Something about seeing Jade standing there in her pajama bottoms and looking so upset compelled me to let her in. I was still angry because of everything that had happened, but I calmed myself enough to listen. She had made an effort to come to me so late, and the least I could do was listen.
"Where's Robin?" I asked as we sat.
"Home with Tammie," she replied, wrapping her arms around herself.
I grabbed the remote and turned up the temperature.
"What my father did was inexcusable," she began. "And I'm sorry you were all caught up in that."
I didn't understand why anyone would call someone they didn't even know to ask for money; it didn't make sense to me. There was no way he would have my phone number unless Jade had given it to him. It still didn't add up, so I had to ask.
