Always a smooth talker, he suddenly had no words at all.
He kept saying he'd protect Sierra, that he wouldn't let her suffer again. But right under his nose, she had endured torment unlike anything before. That was something Johnathan would never be able to forgive himself for.
"Sorry" felt too hollow. He wanted to hold Sierra tightly, but he didn't feel worthy.

She had known Johnathan for so many years, but she had never seen him like this.

No one had noticed anything strange about her. Maddox and the others just assumed she had been scared by Johnathan.
Maddox took a deep breath. "I'll go in." What happened today had to be addressed eventually. And since it had started because of him, he owed both Johnathan and Sierra an answer.
He had already identified a few suspicious people. He hadn't moved on them yet-he figured Johnathan would want to handle it himself.

But then, the glass was nowhere to be found. Mateo caught it-when theserver turned a corner, the glass was tumed gone from his hands. They searched the trash, but it had already been emptied. Of the three, Maddox found that server the most suspicious.
If he had nothing to hide, why get rid of the glass? Jof course, since they hadn't been interrogated yet, the exact details were unclear.
Maddox had kept his distance to avoid suspicion, so for now, they were just being watched.
"They're under guard. Do you want to question them yourself or Get Store erx handle it?" Johnathan looked at Maddox, then asked, "What about the other person!" The one who tried to assault Sierra.
He couldn't even say the words.
