Chapter 148: Starting The Plan (2)

When Xavier returned to Iris’ room, his eyes slowly darkened once more upon seeing Iris lying on the bed, her face still pale. Although her body continued healing while she slept, the process took longer than expected.

He carefully took the pill that Lucian had given him and gently placed it into Iris’ mouth. Like before, he kissed her lips, channeling water to help the medicine enter her body. A slight sense of relief washed over him as he observed the medicine entering her body.

"I hope tomorrow you will have fully recovered, Iris," he whispered while gently holding her cold hand. "Did you know? I feel so lonely without you by my side... So you better wake up!"

The next day, Xavier left Iris’ room after confirming her improving condition and sought out Niles. He found Niles standing nearby and greeted him.

Xavier gestured for Niles to sit. Then he elegantly sat on the sofa opposite his loyal person, who only dared to sit after him.

"Have you completed the task of altering their memories regarding Iris?" Xavier asked once he saw Niles comfortably sitting.

The day before, he had instructed Niles to carry out a plan to erase the memories of everyone who knew Iris, making them believe she had passed away during an incident several months earlier.

This difficult decision was made to protect Casandra and Finley and lighten Iris’s burden on her grandmother.

Besides, Xavier had learned from Lucian that Iris would soon be starting her mission not only in this small town but to other countries.

"Milord, everything has been done, including all the administration at the hospital and university," Niles explained everything he had done since yesterday.

"And the Gray cafe will temporarily be managed by Maya and Kevin. They’ve also hired a trainee to assist them. They’re aware that Cassandra will now be living in Switzerland."

"Perfect!" Xavier nodded in satisfaction but later turned his gaze back to Niles. "Did you forget about Daisy’s shop? Iris is quite close to that woman."

"No worries, Milord, I’ve taken care of everyone Iris has ever met or been involved with. There should be no problem now, but—" Niles paused when he remembered the young man who resembled Zayn Malik. He had already traced him but couldn’t find his identity.

"What is it?" Xavier asked, noticing Niles’ frown.

"Milord, I can’t find one person—"

"Who?" Xavier looked slightly tense, hearing Niles’ words. It would be troublesome if there were one person left who knew about Iris.

Niles felt worried about telling him, afraid his Lord would be jealous and angry. But with Xavier’s sharp gaze on him, he couldn’t avoid it and said, "The man who used to pick up Lady Iris at our university."

Xavier gradually relaxed upon hearing this. "No need to find him. He’s not who you might think..."

"Milord, could you please explain more about that person?" Niles asked. He was very curious about the man. A few days ago, he heard from Justin that Iris had met him at Darkhill. Strangely, even though his Lord knew about it, he wasn’t angry.

"He is one of Iris’ guardians, so you don’t have to worry about him. You might see him around Iris often in the future," Xavier explained. Even though he didn’t like Gavriel, he couldn’t stop him from becoming Iris’s mentor.

Niles was shocked to learn the person’s identity. Now, he has become confused about Iris. Why did she have a guardian around her?

Niles wanted to ask Xavier again, but he decided to put the matter aside when he saw Xavier’s expression, which clearly conveyed, "Don’t ask more, or you will die."

Moreover, there was something important he needed to ask his Lord.

"Anything else?" Xavier asked when he saw Niles in a daze as if he were deep in thought.

Niles seemed hesitant to ask, but Xavier could sense what was troubling him.

"It’s about Justin?" Xavier calmly inquired.

Niles nodded, stammering, "Yes, M-Milord..."

Xavier had been furious upon witnessing Iris’s previous condition, which had led to him punishing Justin. However, he knew that Iris’s healing progressed rapidly after taking Lucian’s medicine, putting his mind at ease and improving his mood slightly. He had carefully considered forgiving Justin because he needed him right now; they had many tasks ahead.

"You can call him back," Xavier said, surprising Niles. "Ask him to assist you in managing everything before we move."

"Thank you, Milord. I will call him back. And may I know when we will move?" Niles already knew they would be leaving Silenthill, but he hadn’t expected the move to happen so quickly.

"In the next few weeks. We will wait until Iris recovers," Xavier stated as he rose from his seat. He turned towards the window to observe the view outside. "And what about that foolish woman?"

"She could only endure in the fire room for about five hours..." Niles explained to him what had happened to Selina. "Big sister has already arrived, and she has started taking care of the wild beasts in the forest. However, she requested time to meet you, my Lord."

Xavier turned to Niles, who was now standing not far behind him.

"I’ll meet her when everything is settled here. For now, ask her to stay at the cabin. Alright, you can go now."

Niles lowered his head slightly and proceeded towards the stairs.

After Niles left the third floor, Xavier returned to the bedroom and sat in the same spot, gazing at Iris on the bed.

In the heart of Evergreen City, located in District Six, Justin is confined to one of the penthouses offering stunning ocean views.

Sadly, since his arrival, he has not been able to enjoy the beauty of the scenery that stretches out before him. Instead, dark clouds enveloped his heart and mind, causing sadness.

The sensation of punishment weighed heavily on him as he was exiled from Darkwood Villa. And this beautiful place now felt like a miserable hell.

His mind was spinning non-stop, filled with worry for Iris’ well-being.
