Stay With Me
When Sunday arrived, the entire sky was dark with dry, muggy air, as if it would rain at any moment.
Waylen waited for half a day in front of the laboratory before he saw a black Maybach coming toward
him.
Leanna looked at the laboratory not far away after the car had stopped.
Soon, Aidan said, “Let’s take his car and go there.”
She snapped out of her thoughts. “Alright,” she replied casually and opened the car door.
When Waylen saw them, he reached out to greet them. He didn’t look like he was forced to do it.
Noticing that Leanna had been looking at the lab, Waylen said, “Don’t worry; I made all the
arrangements before I left.”
Leanna nodded gently and didn’t say anything. She knew very well that she couldn’t enter even when
she arrived.
On the road, Waylen drove his car. Through the rearview mirror, he took a moment to look at Leanna
and then at Aidan. He seemed to want to say something but hesitated.
Aidan said indifferently, “If you have something to say, say it.”
Waylen cleared his throat and looked straight ahead. “Actually, it’s nothing significant. It’s just that the
Woodley Family is strict. After you get in, don’t run around; just stay by my side. And do not talk
nonsense during ancestor worship, or you are doomed if the old men hear you.”
“Please be more specific.”
“Probably had to kneel in the ancestral hall for at least two weeks. Furthermore, you would only have
vegetarian meals. And to put it mildly, they let you learn the lesson.”
Tsk, what an awful experience! Waylen thought.
Aidan said, “I got it.”
Waylen turned his head surprisingly. It was probably because he did not expect Aidan to be so
agreeable this time.
Aidan spoke unhurriedly when he met his puzzled gaze. “It looks like you have extensive experience
and getting into trouble was not an option.”
Waylen bit his lip.
He knew he should have said nothing at all.
A moment later, he added, “Ah, if you have any questions you wish to ask, please wait until after the
ancestor worship. Lachlan is not as cunning as you think. If there are things you want to talk about, do
it in private. Just don’t do it in front of so many Woodleys.”
Aidan gave him an expressionless look, and Waylen immediately silenced himself and concentrated on
driving.
Then again, if Lachlan hadn’t avoided Aidan, Aidan wouldn’t have come over.
Keeping Aidan aware of the problem was just a kind gesture to avoid them both getting punished by
kneeling together in the ancestral hall.
On the way, Leanna kept looking out the window and didn’t listen to them much.
She didn’t know how long it had been going on when someone gently held her hand. She turned her
head and looked at Aidan with uncertainty. “What’s wrong?”
He whispered, “I am clueless about what will happen later. Don’t go anywhere; just stay by my side.”
Leanna’s lips were slightly pursed as she nodded.
Just then, Waylen looked out the window. “Here we are.”
A vague shadow of the Woodley Family Estate could be seen outside.
The car drove past two curved gates, and after a few more minutes, the ancient courtyard came into
view.
Two words were written on the door plaque—Woodley Family.
At this time, there were already many cars parked outside the door.
It looked like Waylen had arrived late.
As he got down from his car, someone asked, “Look at the time now. What took you so long?”
Waylen turned his head and smiled. “Uncle, there is still time. Besides, you just got here, didn’t you?”
The middle-aged man looked offended and gave himself airs. “I came here at this time because I have
serious matters to attend to. How about you?”
“Of course, I can’t compare myself to you.”
The middle-aged man frowned when he saw Aidan, and the frown deepened when he saw Leanna
behind Aidan.
He put his hands behind his back and asked in a postured voice, “Waylen, who are these two?”
“Oh, I forgot to introduce them. These two are my friends.”
The man lowered his voice. “Friends? Since when are you allowed to bring your friends into the
Woodley Family Estate? Do you know what day it is today? You—”
Waylen said, “I have asked Lachlan, and he agreed.”
The implication was that the man should speak to Lachlan if he were unhappy about this.
The middle-aged man grunted coldly with discontent written all He ignored Waylen and walked directly
into the house.
Only after he disappeared did Waylen walk up to Aidan and Leanna and say, “Sorry that both of you
have to see that. That man… is just one of the rotten apples that spoil the barrel in the Woodley
Family.”
After a pause, Waylen added, “Let’s go in too.”
From the brief chat with Lachlan before, Leanna could easily guess that although the Woodley Family
was large and wealthy, there were more complex and intertwined relationships than the Pearson
Family had.
On the way, Leanna kept looking out the window and didn’t listen to them much.
The good and bad were intermingled in the Woodley Family.
Judging from Lachlan’s words, what happened at Highside was not his responsibility. However, it was
people from Jamesdon had played along, but so far, no clues had been found.
It was most likely related to these Woodleys.
Thinking about this, Leanna could not help but clench her hands, which were hanging at her side.
There was an extremely huge and spacious courtyard after the main entrance.
It went beyond what had been done by the Pearson Family.
In the ancestral hall, there were already a lot of people there.
The older ones were sitting inside, and those of the middle generation was standing beside them.
Due to the overwhelming number of people, the younger generation like Waylen could only stand by
the wall in the ancestral hall.
Waylen whispered, “The ancestor worship hasn’t started yet, so we can just stay here while waiting for
others to come. They will have to chant for a few hours. We won’t get caught if we doze off here.”
Both Aidan and Leanna were speechless.
Waylen met their eyes and scratched his head. “W-What?”
This was what he had experienced in the past. It was indeed sleep-inducing to listen to those older
people chant during ancestral worship.
Aidan withdrew his gaze with little expression and looked inside the ancestral hall.
The man sitting at the top with full white hair was wearing a formal suit and was most likely to be
Charlotte’s grandfather.
Even Lachlan highly respected him as the oldest member of the Woodley Family.
Not long after, the rest of the guests arrived, one after another.
As he had nothing to do, Waylen began introducing his relatives to the couple.
Looking at the middle-aged man who walked in, Waylen yawned. “That’s Charles, the grandson of the
elder. He’s a very powerful man. The one following him is his daughter, Charlotte. She’s also—”
Halfway through the sentence, Waylen suddenly remembered a gossip he had heard in the past few
days. Turning his head, he gloated over Aidan.
This is now interesting.
Aidan’s expression remained unchanged, and there was no expression on his face. “Stop playing
dumb.”
“Oh, I’ll continue, then. Charlotte, who just turned 20, could be Lachlan’s future wife, but it’s not
confirmed yet.”
