I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 640

Chapter 640 What’s Going On?

Leanna noticed the injuries on Charlotte's face and suggested, "You should go to the rest area and change your clothes. I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out."

Charlotte shook her head. "It's okay. Uncle Joseph already took me to see a doctor on the way back. It's just a few scratches. Nothing serious."

"Okay, change your clothes then."

After Charlotte went into the rest area, Leanna left the studio to go to the pharmacy to buy some disinfectant.

Zoe followed her and noticed that Leanna seemed distracted. She asked in a quiet voice, "What's wrong, Nana?"

Leanna paused for a moment and shook her head. "Nothing."

"Are you thinking about Charlotte's Uncle Joseph? I also find him suspicious. He suddenly appeared out of nowhere. What do you think he wants?" asked Zoe.

Leanna sighed, "He said he came to Highside because he heard something happened in Woodley Residence recently. In other words, he came for Aidan."

"Oh, I didn't think of that."

"The situation in Woodley Residence is very chaotic right now. In my opinion, all the Woodley family members have problems. But he left Woodley Residence ten years ago, so I'm not sure about him."

As they were walking, Leanna stopped and said, "Zoe, wait for me. I need to make a phone call."

Zoe nodded. "Okay."

Leanna took out her phone, walked to the side of the road, and called Waylen.

When the ringtone was about to end, Waylen finally answered.

Leanna asked, "Are you busy right now?"

"Not really. Do you want me to show you your son via video call?"

"No, I'm not calling about him."

"Then..."

"I want to ask if you know Charlotte's uncle, Joseph Woodley?"

Waylen hesitated for a while as he probably was not expecting to hear that name from her.

Then, Waylen said, "I know him; what happened?"

"Charlotte told me that he died 10 years ago. But he showed up in Highside today."

After that, Leanna briefly recounted what happened today.

Waylen was a little confused on the phone. "Wait, are you saying that Joseph didn't die? He came to Highside and coincidentally met Charlotte?"

Leanna said, "Yes. So, I wanted to ask you about what's up with him."

"I don't know much about him, but I heard he was dead. After that, whenever anyone in the Woodley Family mentioned him, it was always a taboo subject. I guess it's probably related to his departure from the Woodley Family."

"Does Lachlan know about him?"

"He should know about him more than I do. I'll ask him about it and get back to you."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Leanna stood there for a while before going back to find Zoe and entering the pharmacy together. When they returned to the studio, Charlotte had already changed her clothes and was wiping her face with water. Leanna called her into the office and took out some iodine and cotton swabs to clean the wounds on her face.

Charlotte winced in pain, but Leanna comforted, "Just endure a little longer. It will soon be over."

So, Charlotte obediently stayed put.

Leanna continued, "Be careful when you go out later. If you encounter any bad people, shout for help. Aidan has bodyguards watching over you, and they will know immediately if you're in danger."

However, given today's situation, Leanna still needed to ask Keaton about the matter. In theory, with bodyguards following Charlotte, nothing should have happened.

"I understand," Charlotte replied.

After tending to Charlotte's wounds, Leanna threw away the cotton swab and said, "Okay, let me take you home."

"But it's not yet time to get off work."

"It's fine. You can have the day off today and go home to rest early."

Charlotte looked dejectedly at Leanna and asked, "Leanna, do you think I'm useless and only causing trouble for you guys, especially when nothing good ever happens around me?"

Leanna smiled and ruffled her hair. "You're so cute. How could you think that you're useless? What happened today was just a one-off incident. You've been doing a great job in the studio for the past few days."

Charlotte remained silent and lowered her head, but she was indeed satisfied with her own performance in the studio these days, except for today.

After a while, she said, "I can go home by myself. I know the way."

Leanna thought for a moment and nodded gently. "Okay, but send me a message when you get home."

"Okay."

Leanna escorted Charlotte to the entrance of the studio and watched her walk away. Then she went to the roadside and found Keaton's car.

Keaton quickly stepped out of the car and greeted Leanna with a polite "Miss McKinney."

Leanna asked, "Do you guys know about what just happened?"
