As Eva turned to face the person who asked her how she managed to survive Kazarich, she was stunned to see who it was. Her heart skipped a beat, and she gasped in shock, unable to believe her eyes.
"You!" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with a mix of emotions.
The man, who was none other than Karl, didn't seem surprised to see her. However, his eyes flickered with a hint of recognition as they locked onto hers.
Without a second thought, Eva rushed towards him and wrapped her arms around him in a tight embrace.
But to her surprise, Karl remained stiff and unresponsive, his body seemingly frozen in place.
He towered over her, his tall frame making her feel small and fragile.
For a brief moment, silence hung heavy in the air between them.
Eva's mind was racing with questions, but she couldn't bring herself to break the embrace. She just held on, feeling the warmth of his body against hers.
