Her silence was tantamount to a confession.
"Jean Grant, speak!" he said, staring at her with a cold, severe tone. "Tell me, are you really a child of the Grant family? Say something, do you hear me?"
Jean Grant just kept her head down, utterly silent.
"Have you considered how Mom and Dad would feel? How I would feel? Jean, you're six months away from graduating college. It's not too late to turn back now. If she dies, Ethan Ellsworth will die too. Jean, please, spare Ethan. Tell me, where did you take Chloe Marshall?"
She suddenly looked up, tears streaming down her face. "I didn't want to kill her. I just wanted to make her go far away from Ethan Ellsworth and never come back."
Quentin Grant pressed on. "Where did they take her?"
"She should still be at sea. They were heading due south." Upon hearing this, the police immediately deployed their rescue teams to search the southern waters.
Ethan Ellsworth even went to search for her himself.
