My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 1190

When Amelia felt her phone buzzing in her pocket, her heart jumped. She hoped it was a message from Andrew. Pulling out her phone, she saw his name on the screen. For a second, she felt relieved. Then she read the message and her good mood vanished.

Andrew wrote, Take care of him. I’ll be back in a few days. I’ll talk to him then.

Not a single word about helping Isabella Austin. Not even a hint.

Amelia stared at the message, frustration bubbling up inside her. She started typing furiously.

A few days? Dennis’s hand is so swollen it’s hard to even look at. You’re not coming back right now? Did you forget you’re his father? Or has Emily Blair taken over your whole life so nothing else matters?

Andrew replied almost instantly. Watch yourself. I have people telling me what’s happening at home. I know your hands aren’t clean.

Amelia’s heart dropped. Her grip on the phone tightened. Just reading his words made her nerves spike. She realized she was crossing a line. With everything going on with Isabella, she had lost her usual caution. Normally, she would never dare talk to Andrew like this. She had never even raised her voice to him before, let alone accused him.

They were siblings, but there wasn’t much warmth between them. Andrew treated her like he treated everyone else, distant and cold, always professional. Over the years, he’d gotten harder to read, even with family. Amelia always carried a quiet fear of him, deep down.

His message snapped her back to reality. This wasn’t just anyone she was texting. This was Andrew Lane, the head of the Lane family, known for being sharp and ruthless, always in control.
