Chapter 357
In the cemetery near Saphira, an expensive SUV slowly pulled up to the main entrance.
The driver’s door opened. The driver got out, walked quickly to the trunk, and took out a wooden wheelchair. After setting up the wheelchair, he moved to the passenger side.
He opened the door and gently lifted out an elderly man with white hair, who had lost his legs, and placed him in the wheelchair.
“Master, we’re here. It’s a bit chilly today, let me grab you another coat. The speaker was Eugene, who was abandoned by his birth parents and adopted by Carson,
He received the best education and upbringing, learning skills and knowledge from Carson. Without Carson, he wouldn’t be where he was today. This kindness was more than familial.
Eugene pulled out a thick wool coat and wrapped it around Carson. “Alright, I’ll push you inside.”
Saying this, he handed a bouquet of daisies to Carson and pushed the wheelchair towards the cemetery. Carson gazed at the rows of white tombstones, overwhelmed with emotion.
The last time, which was also the first time he came here, was the day after Amelia’s seven–day memorial.
That day, Cherise just happened to board her flight to Betrico. Carson’s mood then was completely different from what it
was now.
If the last visit was marked by some reluctance and regret, this time it was more about acceptance and longing.
Today, it was indeed surprisingly cold, with a dull, overcast sky. Especially in a place like a cemetery, it felt even more desolate and lonely.
Eugene pushed the wheelchair to a stop in front of Cherise’s grandmother’s gravestone and quietly informed Carson, “We’re here.”
Carson didn’t say anything and just smiled softly at the photo on the gravestone, “Amelia, I’m here to see you again! It’s been several months since I last visited you.
“When I think about it, it feels kind of funny. I never dared to openly stand before you until after you passed away. Actually. to be precise, it’s sitting in front of you and looking at you.
t you can see me. Just look at me, my hair’s all white new. Last time, it wasn’t this extreme.
“Well, I bet you
“Tell me, do I still look alright? Haha, who knows which memories you took with you after you passed away? But, shamelessly, I like to think you kept the memories from after meeting me.
“Cherise, that kid came to see me. She’s really great. She showed ine c
were thinking. I can only say, life loves to play tricks on us!”
little notebook, and now I understand what you
Carson said this as he covered his face with both hands, lookings though he was deeply sad.
Eugene stood behind him, wanting to comfort him but at a loss for words, and decided to let it go.
After a while, Carson slowly lowered his hands and looked up. you can hear me, promise me. In the next life, make sure to find me first.
“We missed in this life, so I’ll give it back to your in the next life, right?”

A cold wind swept through, rustling the yellowish leaves in the cemetery. Above the branches, a few unknown birds kept chirping. Their calls sounded somewhat sad and lonely. Eugene slowly pushed Carson away from this place.
Left behind here was only the white tombstone, with the still bright smile of Amelia. And the beautiful daisies that Carson had just brought, so much like Amelia’s smile. The car started and drove away.
As they went through a narrow concrete road, they coincidentally encountered a large business van approaching from the opposite direction.
The person in the business van was Morris, who had just arrived from the airport.
“Mr. Chivers, there’s a car ahead. We can’t back up, and we can’t move forward. It’s difficult to go forward or backward.
“The driver of the vehicle in front is probably in the same situation as us, and who knows if they’re a good driver. Maybe I should get out and ask them to back up,” Leo suggested from the driver’s seat.
Indeed, the road was very narrow. It would be easier if the car in front backed up first since they had a shorter distance to go.
Morris had just finished his work and was eager to see the person he’d been longing for. Suddenly, this situation arose, which was quite annoying.
Sitting in the second row, he looked up through the windshield at the person in the opposite car and noticed the old mat with white hair in the passenger seat nodding and smiling at him
Seeing this, Morris politely nodded back. Then he asked, “Does this car’s windshield not have a privacy film?”
Leo said, “Of course it does, all our cars have it. We chose the ones with the highest privacy level. Even if you lie on the hood, you might not be able to see inside the car.”
Morris gave a quick nod. “Let’s back up the car and let theirs go first.”
Leo raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “Mr. Chivers, it’s almost 0.1 mile since we got in. Are you sure? Aren’t you in a hurry to see Mrs. Chivers?”
Morris didn’t say whether he was in a hurry or not. He just said,m sure. Let’s back up!”
Hearing Morris’s words, Leo didn’t dare to oppose him and just followed his orders. After quickly shifting to reverse gear, he slowly backed the car up.
Eugene said, “Wow, the owner of the car opposite has really good manners!
“I was just thinking of backing up myself. We only have to reverse a few feet, but for them, it’s probably around 0.1 mile,” Eugene watched as the car in front started reversing and couldn’t help but say.
Carson in the passenger seat nodded approvingly. “Not bad, he’s a good kid.”
