Charlie's words filled Maria with an unspoken sense of anxiety.
Although few people are aware of Master Geoffrey's identity as a monk, he is still a renowned figure in the realm of Buddhism due to his accomplishments. Once he returns to China, it will be impossible for Charlie to remain unaware of his whereabouts. If that happens, and Charlie locates him, he might discover that his mother, Lily, is still alive.
In a previous conversation, Lily confided that her inability to recognize Charlie stemmed from Morgana’s persistent suspicion that she was not dead. After Lily faked her death, she inserted a scholar into the Evans family to gather information.
In Morgana's view, Lily was the true threat, while Charlie, the boy who had been missing since he was eight, posed no danger. Thus, Lily believed that recognition between herself and Charlie would not only be unhelpful to his quest for revenge, but it might actually hinder him significantly.
Maria fully supported this perspective.
