Chapter 646 This Is Absurd
After cleaning the tombstones, Neil held Caroline’s hand as they placed bouquets of flowers.
Neil said, “Mom, Dad, I brought Carol to visit you. I’ve found her, so you can be at peace now.”
Caroline felt a connection as she looked at the photos on the tombstones but didn’t know what to say. In
the end, she softly muttered, “Mom, Dad.”
Neil smiled at Caroline. “Don’t be too tense. I’m sure our parents are thrilled to see you.”
Caroline didn’t know what to say, so she glanced at her children. She waved at Axel and Tyler, then.
looked at Liora, who was hiding in Evan’s arms.
She was surprised. “Lia?”
Liora’s head moved, but she had no intention of showing her face.
Evan looked at Caroline. “She’s cold.”
Suddenly, Benjamin’s words came to her mind, but she quickly dismissed the strange thought.
She took Tyler and Axel’s hands and led them to the tombstones
Neil said, “Mom, Dad, these are Carol’s children…”
Just as his voice faded, a strong wind began to blow, leaves rustled, and Liora trembled in fear.
“Let’s go!” Liora cried in Evan’s arms. I want to go!”
Caroline patted Liora’s back with concern. “What’s happening, Lia? Can you tell me?”
“I don’t want to be here anymore! I want to go!” Liora cried.
Caroline looked at Neil, and he nodded solemnly. “Let’s go. We’ll leave if Liora’s scared.”
Caroline and the others hurriedly left the graveyard.
Benjamin appeared before they departed. He glanced at Llora and told Caroline, “Come here, ma’am.”
Caroline was surprised. She walked over to Benjamin and asked, “How can I assist you, Benjamin?”
Benjamin handed her an old amulet. “Hold onto this amulet. The girl may face difficulties as an adult. Let
her keep this with her and never take it off. If she struggles, bring her to me.”
Evan frowned deeply upon hearing Benjamin’s words. ‘This is absurd!‘
Just as Evan was about to lead Caroline away, she said, “How much does the amulet cost, Benjamin? I
can’t accept your generous gift for nothing.”
–
“It’s fine. I feel a connection with the girl. Benjamin waved his hand dismissively.
Caroline wanted to say more, but Benjamin frowned. “I said I don’t want money!”
Caroline relented after seeing Benjamin’s persistence. She asked, “May I know your full name, Benjamin?”
Benjamin replied, “They call me Blind Ben, but you may address me as Benjamin.”
Benjamin took a deep look at Liora, shook his head, and walked toward a run–down cottage nearby.
They returned to the car, and Evan looked at Caroline seriously. “Do you believe what he said?”
Caroline gently comforted Liora and said, “Benjamin seems like a kind person. Plus, it’s just an amulet.

Evan looked away with a cold demeanor. ‘It’s nothing but baseless superstition.”
Caroline countered, “Do you have to interpret his good intentions so negatively?”
Evan was displeased. “Don’t casually accept gifts for the children from someone else.”
