"You are that witness, right? You were the little girl at that mansion that night, right?" He continued as Lane's tears slowly dripped on her cheeks. Alvarez knew that Lanie was the only witness that night when he read the diary of his father.
"Please tell me, Lanie, please." He approached her and held her in both arms.
"Please tell me. I will protect you as he protects you." She looked at him and all she saw was the sincerity and determination in his eyes. She wiped her tears and slowly nodded at him. Alvarez supported her and made her sit on the sofa. He waited for her until she composed herself. Even though he was desperate to know the whole story, he doesn't want to force Lanie. He didn't say anything, his presence was enough to make her feel safe and that someone was finally here to listen to her except Jake.
