The next day, James Brown arrived at the company where the buzz about Sarah Utah's confession yesterday had not yet died down. The employees still joked about it when they saw him, and James Brown knew he owed Sarah an explanation.
As the end of the workday approached, James Brown finally called Sarah Utah. Even if he could not be with her, he couldn't ignore her after what happened today; it would be too hurtful. More importantly, he wanted to save Sarah's face—he didn't want her to become the laughingstock of the company.
James Brown's Porsche had been parked at the docks yesterday, and though Lucy Campbell had sent someone to retrieve it today, James Brown had not taken it back. Besides, the car belonged to Lucy Campbell; it was fine for him to drive it when she wasn't here, but naturally, it should be returned to her when she was.
