Chapter 747: Chapter 744: I Will Avenge You Soon

Cedric Grant shot an awkward glance at Clara Grant across from him, then irritably interrupted the person on the phone. "Jean, are you crazy? What’s all this about me mistreating Chloe? She’s my daughter too. How could I possibly mistreat her? What’s there to worry about just because she went out? I’d be more worried if she never left the house!"

"Going out isn’t the problem, but why has her phone been unreachable?" Jean Jarvis, however, wasn’t so optimistic. Her eyelid had been twitching nonstop, and she had a terrible feeling in her gut, a premonition that something bad was about to happen.

Just then, a maid had called to tell her that Chloe had left the house looking rather strange. Jean’s heart had instantly leaped into her throat. Even though she didn’t know what terrible thing might happen, she couldn’t rest easy until she found her daughter.

"Maybe her phone died, or maybe she’s somewhere with bad reception. She’s a grown woman, what is there to worry about?" Cedric Grant remained unconcerned. "Alright, fine. I’ll give her a call later to check on her."

With that, he hung up without another word.

On the other end, Jean Jarvis furiously jabbed at her phone screen a few times to vent her frustration at being hung up on.

Then, she tried calling Chloe Grant’s phone again. To her surprise, it actually went through this time. A wave of relief washed over Jean, and she couldn’t help but hold her breath as she waited for Chloe to pick up.

Finally, just as the last ring was about to fade, the call was answered. Jean anxiously blurted out, "Chloe, where did you go? Why did it take you so long to answer? I was worried sick! Tell me, where are you right now?"

"Mom, you don’t need to worry. I’m fine," Chloe Grant’s voice came through, sounding strangely cold. "Rest assured, I’ll get revenge for you very soon!"

Jean froze for a second. "What revenge?"

The words had barely left her mouth when, before Chloe could reply, the realization hit her. She asked in alarm, "Chloe, you... you went to find Adam Warren?"

"Yes. I’m going to find him." Chloe’s voice seemed to grow agitated at the mention of Adam’s name.

"Chloe, listen to me. You can’t go after him. Please, just come home right now..."

"And why can’t I?" Chloe cut off her mother’s frantic pleas. "If it weren’t for him, I would have already ruined that bitch Clara Grant!

If it weren’t for him, Dad wouldn’t have kicked you out of the house! If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have ended up like this! This is all his fault, and I have to get my revenge!" ℯℯ𝑙.

"Chloe, listen to me, you won’t be able to find him. You..."

Jean’s words were cut off again. "I can find him! I may have been cooped up in my room all day for the past half-month, but I’ve been searching for him this whole time! Heh. And now, I’ve finally found where he’s hiding out!"

Chloe paused before adding, "I’m almost there. I’m hanging up now."

Jean flew into a panic. "Chloe, listen to me, you can’t go get revenge on him! He... Chloe? Chloe?..."

But Chloe had already hung up!

With trembling hands, Jean tried calling back, but her call was rejected.

Her lips trembled in panic as she mumbled a few unintelligible words to herself. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she frantically hailed a taxi. After getting in, she urgently gave the driver an address, adding, "Quickly, you have to hurry!"

The taxi then sped off.
