Chapter 702: Chapter 699: I Want to Kill Someone Right Now

Cedric Grant noticed that ever since the sleazy man kneeling before Marcus Jarvis had appeared, not only was Jean Jarvis acting strangely, but now even Chloe Grant seemed nervous. He couldn’t help but frown and ask, "What’s wrong with you two?"

As he spoke, he glanced back and forth between the man, his wife, and his daughter. "Do you know that man?"

"That’s impossible!" The words were barely out of his mouth when Jean Jarvis immediately overreacted, denying it. "How could we possibly know someone like that?"

Cedric Grant was skeptical, but he wasn’t in the mood to press them, because he had just heard the man mention the kidnapping of Skylar Hayes.

From the moment Skylar Hayes was abducted to the moment she was found after the ransom was paid, he had never once laid eyes on the kidnappers. He never imagined he would finally see one more than twenty years later.

Cedric Grant was instantly enraged. ’This animal... he violated my woman and made me raise his daughter for over twenty years for nothing!’

He started toward Adam Warren, but just as he was about to reach him, a figure flashed past and lunged at the man.

Cedric Grant looked closely and saw that it was Skylar Hayes.

After seeing Adam Warren, Skylar Hayes had frozen for a moment before she snapped to her senses and lunged at him.

Skylar Hayes’s hands trembled uncontrollably as she gripped Adam Warren’s collar, her eyes blazing with a fury that threatened to erupt.

’At this moment, what did elegance and composure matter? What did being cultured and proper matter? If she could, she would kill this animal!’

"It’s you. You bastard, why did you do this to me all those years ago?"

When Adam Warren was brought in, two men held his head down, one on each side. He had walked to Marcus Jarvis with his head bowed, so he hadn’t seen how many people were in the large room.

Now, someone had suddenly grabbed him by the collar, and he jumped in fright.

He whipped his head around and saw Skylar Hayes. Only then did he realize that the living room was filled with other people.

Adam Warren was stunned. ’Are they planning to put me on trial in front of everyone?’

Skylar Hayes continued, her voice full of hatred, "Why did you do this to me? Why! After you kidnapped me, they agreed to give you the money, didn’t they? You kidnapped me for money, wasn’t that it? They promised you the money, so why did you still...

"Do you have any idea how much suffering you’ve caused me? For a while after it happened, I had nightmares almost every single day. Even now, I’m constantly woken up by them!

"You animal! Today... today you owe me justice! Why did you do this to me? Why!"

As she spoke, tears streamed from Skylar Hayes’s eyes. She was a desolate and tragic sight.

Everyone watching couldn’t help but feel a surge of sympathy for her.

Marcus Jarvis reached out, pulled her up, and gathered her into a tight embrace, gently patting her shoulder. "It’s okay, it’s okay, Skylar," he soothed. "Calm down, just calm down."

The moment Skylar Hayes lunged at Adam Warren, Clara Grant and Seth Quinn had both rushed forward in concern.

After hearing Skylar Hayes’s accusations against Adam Warren, Clara Grant clenched her fists and pursed her lips, her gaze fixed on him. "So you’re the one who hurt my mom back then?"

Having spoken, she straightened her spine and looked down at the kneeling man, but her next words were for Seth Quinn. "Seth, if I told you I wanted to kill someone right now, what would you do?"
