My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 498

Emily Blair refused flat out.

That day was probably the first time Tristan Davis had ever crossed paths with Andrew Lane. Yet even at their very first meeting, Tristan practically lost his mind. His comments were biting, sarcastic, and no one could tell what exactly about Andrew Lane had set him off.

If Emily actually brought Tristan along, she half-suspected Tristan would blow the roof off the Lane family estate before the day was done.

Elizabeth Wilson frowned in confusion. “Why not bring Tristan? Isn’t he supposed to be working for you this month anyway? Just take him. If you need anything, have him help out.”

Emily let out a few exasperated clicks of her tongue. “You have no idea. Whenever Tristan sees Andrew Lane, he goes off the rails and starts spouting nonsense. I can never figure out what he’s trying to do.”

“What kind of nonsense?” Elizabeth’s eyes lit up, curiosity piqued.

Emily, half-distracted by her phone, muttered, “He keeps going on about how Andrew Lane and Isabella Austin’s anniversary is coming up soon, telling me to buy them gifts and all that, saying it in this weirdly snarky way. Honestly, it’s like he has some kind of grudge against Andrew.”

Elizabeth didn’t need any more clues; Tristan’s feelings were painfully obvious to her.

She barely stifled a laugh. “Of course he has a grudge.”

Emily finally looked up from her screen, surprised. “You know?”

Elizabeth grinned mischievously. “Don’t you?”

Emily was genuinely puzzled. “No, what grudge do they have?”

Elizabeth couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

Emily frowned, thoroughly mystified. “What’s so funny? Why are you laughing?”

Elizabeth struggled to compose herself, then patted Emily’s shoulder. “Nothing. Just ask Tristan yourself. I wouldn’t dare spill it—he’d kill me if I did.”

Emily eyed her warily. “What are you two scheming this time?”

Elizabeth just smirked. “All I’m saying is, you should take Tristan with you.”

Emily considered for a moment. “Give me a few good reasons why I absolutely have to.”
