Chapter 706 Two Kids Suddenly Disappeared They followed the staff into the cave, and the originally spacious cave suddenly split into three paths. The staff signaled for them to choose one. Ben and Anna hesitated at the cave entrance for a long time. Just as they were about to make a choice, a group of young people suddenly rushed out from somewhere, laughing strangely and running into another entrance. They haphazardly chose a fork in the road and disappeared into it. Joe furrowed his brow and steadied Charlotte. When they turned around, they found that Ben and Anna had disappeared without a trace. Enter title…
Charlotte was greatly alarmed. She immediately shouted Ben and Anna’s names loudly at the cave entrance, but there was no response. Meanwhile, Joe unhesitatingly pressed the emergency assistance button on the wall. After explaining the situation to the other side, the pitch-dark cave suddenly
became brightly lit. Many tourists who were still participating in the game loudly protested, not understanding what was happening. Charlotte frowned and said to Joe, “Let’s each take one fork in the road. We’ll meet at the main entrance in half an hour. If we’re lucky, we might find them.” At this moment, Charlotte’s heart was in her throat, but she couldn’t afford to be lax, fearing that her one mistake might mean they never find Ben and Anna again. Joe comfortingly embraced her and said, “Don’t worry, Ben and Anna are both very clever kids. They’ll be fine.” Charlotte nodded absentmindedly, hoping that it would be so.
Without wasting any more time, they walked forward along their respective paths. The radio kept calling out Ben and Anna’s names, hoping that they would hurry to the entrance and reunite with their parents upon hearing the broadcast. As they ventured deeper into the cave, Charlotte’s palms grew increasingly sweaty. She kept moving forward almost mechanically, not daring to stop for a moment. Images of news stories about missing children she had seen in the past kept flashing through her mind. She couldn’t bear to imagine what she would do if anything happened to Ben and Anna. Large beads of sweat formed on her forehead, and Charlotte became more and more nervous. At that moment, a sound as beautiful as the music echoed, “Mom!” Charlotte widened her eyes, thinking she might be hallucinating. She held her breath and carefully listened, confirming that it was indeed Ben and Anna’s voices. Charlotte immediately had a start. She didn’t even have time to call Joe; she hurriedly ran in the direction of the voices. After running for an unknown distance, Charlotte finally saw Ben and Anna sitting dejectedly on some rocks not too far away, repeatedly calling for their mom. Upon seeing her two children, Charlotte felt as if she had come back to life. She stood there, gasping for air, tears welled up in her eyes. Her gaze was fixed on her two children not far away, and she reached out towards them with trembling hands. She opened her mouth but couldn’t make a sound. Her throat tightened.
She pinched herself hard, and finally, Charlotte managed to croak, “Ben! Anna!” The initially dejected Ben and Anna immediately looked up, their faces lighting up with joy as they rushed towards Charlotte, shouting, “Mom!” Being tackled by her two children, Charlotte finally felt that her world was secure at that moment. She held them tightly and examined them from head to toe, asking, “Are you two hurt?” Ben and Anna quickly shook their heads, snuggling into Charlotte’s embrace. “We’re fine, Mom, just that we met a strange old lady…”
