Sallie's POV
Billy's casual comment had stuck with him for some reason, and he'd actually gone ahead and made that call himself.
Now regret consumed him completely. "If I'd had any clue what would happen next, I never would've picked up that phone," he said. "Should've just waited till he got back home."
He understood his call had triggered the crash that took someone's life, but he had no clue Todd and I were caught up in it because of his actions.
I didn't bother explaining anything. Once I got the answers I needed, Todd and I headed out. Even though I was certain Jill orchestrated Johan's accident, too many pieces still didn't fit.
My mind raced. 'Johan's location was classified—how did Jill pinpoint exactly when he'd return to Stormhaven? And how could she nail down the precise moment he'd hit that stretch of road?
