Chapter 340 Too Late 

Quinn had originally wanted Johnathan to find Sierra after she’d been violated

Everything had been set up perfectlyso how had it gone wrong

The doctor said Sierra hadn’t been assaulted. What had happened

Draven noticed Quinn lingering nearby but didn’t question her. He joined Maddox and the others to investigate what had taken place

Inside the hospital room, Johnathan sat silently by the bed, clutching Sierra’s hand tightly as he waited for her to wake up

No one dared disturb him. Johnathan had no idea how long he’d been sitting there

Meanwhile, Maddox and the others had made no progress Maddox personally checked the backgrounds of every guest and staff member from that day, but nothing suspicious turned

up 

The hospital report finally came back, confirming drug traces in Sierra’s system. But Johnathan wasn’t a specialist, and all he understood from the doctor’s explanation was that the drug levels in her blood were alarmingly high. The hospital lacked the means to analyze it thoroughly

Even Draven didn’t know how to break it to Johnathan, so after some thought, he reluctantly pulled up Autumn’s number.” 

His last conversation with Autumn had ended badly. She used to respect him, but his volatile temper had shattered that. So when she picked up, her tone was far from friendly

Upon hearing what he needed, she was surprised. Why don’t you ask Sierra 

She knew he and Sierra were close

But then it clicked. Waitdid something happen to her?” 

Just analyze 

Just analyze the sample. Don’t ask questions,” Draven replied

Autumn was furious. She wanted to tell him to go to hellbut concern for Sierra won out. She grudgingly agreed to help

Half an hour later, she called back

Where the hell did you get that drug?she demanded

Start with the analysis, Draven said calmly. 

With a huff, Autumn launched into her findings

There are three main compounds in the sample. One induces hallucinations and drowsiness. One triggers an extreme adrenaline spike, making the person lose all control. And the third creates dependency.” 

Don’t even ask how these three coexistI’m wondering the same thing” 

The first two effectsdrowsiness and adrenaline overloadshould have been mutually exclusive, yet somehow, they were working together

Draven’s face turned grim as he listened. Autumn wasn’t done

Sierra’s the one who was drugged, isn’t she?” 

Before she could get an answer, the call cut off. Autumn stared at her phone, halflaughing from disbelief

He and divard Jusical

Chapter 340 Too Late 

Finished 

If such a compound existed, the authorities would’ve cracked down on it immediatelyand no one knew that better than 

him

Who would do this?” 

Quinn’s voice was filled with anger. Why would they?” 

No one responded. Their faces were tight with unease. No one knew how to break the news to Johnathanespecially Maddox, who was overwhelmed with guilt. If not for his party, this never would’ve happened

While they all brooded in silence, Sierra finally woke up

Her eyes fluttered open to a white ceiling. As her awareness returned, her body tensed with alertness. She instinctively curled her hands into fistsonly to realize her hand was being tightly held

Don’t move. It’s me, Johnathan.” 

His low, soothing voice reached her ears, but her guard didn’t drop

She wondered if this was still another hallucination

Earlier, she had mistaken someone else for Johnathan. She had let that person do whatever he wantedalmost. If he hadn’t been so rough, so unlike the real Johnathan, she might have been completely fooled

She moved to pinch herself, but Johnathan held her hand firmly

Don’t hurt yourself. It’s really me.” 

Sierra, I’m here.” 

I’m sorryI was too late.” 

Sierra stared at him for a long time, finally convinced this wasn’t a trick. This was Johnathan

Johnathan?she called softly

I’m here.he answered

Johnathan.she said again, her voice cracking 

I’m here, Sierra. I’m right here.” 

This time. Sierra couldn’t hold back anymore. She threw her arms around him and whispered, Why.. why did it take you so long to get here?”
