章 579: Fear of Choices

Klaus' heart raced as he recognized Emma and he instinctively hid behind a pillar at the side of the hotel entrance.

Her blue eyes, her thin nose and her snow-white skin.... A flood of memories and emotions flooded his mind. With discretion, he took refuge behind the column again, to keep out of their field of vision.

The memory of the last time he met Emma was still as intense as an open wound, the bitter taste of disappointment lingering vividly in his mind.
