My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 1070

Emily sat propped up against the headboard, absentmindedly scrolling through her phone. “Did the nurse say when I can leave?”

Elizabeth got up. “Let me check. You seem pretty much back to normal.”

She was back in no time, a smile on her face. “You can go now.”

Emily didn’t waste a moment. She gathered her things and walked straight out of the hospital.

Just as she was leaving, she bumped into Andrew Lane’s assistant. He gave her a look like she’d broken his heart, but Emily couldn’t care less. She kept her head high and walked past him without saying a word.

At the same time, the police were scrambling. They’d already reached out to their contacts in Riven, who were now in touch with the Lane family.

Word traveled fast. It didn’t take long for the news to reach Kevin Lane and the rest of the family.

The bombshell? Isabella Austin might still be alive, and the police had actually managed to catch her again.

When Kevin Lane heard, he almost passed out. The family doctor had to step in just to keep him upright.

Kevin had always liked Isabella as a granddaughter-in-law. Still, after what she did, he was furious. He’d done everything he could to keep the scandal buried, keeping the media out of it. He thought that once Isabella was gone, the whole mess would disappear and the Lane family could move on quietly.

He never expected her to survive, get plastic surgery, and sneak back into the country with a new identity.

This time, Kevin realized, there was no way to keep the story hidden. He stopped the police from getting near Dennis Lane, refusing to let them confirm Isabella’s identity.

The Lane family was powerful in Riven, with deep roots and plenty of influence. The local police weren’t eager to push their luck.

So the investigation stalled, stuck at a standstill. Everything changed when Andrew Lane woke up.

The private nurse Emily had hired called her right away when Andrew opened his eyes.

Emily rushed over after work.

Andrew had been moved out of the ICU and into a quiet private room. When Emily walked in, only the nurse and Andrew’s assistant were there.
