Sophie didn't know what Hurley was up to with these past two days.
She hadn't seen him since he left abruptly in the middle of the night
Isn't he concerned about his children? Is he really not afraid that she will take them away?
It was almost time for the holiday, and Sophie thought about taking her children to Andorra where they would spend the festivities there. She has been planning to introduce her grandfather to her two other children.
Although this will most likely expose Hurley, it would prevent her grandfather from pressuring her to marry Hurley again.
"Jake, Anabel, when you guys have a holiday, would you like Mommy to take you to Andorra?"
"Okay, okay!" Both children nodded in unison.
Damon told him about Andorra, which was a completely different city from the imperial capital, with beautiful mountains, clear waters, and spring-like weather all year round.
Damon also said that it was a nice place to visit. Facing the sea, there was not only a lot of delicious food in the sea, but also many activities to do on it.
There were many things that the two children had never seen before, and with Damon's stories, they were eager to see the place for themselves.
"How about your Dad? Has he called you in the past two days?" Sophie asked casually.
Jake shook his head. "No,"
"Mommy, Daddy used to call me often, even if he worked overtime or was on a business trip, but he didn't call me in the past two days," Jake was also slightly worried.
Sophie was puzzled. What's going on in Hurley? Why didn't he make a call with his son, even for a short minute?
What on earth is he busy with? Sophie doesn't even have a clue!
She hadn't heard of any major events happening in the company, and Hurley didn't even take away the files and computers when he left.
Could it be that he really encountered some big problem that even he couldn't solve?
Is the company really going to go bankrupt?
Did the shareholders take their money and run away?
No, It shouldn't be. That seemed unlikely.
She just heard Amy excitedly say a few days ago that Walton Group's dividend from last quarter has been paid out. Though she only has seven percent of the shares, her shares alone already cost countless zeros.
"It's okay. Mommy will take you and Anabel to find him," Sophie reassured them.
Sophie decided to go take a look. If there was anything she could do to help, she would naturally not stand idly by.
It happened that Hurley still had something at her place. Remembering this, Sophie grabbed the documents and had Jake carry the computer.
Both of them went to Walton Group's company together. Their car stopped at the entrance of the company. When the security guard saw the young master and the young lady, he naturally did not dare to stop them.
He saw this beautiful lady at the front desk last time. It seems that this woman has really won over the heart of the young master and the other child, and she is coming into the company as if she is the boss's wife.
Jake and the others went upstairs together and reached the top floor of the office building, which was Hurley's office.
Hurley is not here, and neither is his assistant, Chris.
"Mommy, Daddy doesn't seem to be here," Jake looked around.
Then he went to Hurley's desk, pressed the phone next to him, and was quickly connected to the secretary's office.
"Mr. Walton?" The other secretary's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I'm not Mr. Walton, I'm Jake. I want to ask if my dad is here?" Jake's voice was calm.
"Young Master, Mr. Walton has not been in the company for a long time," said the secretary on the other end of the phone.
Hurley had been away on a business trip with a backlog of work upon his return. Recently, despite his return, he hadn't been to the office, and all the documents were being sent to his home.
And in the past two days, he still has not come to the company.
"He's not at the company? What about Uncle Chris?" Sophie inquired.
"Mr. James went to meet a client," the secretary replied.
"Oh, okay," Jake hung up the phone, then turned to Sophie, concern evident in his eyes. "Mommy, Daddy isn't here.."
Because it was on speakerphone, Sophie also heard what the secretary just said, and she also felt a pang of worry.
Hurley had been absent from the company for days. Where could he possibly be? What secrets was he hiding?
"Why don't you give him a call, Jake?" Sophie suggested, her voice tinged with concern.
According to her understanding of Hurley, someone who is a workaholic like he does should not be neglecting his responsibilities.
The last time she went on a business trip, she thought that Hurley was on a business trip for work. Now it seems that this may not be the case.
Jake dialed Hurley's number. After a few rings, Hurley's voice came through. "Hello, Jake?"
"Daddy, where are you? Why haven't you come home these days?" Jake's voice quivered slightly. His father had always made it a point to come home, no matter how late he was working.
"Daddy is busy here," Hurley responded curtly.
"Where could you be so busy? Don't say you're at the company. We're here, and they said you haven't been in for days!"
There was a pause at the other end of the line.
Sophie reached for the phone, signaling for Jake to hand it over. "It's me, Sophie,"
"Hurley, what's going on?" Sophie got straight to the point. She didn't want to make any detours with Hurley.
"Something has been wrong since your last business trip. Do you always have to carry everything? Do you know that your children will also be worried about you?"
Hurley paused for a moment. "I'm in the hospital," He finally admitted.
Sophie's pupils widened. The last time Hurley went on a business trip, she saw Hurley in the hospital in the background.
Now, Hurley is in the hospital again?
Could it be that... Hurley had some incurable disease and he didn't dare to tell others, so he had to secretly go to the hospital for treatment.
"Hurley, you—" Sophie's voice trembled. She didn't want Jake to hear her, so she stepped outside. "When did this happen? What did the doctor say?"
There was another pause before Hurley spoke again
Sophie must have misunderstood things.
"The doctor told me to get a wife as soon as possible," Hurley joked, his voice hoarse.
"I'm being serious here, Hurley!" Sophie was in no mood to joke with Hurley right now.
If Hurley was really seriously ill, it wasn't like she couldn't help.
Before, she wanted a scumbag like Hurley to pay the price, but now, Sophie realized that she didn't really want anything to happen to Hurley.
If something happens to Hurley, what will happen to the children?
The other end of the phone paused, and Sophie could only hear Hurley's breathing.
After a while, Hurley's hoarse voice came.
"Sophie...I miss you,"
"Which hospital are you in?" she asked.
Hurley said the name of the hospital, and Sophie hung up the phone.
"Jake, Mommy needs to go out for a bit. Stay here and play. When I come back, we'll leave together. If I'm not here in time, go home with the driver,"
"Mommy, are you going to look for Daddy? Where is Daddy?"
"Daddy is outside, and Mommy will go and look for him, okay,"
"Okay, Mommy. Don't worry about us!"
Sophie quickly left the company and took a taxi to the hospital Hurley mentioned.
Inside the car, Sophie felt very uneasy. Hurley would not say anything about such a big matter.
According to her understanding of Hurley, for ordinary illnesses, even if the fever reaches 40 degrees, he will work overtime at the company.
If you can't come to the company for so many days, it's probably very serious.
This man usually treats himself as a machine, but now his body is exhausted!
Sophie went through all kinds of terminal diseases in her mind, and she tried hard to think of any diseases that she could not do anything about.
Hurley's luck shouldn't be that bad, right?
She hadn't seen him since he left abruptly in the middle of the night
