Chapter 739

Liam walked the walk. He gave the order that no one was allowed to bail Kaylee out.

Skyler played every contact she had, trying to get help from anywhere she could, but no one could spring Kaylee.

Even the cops wouldn’t let the family visit.

Skyler didn’t sleep a wink all night. First thing in the morning, she went to find Sienna.

Sienna knew what was up right off the bat. Liam figured Skyler would come begging, so he went to Sienna’s place the night before.

He laid it all out for Sienna, everything Kaylee had been up to over the years.

Sienna didn’t say a word for a long time after hearing it all.

When she found out what Liam was planning to do, Sienna said, “Let her taste some hardship. It’s for the best. I regret leaving Kaylee in her care.”

Worried that Skyler would come knocking, Sienna had split town the night before.

So Skyler couldn’t find Sienna, and she couldn’t get through to her, Mr. Robinson, or anyone else on the phone.

Skyler finally realized that the old lady really wasn’t going to help Kaylee out this time.

She left Sienna’s place, looking white as a sheet.

On her way, Janis called. “Skyler, what’s the word? Did Kaylee make bail?”
