Charlotte's gaze met Kendall's. The latter hurriedly turned around. It was not difficult to see that Kendall's gaze was filled with resentment.

That was her problem. In any case, she would only lend a helping hand if Rick was about to drop dead in the next second. Otherwise, it wasn't a big deal. She only wanted to make sure that Rick wouldn't feel like she had any feelings for him. That would be too dangerous.

Besides, breaking up had been Rick's ideas. In their relationship, Rick had always taken the lead. Since he had given things up, why should she keep thinking about it? Why should she care about him? "Women are so confusing." Avery sighed.

Charlotte didn't have any intention of defending herself. She didn't even look at Rick and Kendall.

After the cremation was complete, Rick's legs were still trembling.

The cars in the parking lot of the crematorium left one by one. The ashes would not be handled by them. But, right now, in Rick's condition, he couldn't deal with anything. So someone else from the Jane family had to collect the ashes and send them off to be buried.

However, only a few people from the Jane family had come. After all, most of the Jane family were abroad, and Mielle was of a younger generation. No one had rushed back to the country to deal with her funeral.

"Can this document only be signed by Rick?" Avery raised his wrist. It was already eight o'clock. He still had a meeting at eleven o'clock. He needed at least an hour to get back to the city from here. If he delayed any longer, he would be late.

"They're afraid that someone might steal the ashes, probably," Charlotte said.

Avery said impatiently, "Who would steal that? Won't they be afraid of being haunted?"

"I've asked the people here. They've lost people's ashes before. Afterward, they even approached the family members to ask if they wanted to buy the ashes back. These people exist. They're not scared of anything," Charlotte said.

"That's so despicable," Avery said, gritting his teeth.

In the end, it was not until Rick had recovered that he began to go through the formalities.

The graveyard was not far away from the crematorium. It would only take half an hour to get there. Shane had already made arrangements at the graveyard. All they had to do was get there.

Charlotte wasn't a fan of graveyards. They were creepy.

It wasn't just her, though. This graveyard in River City was long believed to be severely haunted.
