My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 519

Dennis Lane pouted, cheeks puffed out in annoyance as he glared menacingly at Emily Blair. “I don’t care what you say!”

Emily shot him a sidelong glance and replied coolly, “I don’t have time for this. I’m leaving.”

Just a brat, she thought. No need to rush—she could take her time.

Without another word, Emily strode off, leaving Andrew Lane and Dennis behind as she headed upstairs alone.

Seeing her go, Dennis’s eyes widened in outrage and he bolted after her. “No! You can’t go up there!”

Andrew Lane exchanged a look with the nearby housekeeper, who immediately caught on and placed a firm hand on Dennis’s shoulder. “Dennis, let’s listen to your father, okay? Let’s not go upstairs.”

Dennis started to struggle, but Andrew’s deep, commanding voice rumbled above him, heavy with authority. “Dennis Lane, you’re getting more and more out of line.”

Andrew’s gaze was so sharp that Isabella Austin felt a sudden wave of unease. She hurried over and wrapped her arms protectively around Dennis. “Alright, honey, listen to Dad. Don’t go making trouble, okay?”

Dennis turned away, sulking, deliberately presenting the back of his head to Andrew in protest.

Emily heard the commotion behind her but didn’t look back.

“Emily Blair, you’re still angry.”

Andrew had caught up to her without her noticing, his words low and close to her ear.

Emily’s voice was calm. “If you’re willing to sell me the rights to Black and White Rabbit, I’d have nothing left to be angry about.”

Andrew called her bluff. “You’re lying.”

She let out a soft laugh. “Well, if you think I’m lying, Mr. Lane, why not test me?”

Emily climbed the stairs, aware of Andrew’s shadow falling across her as he looked down at her.
