Chapter 654
It was, in truth, a very shocking moment, full of hidden complexities behind it. Yet, the instant Adriana laid eyes on Reinhart, her mind went completely blank, pushing aside all her other worries and concerns.
Every other thought simply vanished. Without hesitation, she ran to him and wrapped her arms around him.
She had heard somewhere that he was safe and knew he had appeared in the capital, and so she knew he was safe. But standing there, face-to-face with him, an overwhelming sense of relief washed over her, and she couldn’t help but hold him close, forgetting everything else.
As her mind slowly began to fill up with thoughts again, she realized she might have hugged him a bit too tightly.
Reinhart, in turn, embraced Adriana as well.
It was a joyful reunion, but...
“...”
“...”
The silence stretched on, and the atmosphere grew increasingly awkward.
Their embrace, as if they were long-lost siblings reunited after a war, felt overly intense.
‘Were we... really this close?’
That thought was unavoidable.
