Out of all the confusion one certainty emerged. Dale had asked her to help him, and she had said she would. She couldn´t go and see Mrs. Silver after all. She would have to go into Ledlington in the morning and ring her up. She needn´t give any reason. She need only say that she was sorry she could not come. Her thoughts went no father than that. She couldn´t go and see Miss Silver, because Dale asked her to help him and she had said yes. She couldn´t go and see Miss Silver because it might be hurting Dale. It - wouldn´t - help - him. It - might - harm - him.
Woman, just grow a backbone already!
It´s not a good sign that I constantly feel the need to shake the main character to her senses. Honestly, she is such a doormat.
