Chapter 189: Similar Woman
"Iris—" Suddenly, Xavier’s words faded as he heard the witch doctor’s inner thoughts.
A faint frown creased his forehead as he glanced at her.
’Wait for me outside. We’ll talk later,’ he communicated to the witch doctor through their mental connection before refocusing on Iris.
"Iris, do you want to stay here?" He asked, meeting her gloomy gaze. "Eric will be in this state for the time being. And I can’t tell when he’ll wake up..."
Her hand clenched into a fist upon hearing Xavier’s words. She couldn’t help but voice the pressing question on her mind, "Will his flesh heal? I mean... He won’t look like this forever, right?"
He slightly shook his head, "I need to speak with the doctor about that. Iris, do you want to wait here or join Justin and Niles in the living room?"
Xavier needed a private conversation with the doctor regarding Eric’s condition and her earlier thoughts.
Iris didn’t immediately respond but glanced at Eric’s on the bed. The sight of his face alone pained her heart, and the thought of seeing his body might be unbearable.
"I’ll wait for you outside," she finally said.
Before long, she joined Justin and Niles. They were surprised to see her entering the living room alone.
"Iris, you came alone?" Justin greeted her with a wave, inviting her to join them. Iris simply nodded upon seeing them but was taken aback when her gaze fell on Killian.
