Chapter 753: Chapter 753: Surviving the Disaster (6)

——Divider Line——

Two days later, despite Bryan Hawkins’ objections, Carolline Ruiz followed Gary Skate and George Edwards to Kyoto, to welcome home the souls of the martyrs.

Mia Parker and Ben Parker also joined. Mia Parker met Carolline Ruiz on the plane, so she shamelessly exchanged seats with the person next to Carolline.

Everyone on the plane looked solemn. Therefore, Mia couldn’t have a lively conversation with Carolline. They could only exchange whispers, fearing that their conversation might alert the Clark family, who knows how they would react?

"I mean, the Clark family is sitting behind us. Aren’t you afraid they will give you trouble?" Mia whispered into Carolline’s ear.

"They aren’t as unreasonable as you think." Still, Carolline was quite shocked by the Clark family’s reaction.

She had thought that even if they weren’t openly hostile, they wouldn’t remain so calm in her presence. However, they did treat her with composure - perhaps a result of their own brush with life and death.

"Hmm." To Mia, her impression of the Clark family remained as unfriendly as the first time she interviewed Charlotte Clark.

Moreover, she had been told in graphic detail about the event when the Clark family barged into the dean’s office, only fueling her distaste for them further.

"Don’t worry, the Clark family has genuinely changed," Gary Skate intervened.

"Well, with you present in the hospital, even if the Clark family becomes unreasonable, you would stop them, wouldn’t you?" Mia almost forgot Gary Skate was also in Carolline’s hospital.

"Yes, yes," Gary Skate replied indifferently before turning to Carolline. "Weren’t you supposed to choose your wedding photos with Bryan Cooper today? He told you not to go, but you insisted."

"I couldn’t let it go without taking a look. So after seeing it, I can be a bride without any reservations. By the way, Dean Skate, when I return this time, I don’t want to take marriage leave, I want to resign," Carolline informed Gary Skate.

No matter what others might say, she believed that Bryan Hawkins had forced Edward Clark to go to Africa for her sake. If it weren’t for that, Edward might not have gone to Africa, and the Clark family wouldn’t have suffered such a disaster.

Of course, the Clark family might not have been happy even if Edward hadn’t gone to Africa. However, at least Carolline wouldn’t have been involved.

"Have you really decided to resign?" Gary Skate thought, this would probably make Bryan Hawkins overjoyed.

"Yes, I didn’t resign before because I felt the time wasn’t right. Now it’s time," Carolline nodded. She thought about the few decades left in her life, which seemed like a long time at first, but never enough when shared with someone. And given the unpredictability of life events, every moment of togetherness was precious.

They soon arrived in Kyoto, a flight of about one hour and ten minutes from G City.

After leaving the plane, Mia and Ben Parker went to work. Carolline followed Gary to their destination.

The entire scene was solemn and reverent. During the return of the martyrs’ souls, the crowd on site and the nation-wide audience watching the live broadcast maintained complete silence, except for the uncontrollable sobbing of the martyrs’ relatives.

With Edward Clark’s company, the elder members of the Clark family couldn’t hold back their tears, especially when they saw Edward’s photograph and his body being carried out—his mother almost fainted once again.
