Chapter 1486 Emily Is Missing

"We should go right now. I feel perfectly fine. Besides, I need to tell Jacob about this as soon as
possible."

As Emily spoke, she took her bag and was ready to walk out of the door. Taylor felt helpless at that
moment, since she knew there was no chance of stopping her. As a result, she agreed to go with her.

As soon as they walked out of Emily's office, both of them noticed that there was an indescribable
aroma in the air. However, they had no clue where it came from.

After walking just a few steps, they suddenly collapsed to the ground and were left completely
unconscious. Anyone who happened to come across them could easily take advantage of these
gorgeous women.

However, a man sitting on a chair near them didn't seem to be interested in doing so.

This mysterious man had a frigid presence around him. He simply looked at Taylor and Emily like
nothing had happened. He was more focused on enjoying his cigarette and puffing out smoke rings
until the end.

When he was finished, he threw the cigarette butt on the floor. As soon as it touched the ground, a
hissing sound came from nowhere. This caused the whole room to have a deafening silence to it. A few
moments later, some men arrived and took the two women to an unknown location.

"What are you waiting for? Don't just stand there!"

Darren furiously exclaimed at Jonas since he was so upset with him. It was clear that he had had
enough of Jonas's repeated failure.

There was still a bit of dried-up blood on Jonas's forehead. However, he knew it wasn't the time to
clean it up since Darren was already in a bad mood. He quickly approached Emily's and Taylor's



lifeless bodies to appease Darren and began the procedure.

He squatted down and looked at their faces. Since Jonas had his back turned, Darren couldn't see how
determined Jonas was at that moment. Hence, he shouted at him once again, "Go faster! You know
what to do!"

When Jonas heard the anger in his voice, he immediately began to hypnotize Emily and Taylor. His
intention was to make them forget everything that had happened earlier that day.

About half an hour later, Jonas looked a little tired. He got up slowly and walked towards Darren. Then,
he said, "Everything's done. When they wake up, they won't have any clue what happened to them."

It was not until that moment that Darren was able to have a smile on his face.

"Well, I hope what you're saying is true. I don't want you to let me down again. Otherwise, you'll have to
face the consequences."

Darren stood up and left the moment he finished speaking. His men quickly followed him outside.
Jonas could only watch Darren's back while he walked away.

Jonas was so upset about Darren's lack of appreciation for his work that he clenched his fists in anger.
Unfortunately, he had no other choice but to follow orders.

At the thought of this, he meekly followed them with his head down. His eyes were focused on Emily
while she was being taken away by Darren's men.

Although he had been manipulating Emily up to that point, he still felt sorry for her. After all, she had
given him her trust and treated him kindly since the moment they had met.

"Emily, I'll make sure your trust doesn't go to waste,"



Jonas softly murmured to himself right before catching up with Darren.

A few hours later, Taylor opened her eyes and found herself lying down on a bench at a park. The fact
that she couldn't remember how she had gotten there made her feel a little disoriented.

"Emily?"

A few seconds later, Emily gradually woke up. The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was
the confused look on Taylor's face. She was utterly surprised when she realized where they were.

"Why am I here?"

With the thought that something bad might've happened to her, she quickly checked if she was still
decent. When she saw that her clothes were intact, all her worries disappeared.

Emily let out a sigh of relief, but Taylor was still wondering how they had gotten there. Additionally, she
had no memories of what had happened in the past few hours.

"It's so strange. Why are we here?" Emily asked again with a confused look on her face. She looked
towards Taylor for answers, but it didn't seem like she had any. After looking around at her
surroundings, Emily realized that she was just a few minutes away from her office.

'Did I forget something because I'm too tired? Even if that was true, why did I choose to sleep on a
bench?' she asked herself in her mind.

Finally, Taylor opened her mouth and responded, "I don't know why we're here. How did the two of
us..."

Taylor almost had the exact same look on her face as Emily did. She shook her head to try and clear
up her mind, but it was to no avail.



The last thing she remembered was a feeling of drowsiness. As a result, she had the same conclusion
as Emily —that she was so tired that she had forgotten everything.

At the thought of this, Taylor didn't bother to worry about what had happened to them anymore.
Instead, she told Emily about the last thing she could remember.

"By the way, Emily, I came here to ask something from you. I just can't..."

All of a sudden, Taylor's mind started to clear up. She actually wanted to ask Emily for a favor.

Emily looked at Taylor with curious eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I'm going to go on a business trip for a few days. I came here to ask you if Amy could stay with you for
a few days. If she's with you in Tyrone Mansion, I know she'll be safe."

Taylor had no guarantee whether Emily would agree to her request or not. Unfortunately, Emily was the
only person she could ask for help. There was no chance she was going to ask Louis for help at all.

Being met with silence, Taylor had it in her head that Emily was going to say no. For that reason, she
started to get anxious and added, "Emily, if I'm asking you for too much, I won't mind if you say no."

At that moment, Taylor had a sorrowful expression on her face. But in fact, Emily wasn't able to
respond because she was still in a daze. When she finally came to her senses, she answered, "No, I
don't mind at all. I would love to take care of Amy. So when will you leave?"

Upon realizing that she had a silly look on her face, Emily took a deep breath and tried her best to
seem normal. However, she had nothing to worry about since Taylor understood that it was hard to
think properly given the situation they were in.

"Hey, I'm just wondering, why didn't you go to my brother for help?"



At the mention of Louis's name, the look on Taylor's face changed. She suddenly became sullen and ill-
tempered.

At that moment, Emily was absolutely clueless about what had happened between Taylor and Louis.
But when she noticed the change in Taylor's reaction, it started to become a bit clearer for her. Since
Emily didn't want to upset Taylor, she quickly changed the topic.

"Anyway, even if you asked me if Amy could stay in the mansion for a year, I would gladly accept.
Heck, if you want to live with me, I'll be okay with that as well."

While they were speaking with each other, the questions they had had in their minds earlier gradually
faded away.

Taylor was starting to smile, but when she thought of Louis, she couldn't help but feel a little irritated.

"Are you sure looking after another child won't bother you?"

Taylor asked again since she felt a little guilty. She knew Emily was the kind of person who would never
say no to her friends.

Meanwhile, the bodyguards that Jacob had dispatched to protect Emily were in a scurry.

It was time for Emily to come home from work, but they couldn't find her anywhere.

All of them were flustered and could only ask each other. "Where is she? Did something happen to
her?"

They had been watching her from afar. The only person they had seen entering Emily's office was
Taylor.



"Stop worrying for a moment. Let's just wait and see. Maybe they're having so much fun talking to each
other that they forgot what time it is,"

one of the bodyguards confidently said. Jacob gave strict orders to not let Emily know she was being
watched. If they were to go into her office, Jacob would surely get furious.

As time passed by, the worry in their minds grew. When it was already time for them to go off duty,
everybody started to panic.

"There must be something wrong!"

Several bodyguards ran to Emily's office like their lives were at stake. When they opened the door, their
worst fears were confirmed. They had no clue where Emily actually was.

"Mr. Gu, I'm sorry to say this, but she's missing."

"What?" Jacob couldn't believe what he had just heard. He immediately stood up from the chair, and
his heart started to tremble. He gripped his phone tightly and asked for more information.

After listening to his men's report, Jacob was left puzzled. The horrifying thought that Emily might be in
danger started to fill his mind.

"Well, have you started to look for her?"

After he heard Jacob's harsh words, the bodyguard's body started to shake. It was like he was having a
panic attack. He knew it was entirely their fault if something bad were to happen to Emily.
