Chapter 752 Babies Were Just Too Cute

Half an hour later, Leanna looked at the pile of toys in front of her as she remained silent.

She thought this tactic would hold Charlotte back a little.

Little did she know Charlotte was so skillful…

From the side, Charlotte could be heard saying, "I've got another one!"

Leanna was speechless.

Just as Charlotte was about to continue playing, Leanna said, "Alright, Charlotte, that's enough."

Charlotte said, "I'm going to get a few more!"

Leanna licked her lips. "I'm getting thirsty. Let's get something to drink."

When Charlotte heard that, she could only give up. "Alright. We'll get a drink, then we can come back later…"

Leanna hastily pulled her away.

The toys she obtained were stuffed into various shopping bags and taken back to the car by the bodyguards.

As they sat in the cafe, Charlotte played with the little guy for a moment, then flopped on the table as if she were

completely spent. She didn't even want to move.

Leanna asked, "What's the matter? You looked so spirited just now."

"It's nothing. I just feel like everything's changed…"

Seeing Charlotte's gradually sinking expression, Leanna said, "You should be happy that your grandfather is still

alive."

Charlotte supported her chin with her arm. "Yes, Grandpa is still alive, but…"

She didn't continue her sentence, but Leanna understood what she was trying to say.

Leanna said, "His body hasn't been found yet, so he might be alive."

Charlotte simply sighed. "Or maybe he didn't leave anything behind—not even his bones."

As she spoke, she looked at Leanna. "Leanna, I know Uncle Joseph did a lot of bad things, and he even caused Miss

Zoe to lose her child, but for some reason, I just can't hate him. Is there something wrong with me?"

Leanna smiled. "No. I've said this before; he did hurt a lot of people, but he'll always be your Uncle Joseph. Only you

know how he treated you, and that will influence whether you hate him or not."

Charlotte stared at the cup on the table. "Say, on that day at the cemetery, if Lachlan hadn't appeared, would he

have killed my dad and everyone in the Woodley Family?"

Leanna said, "Yes."

Charlotte sighed again, but she didn't know what to say.

Leanna also knew she had mixed feelings about Joseph, but curiously enough, no matter how bad a person was, as

long as they still had a bit of conscience, one would feel like they still had a chance to turn back.

Perhaps only people who were truly hurt by him would paint him as a villain.

A while later, Charlotte said, "Before Uncle Joseph left, he told me something."

Leanna shook her thoughts away. "What is it?"

"He said—"

Charlotte recalled the day when they were by the river. Joseph's voice was low, but he wasn't voicing a threat. It

sounded more like a word of caution.

"Don't trust Lachlan. After he deals with the Woodleys, his next targets will be your grandfather and your father."

After Charlotte finished her story, Leanna thought for a bit before saying, "Do you believe what he said?"

Charlotte stared ahead of her, zoning out. "I don't know. However, Lachlan admitted that he was involved in the

deaths of the elders that day."

"He was involved, you say?"

Charlotte nodded. "Even though Uncle Joseph was the one who did it, judging by what they said, Lachlan should

have known everything about it beforehand, but he didn't stop Uncle Joseph. He even—"

Charlotte didn't know what part did Lachlan play in that incident.

She mumbled, "After spending time with him, I thought he wasn't the person the rumors made him out to be, and

perhaps I had misunderstood him. I never thought that he would be that scary, though. The elders were stubborn

and traditional in their thinking, but they watched over us as we grew up, so no matter what, they shouldn't—"

Leanna interrupted the woman, saying, "Charlotte, it seems like you do have some sort of prejudice against

Lachlan."

Charlotte was stunned. She cocked her head to the side, not quite getting what Leanna meant.

Leanna explained patiently, "Even if it were like what you said, that Lachlan knew Joseph would kill the elders but

didn't do anything about it, he's partly to blame, but you've forgotten one thing."

"What is it?"

"Joseph was the one who killed them, not him."

Leanna continued, "I'm not trying to defend Lachlan, but if Joseph hadn't planned this, he wouldn't have done it. You

can blame Lachlan for not saving the elders, but you have to know that Joseph was the one who killed them."

Bewildered, Charlotte said, "I got it…"

Leanna didn't tell Charlotte about the complicated forces in the Woodley Family. The elders were dead now, so

there was no point in debating it.

At any rate, she never thought Lachlan was a good man in any sense.

Not many people were good; Aidan and Leanna weren't considered good people either.

Such was the way of the world. Everyone would plot and plan things to get what they wanted.

Perhaps these things were normal to them, but in other people's eyes, they might look like they would stop at

nothing to get what they wanted.

However, concerning this incident, Leanna felt that Charlotte shouldn't keep zeroing in on one odd aspect.

Leanna took a few sips from her cup. After calming down, she had no idea what nonsense she had just spouted.

She looked up and saw Charlotte reflecting earnestly, so she stopped talking.

Never mind, she would just leave things as they were.

Sometime later, the little guy was probably getting uncomfortable from sitting, so he began making a fuss, trying to

get out of the stroller.

Leanna held him in her arms as she said to Charlotte, "Let's have lunch. After that, I'll take him to the playground

downstairs for a while."

Charlotte stood up and said, "Alright. There's a very nice restaurant upstairs; let's have something to eat there."

"Let's go."

When they were going up, the little guy refused to sit anymore. After getting out of Leanna's arms, he started

tottering forward.

Fearing that he might trip and fall, Leanna held his tiny hand when she saw him walking unsteadily.

Charlotte pushed the stroller as she followed behind them. When she saw this scene, her heart almost melted.

Babies were just too cute.

During lunch, Charlotte asked, "Leanna, are you going back to Highside soon?"

Leanna nodded. "I also meant to ask you about this today. Will you be going to Highside again?"

Charlotte let out a long breath. "Not for the time being. My dad is still pissed, so I have to behave myself and wait

for his approval before I can go. If I run away behind his back again, he probably won't let me go home next time."

Leanna smiled. "Hang in there. When the Woodleys have done away with these hidden rules, you can visit Highside

whenever you want."
