"What happened?"
Jim's arrival had pulled Iris back from the brink of danger. Jim quickly looked around, his brow furrowed, a look of confusion in his eyes. His gaze finally landed on Emily, who was on the floor, then shifted to Iris, sitting on the bed with her clothes in disarray and tears streaming down her face.
With a voice both firm and powerful, Jim stepped toward Iris, keeping a watchful eye on Emily's reaction.
Emily lifted her head, spotting a tall, blond man entering the room. She quickly changed her expression, tears swirling in her eyes, trying to appear both victimized and innocent. Her voice trembled, filled with a sobbing tone, "Whoever you are... thank you for showing up in time.This woman... she just went crazy, tried to attack me! To attack a disabled person who can't walk, I was just defending myself, I would never hurt anyone without reason."
