Chapter 496 I Am Just A Useless Rubbish

Jack tried to cover his eyes in the dream, since he did not want to see the face of the corpse. But he
was just fooling himself. A spell was put on him, so that he could not move his body.

So he saw the person lying on the ground.

It was Emily, who had lost her last breath already but with her eyes wide open. Her face and mouth
were covered with blood and her expression was slightly distorted, as if she had suffered a great deal
before she died.

The scene stung Jack's eyes. He roared in agony, "Emily!"

Jack finally woke up from the nightmare. His forehead was full of cold sweat, which flowed down his
cheeks as he sprung up all of a sudden. His pajamas were already wet because of his sweat. He
looked like he'd just been pulled out of the water.

His heart was still pounding in his chest, as if the it would jump out any second. He breathed rapidly,
trying to calm himself. He took a long deep breath, and slowly exhaled a mouthful of stale air.

After a few minutes, Jack slowly recovered and became sober.

Outside, the sky was overcast and gloomy.

Jack opened the light and walked to the bathroom. He saw himself in the mirror, and he just looked like
a ghost.

Under his pair of bloodshot eyes was the color of dark black because of the bad sleep he had been
having for some time now. His skin had no luster and his handsome face was sunken down, thin.

Even his hair was messy. Since he was in no mood to care for it, it had grown very long.



These days, he lived like a soulless walking dead. The only thing that made him felt alive was the
determination in his heart, the determination to find Emily back.

Where was she?

He just wanted to know whether she was alive or not. Her health was so poor that she couldn't stand
much travels. 'Magee took her away regardless of her health! Son of a bitch!

It was like pushing Emily into danger!'

"Emily, I know I am wrong..." Jack murmured in the reflection of the mirror, "As long as you come back,
I will never force you again in the future. As long as I can look at you..."

Even looking at her had become a luxury now.

Jack was sending out the breath of decadent all over his body. He walked out of the toilet heavily. After
he went out of his room, he came to the room that Emily once lived in.

He had come here several times.

All the furniture was the same, the maid came up every day to clean it as if the owner of this room were
still living there.

Lying on Emily's bed, Jack could smell her scent which was left behind. His heart was broken.

There were traces of her existence everywhere in this house, and even a little bit of pain was too much
for him to handle. But he was reluctant to leave, guarding the house like a masochist and guarding the
memories between them.

Some time later, there was a knock at the door.



Jack ignored the knock, so that the people had to open the door. But before his foot stepped in, a cup
hit over him, "Go away!"

"Mr. Jack!" It was the most capable man of Jack's. Seeing that Jack was at a rage, he stepped
backward immediately.

Jack's voice was angry. "Get out!"

The man gritted his teeth, but eventually he had to bite the bullet. "Mr. Jack, the whole company is
waiting for you. Mr. Gu has been disappointed with you. Please take your position seriously..."

As if he didn't know where he was now, Jack asked the question he was most concerned about. "Then
what about Emily? Have you heard anything about her?"

When his man heard his words, he looked weak and embarrassed. "Sorry, Mr. Jack. We haven't heard
anything about Miss Emily."

"Useless Rubbish." Jack looked exasperated, but then he became dejected. "So am I. I am also a
useless rubbish."

How else could he find her?

"No, Mr. Jack. You are not." Seeing how his boss had turned out, his heart felt sour, "I believe we will
find Miss Emily soon. But before this, you must cheer up!"

"Soon? How long will it take? A month? Half a year? Ten years? Do you think I will never see her for
the rest of my life?"

"Mr. Jack. That's not true..."



Jack took a look at the man with a sad face, and he suddenly formed a self-deprecating smile, "Forget
it. I shouldn't have troubled you. I lost her. I am too useless to even keep a woman by my side."

"Mr. Jack..."

"I know what I'm doing. Now leave me alone."

The man hesitated, but he decided to leave.

'Mr. Jack was so deeply in love with Miss Emily. As soon as she went missing, Mr. Jack had been so
depressed. What if we could never find her? What would happen to Mr. Jack?'

Jack picked up his mood and also picked up the pieces of glass on the ground before he left Emily's
room. Before leaving he gently closed the door.

As if someone was still sleeping inside. As if he didn't want to wake her up.

Jack cleaned himself up. Although he still looked tired and haggard, at least he didn't seem as
decadent as before.

He knew that he couldn't leave everything behind.

He still needed the power of the Gu Consortium, otherwise he wouldn't even have the power to find
Emily at all. As long as Mr. Gu was still in power, he was controlled by him.

Not only the Xu clan was after him, he also failed to block the news to the Lu clan. If they found out
what happened to Emily, they would hunt him down and his company would definitely be attacked!

He needed to recover right away!



Seeing that Jack already cleaned himself up, his man was relieved. He was glad that his master
decided to look at the bigger picture over a missing woman. If he gave up the Gu clan for a woman, Mr.
Gu might need to reconsider his successor.

Jack returned to his cold-blood president persona again, as if nothing was in his eyes. But before he
left through the garden, he suddenly stopped.

"Did she plant the flower?"

The maid who was taking care of the flowers froze for a moment, but then followed his gaze and
nodded quickly. "Yes, Mr. Jack. The flower had grown and even had a little bud on it. It might soon
bloom."

At this point, she stopped consciously, afraid of their own young master's grief.

Jack deeply looked at that potted flower. The flower was rare and special. It was the seed that he once
gave her, which was tough and vital just like she once used to be.

It grew and bloomed in winter, whose flower petals were as beautiful as pure crystal. It was so beautiful
that people couldn't bear to desecrate.

It was like Emily.

No matter how long it took, even though her character had changed, the kindness and innocence in her
heart would never change.
