, well… She snuck into Highside because she didn’t want to get married to
Lachlan in the first place. I’ve thought long and hard about it, and I can see that she can’t quite accept
this marriage. I’ve also asked Lachlan about this before, and he said that Charlotte is just a little girl to
him. He doesn’t have any intention of marrying her.”

Philip touched his cane, saying after a pause, “Charles, Lachlan’s grandfather and I arranged this
marriage while he was still alive. I allowed Charlotte to marry Lachlan because it would help strengthen



the position of the head of the Woodley Family, and it will also help continue the bloodline. We had no
other options. Do you know why?”

Charles couldn’t quite understand. “Why?”

“Lachlan is a young man with great ambition. He wants far more than just Jamesdon, which is why he
tried so hard to get rid of the rules in the Woodley Family. His grandfather realized what he was trying
to do, so he came to me.”

Charles said, “In other words, the rules have to be abolished, but at the same time, we have to hold
Lachlan back so that he won’t overdo it.”

Philip nodded. “The Woodleys are still the same. It is a family that has existed for hundreds of years, so
it cannot be destroyed just like that. Charles, Lachlan’s grandfather had another reason for letting
Charlotte marry Lachlan. He probably knew that we couldn’t contain Lachlan, but if Charlotte married
him, at least he wouldn’t wipe us out. Do you understand?”

Charles frowned and fell silent.

By the looks of it, they weren’t the ones calling the shots in the marriage; it was entirely up to Lachlan.
Moreover, this marriage could control the Woodley Family’s fate, let alone their own family.

After a while, Charles said, “The way I see it, Lachlan’s grandfather wants us to maintain a balance
with each other so that the forces in the Woodley Family will be balanced out.”

Philip said, “You have a point, though. This burden shouldn’t fall on the shoulders of a young girl like
Charlotte. Let’s call off the wedding. As for the future, we’ll talk about it when the time comes. Let’s just
deal with things as we go. I believe that even if Lachlan wants to wipe out the Woodleys, he wouldn’t
go too far.”



Charles replied, “I’ll solve this problem in another two days.”

Philip stood up. “Charlotte might have trouble accepting the truth about Joseph. You should talk to her.”

Charles suddenly spoke up. “Do you think Lachlan might be behind this?”

“It doesn’t matter anymore. Joseph has always been the sinner of the Woodley Family. If he hadn’t
gone that far, I might have spared his life, but sadly… this must be the will of the heavens.”

With that, Philip slowly walked away with his cane.
