Joshua Clarke's expression changed, as these words matched what Cindy had said before.
When he and Christy Xenos first met Cindy in Belfard, she told them about being schemed against by Christy and Wendy.
But she also said that she did not let Mr. Lopez have his way.
In the midst of the chaos, Cindy ran away.
Joshua believed her at the time.
However, later on, Wendy analyzed a lot and thought that Cindy had not actually escaped.
She just didn't want others to know about that past.
It was understandable since it was not an honorable matter and was very disgraceful.
But Joshua was still swayed by Wendy's words, feeling that she made sense as well.
But now, he heard Mr. Lopez saying something similar to what Cindy had said.
It was just slightly different from what Cindy had told them at the time.
Cindy said she had injured Mr. Lopez and then ran away.
However, from what Mrs. Lopez just said, Cindy was sent to the wrong room by mistake.
