My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 1275

It was supposed to bring some peace to both him and Isabella.

Benjamin decided it was time to reach out to Andrew Lane.

When Andrew got the message, his team was still digging for answers. They’d just started to find some real leads. He glanced at his phone, spotting a number he didn’t recognize.

[Andrew Lane, it’s been a while. Honestly, I’ve never seen you this desperate over a woman before.]

Andrew’s eyes flickered.

[Benjamin Gomez.]

He shot the reply back, then handed his phone to the scarred man at his side, just like Tristan Davis had done earlier. “Trace the number. Now.”

The guy didn’t say a word. He just took the phone, plugged in a data cable, and handed it back without even looking up.

“Mr. Lane, keep him talking. The more messages he sends, the easier it’ll be to nail down his IP.”

“Understood.” Andrew took the phone back.

A new message popped up.

[It’s me. I’ve been keeping my distance these past few years, didn’t dare see you. But now, we’re finally sitting down, just the two of us. This is the last time, though.]

Andrew didn’t bother with small talk.

[What do you want? What will it take for you to let her go?]

Unknown Number: [You care about Emily Blair that much?]

[So you really are that into Emily Blair?]

Andrew: [Just tell me what you want. What’s it going to take for you to let her go?]

Benjamin snorted. Right then, a message from Tristan Davis landed in his inbox. It was a video.

He watched it quickly, thirty minutes of Tristan Davis kneeling on the ground. The sight made Benjamin feel a twisted sense of satisfaction.

Suddenly, an idea came to him. He switched back to his chat with Andrew and typed out a message.

[Then you get on your knees for half an hour. Send me a video.]

He hit send, feeling certain that Andrew Lane was more stubborn than Tristan Davis. There was no way he’d agree to something like that, not without a fight.
