My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 839

As soon as the words left her lips, she grabbed the nearest throw pillow and hurled it straight at Tristan Davis’s face.

He caught it easily—despite being struck, a satisfied, delighted grin spread across his face, as if he’d just received a wonderful present.

Emily Blair couldn’t even look at him; she squeezed her eyes shut instead.

But the moment her eyelids closed, Tristan’s unrestrained laughter echoed through the car.

Emily had no plans for the weekend, so she told the driver to take her straight home.

As they neared her building, Tristan’s phone rang.

She glanced over and saw him smirk at the name flashing on the screen.

Tristan answered, “Back in town?”

Emily turned away, listening to Tristan banter with the caller in a familiar, easy tone.

Her gaze dropped, lips pressed into a tense line.

Tristan sounded relaxed. “Alright, I’ll head over now. Wait for me.”

He hung up just as the car pulled up to the entrance of her block.

Emily told the driver to stop at the curb, then turned to Tristan. “You heading there on your own, or do you want the driver to drop you off?”

He slipped his phone into his pocket. “I’ll go myself—see you later.”

She nodded. “Alright, goodbye.”

Tristan shut the door behind him. Emily watched as he flagged down a passing cab at the corner.
