My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 620

Emily Blair said quietly, “You trust me, so I can’t betray that trust.”

“I’m just glad I didn’t let you down. This time, Ryan Cox won’t be getting away.”

Her voice was calm, yet there was a quiet strength about her—something that made it impossible not to believe her.

“You’ve already been so brave. Give yourself a little more credit,” she added gently.

Donna Thomas covered her mouth, struggling to hold back her tears, but soon her quiet sobs grew louder.

Before leaving, Emily placed a comforting hand on Donna’s shoulder. “Get some rest. I’ll be waiting for you to come back to work, and so will your colleagues.”

After leaving Donna’s apartment, Emily headed once again to Rose Ward’s café.

Between the chaos with Ryan Cox and the company, she hadn’t had a spare moment to visit Rose’s place lately.

As she walked in, the first thing she noticed was the grand piano in the corner.

Seated at the bench was a slender woman in a pristine white dress. Her elegant posture and striking poise made her impossible to ignore.

The music flowing from her fingers was both gentle and masterful.

Narrowing her eyes, Emily slipped into a seat tucked away in the corner, the high back of the chair shielding her from view. From the piano bench, no one could see her face.

As the final notes faded, Rose Ward emerged from the kitchen.

“Ms. Austin, what brings you here today?” Rose’s voice, usually warm and welcoming, was tinged with anxiety.

Isabella Austin’s reply was as soft as velvet. “Rose, it’s only been two months and you already have your own café—and a lovely piano. It seems you’re doing well.”

Rose kept her voice low. “Ms. Austin, if you have something to say, please get to the point. I can’t have you lingering here.”
