My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 1085

Isabella’s fingers curled tightly, her knuckles turning white as her face drained of color.

Emily spoke up, her tone sharp. “Isn’t it just a little too perfect? You just happened to save Benjamin Gomez’s daughter. You two know each other, and he was the one who took you to the hospital. Since his daughter got into that accident, I started watching Benjamin Gomez closely. Even when you were overseas, I had someone keeping tabs on him.”

“At first, you were always by his side, wearing a mask. I couldn’t think of anyone else who could stay that close to him and still need to hide her face. It had to be you. That’s when I first suspected you were Isabella Austin. Then, after you took off your mask and I saw your face, I actually doubted myself for a while. You looked completely different, like a different person.”

“But I couldn’t let it go. I decided to look into the women around Benjamin Gomez anyway. I got close to you on purpose, watched you carefully,” Emily said, her eyes never leaving Isabella’s. “Why don’t you guess what finally convinced me Juliana Silva was actually Isabella Austin?”

Isabella’s jaw tightened. “Just spit it out.”

Emily leaned back a little. “It all started with your family background. Honestly, that’s the main reason I’m here today.”

Isabella’s eyes flickered with wariness. “What do you know about my family?”

Emily’s gaze was steady. “I know you’re not your parents’ biological daughter. I know who your real parents are.”

Isabella’s whole expression shifted. She stared at Emily, her voice trembling. “How do you know that? How could you possibly know?”

“Does it really matter how I found out?” Emily replied. “What matters is that I know the truth about who you really are.”

Isabella forced herself to stay calm, her voice low. “Then say it.”
