Chapter 491 I Am Not Happy at All

When Clara arrived home, she found Tomas stayed at home.

He sat on the couch, looking at Clara, “Didn’t you have dinner?”

“I had,” Clara put her handbag down, sat on the couch, and stretched lazily, “As soon as I’d finished
eating, I went home.”

Tomas looked at her, “Didn’t you have Japanese cuisine?”

“Oh,” Clara answered, “No, I didn’t. I asked Marshall before I had dinner. Marshall and his friends did
not want to go there, so we had dinner together at the original place.

Clara pretended like she could not understand what Tomas implied, “What’s the matter? Is it a
wrenching problem?”

“It doesn’t matter.” Tomas said. Then he stopped talking.

Reclining on the couch, Clara looked as if she got a little bit tired out.

Tomas looked at her and said, “If you feel tired, to have a rest. It’s been a busy day for you.”

“Yep,” Clara answered and stood up.

Before she reached the stairs, Jakub returned home. It seemed that he was not in a good state. He
threw his schoolbag on the couch as soon as he came into the living room.

Clara stopped walking, “What’s up, Jakub?”

“Annoying,” Jakub said and collapsed into the couch.



It seemed that Tomas knew what had happened to Jakub. He turned around and looked at Jakub, “Are
you tired? If you feel tired, go upstairs to have a rest first.”

Jakub was nearly seventeen years old, and it seemed that he developed a sense of rebellion.

“No, I won’t take a rest. I will not finish my homework if I take a rest, and I will be scolded by you
afterwards.”

Tomas frowned, “Why I scolded you was all because you are lack of the desire to advance. Although
your sister and I are in control of the business now, you should know that the company will be handed
over to you. The future of our business will depend on you.”

Jakub seemed unwilling to listen to what Tomas talked about. He snorted, “Why should you rely on
me? If I refuse to take over the company, will it collapse?”

“Nonsense,” Tomas jumped to his feet.

Jakub stood up, without making a concession. “Don’t you remember that you have said that Clara will
have a very capable husband and you will let the couple to support me? Since the man is very capable,
wouldn’t it be better handing over the company to them? I don’t want to inherit the business at all. I
haven’t finished my projects at school yet. However, I have to listen carefully to your recount about the
state of operations of your company every day! I even cannot have a holiday. While other students
taking vacations, I spent all my time on extra tutoring.”

When he finished the argument, Jakub panted and said, “I am not happy at all. Keep the company as
yours. I don’t want it. I shall never think about to own it.”

With silent lips, Clara intended to calm Jakub down. Nevertheless, she did nothing when she heard his
words.



She understood it so well that Jakub was tired indeed. He was even more tired than her.

Adults could have their own space. By contrast, Jakub had a very busy schedule made by Tomas.

Tomas raged at Jakub. To her memory, Clara had never seen Tomas lost his temper before. To her
surprise, Tomas gave Jakub a slap right away and shouted, “That’s complete and utter nonsense. How
dare you?”

Jakub’s head was deflected by the slap. Jakub was terrified and hurried up to persuade Tomas, “What
are you doing, dad?”

Tomas looked at Jakub, without cooling down. “Go upstairs. You’ll know what will happen if you say you
don’t want to inherit the business again.”

Clara pulled Jakub along, “Let’s go upstairs, Jakub. Aren’t you tired? Let’s go upstairs to have a good
rest.”

Slowly, Jakub looked up. He stared at Tomas for a while and then he followed Clara to go upstairs.

Clara took Jakub to the room. She wanted to let him to have a good relax.

But she did not know how to comfort Jakub.

She had experienced the hard time when she was at the same age as Jakub.

She knew he had to study hard every day as she did in the past.

Born in a family like theirs meant Jakub and she needed to take on much responsibility other than just
enjoy a rich life.

Jakub would work for Henderson’s company in the future, so there were so many things for him to
learn.



Clara looked at him, “Jacub, I know it isn’t easy for you. But we cannot change it. You’ll be fine after
you cope with it.”

Sitting on the bed, Jacub did not reply.

Clara thought it over and turned on her heel to leave the room. When she was at the door, Jakub
called, “Clara.”

“Uh,” Clara answered, “What’s up?”

Jakub looked up at her, “Do you feel happy to live here?”

Clara lost her words suddenly.

Did she feel happy? No, she was unhappy.

After she had dinner, Clara kept thinking on her way home. She thought about what else she still
possessed. It seemed that she had nothing at all.

Marshall said the days would become dreadful if she successfully forced him to live with her.

She thought whether she would attract Marshall into her life if she had a lively and unconcerned
personality like Katherine Jordan.

It must be because she lacked special features, so Marshall could not fell in love with her. She was too
mild.

Clara looked at Jakub. She had been thoughtful for some time. Then she said, “I am not happy. To tell
the truth, I am not happy at all. But Jakub, I can do nothing.”

Jakub never spoke again.



So Clara opened the door and came out.

She stood at the door, had been thoughtful for a while and went to the stairs.

Tomas was too angry to calm down. He sat on the couch to relieve his rage.

Then he took his cellphone out and made a call.

When he got through, he uttered, “Called them return back. They are not there. No need to wait for
them.”

Tomas hung up the phone after he finished talking.

Clara stood expressionless, leaning against the wall.

Marshall and Katherine Jordan lied down to have a rest after they finished washing. Katherine Jordan
could sleep immediately once she went to bed at that time.

When she just closed her eyes, she heard Marshall’s cellphone was ringing.

Marshall pulled out his cellphone and looked at it. Then he sat up and answered the call directly,
“What’s the matter?”

It was Peter Richardson who made the call. Peter Richardson muffled his voice, “Husky told me that he
saw a boss of the bank. It is said that the boss comes there to audit regularly. At present Husky takes
charge of the detailed account of receipts. So the boss showed up.”

“Well,” Marshall answered, “Can Husky remember the boss’s face?”

“He can remember. Ask him to come out, and we can work together to copy the appearance of this
guy.”



“Okay,” Marshall said, “You can arrange it on your end. Just reported to me if there is any emergency.”

The call ended and Marshall put the phone down slowly.

Afterwards, he frowned involuntarily.

They knew who the genuine boss was. The boss who was seen by Husky must be a puppet.

Some people worked as the backroom operators. The performance was directed by another group of
people.

If he could uncover one of them, he must have made a good progress.

Katherine Jordan had her back towards Marshall. It looked like she’s asleep.”

Marshall reached out his hand to touch her head.

She would promise to remarry if he settled all of the problems, he thought.

Marshall lied down slowly. He found it was a little difficult for him to fell asleep.

He recalled that the person who took Clara to the hospital was the one who around Tomas.

It might be the conversation between Clara and he reminded him of that person.

The person around Tomas…

Marshall had an idea….

Katherine Jordan slept soundly at night. She slept till dawn.

Marshall did not go out. He was still by her side. He was editing messages, lying against the
headboard.



Katherine Jordan rolled over to face him, “What’s the time? Why are you still here?”

Marshall looked down at her, “Are you awake? It’s still early. You can get up later. You have enough
time. ”

Katherine Jordan glanced up Marshall’s cellphone and said, “Who are you texting? You look so
serious.”

Marshall looked at the cellphone and said, “My subordinate sent messages to me to talk about
something.”
