Timothy didn't bother to say what would happen otherwise.

But Yates could tell-this time, Timothy really meant it.

He turned to Vince and said, "I warned you. If you'd just given me the address, I would've gone myself and brought her back."

Sallie looked at the three men in confusion. "What are you all talking about? Bring who back? What happened?"

Vince and Timothy exchanged glances, neither willing to break the silence.

No one answered Sallie's question.

Growing frustrated, Sallie glared at Timothy. "Timothy, I'm asking you-what on earth is going on?"

Timothy sat there, stone-faced and silent.

She stood abruptly and marched over to Vince, stepping between him and Timothy, forcing their eye contact apart. "If Timothy won't tell me, then you do!"

Sallie had a sinking feeling something serious was being kept from her— otherwise, why would Timothy have been in an accident?

But Timothy and Vince weren't about to let Sallie in on the truth. Sallie had never been fond of Jessica; if she found out this all stemmed from Jessica leaving, she'd blame her for everything.
