"Okay, I'll go with you. Since Jimmy was born, I haven't seen him yet." Speaking of that child, Stanley's eyelids drooped, guilt and self-recrimination all over his eyes.
Violet saw it and put her hand on his for silent reassurance.
After a few seconds, Stanley recovered and patted the back of her hand, "Okay, I'm fine, when do we go tomorrow?"
"At night, it happened to be daytime on the day we arrived abroad." Violet said.
Stanley nodded, "Okay, I'll have Fraser arrange for a private jet."
Violet nodded her head.
When Calvin and Arya heard this, they looked at each other, put down their chopsticks and ran to the two in unison, pulling their hands and shaking them.
"Mommy and Daddy, we want to go see our brother too." Arya blinked and looked at Stanley.
Calvin did the same and looked at Violet and said, "We miss our brother."
"What to do? Bring them with us?" Violet asked as she looked at Stanley.
Stanley's brow was filled with tenderness.
He stroked the two children's heads and said, "Okay."
"Good!" Violet laughed lightly.
The two kids jumped in place with joy when they heard it.
During this period of time, Mommy had basically rarely taken them with her because of Daddy's accident, either leaving them at home or letting Bella and Fraser take care of them.
They've wanted to stay with their mommy and daddy for a long time.
How could they not be happy now that the opportunity had come?
Looking at the two children laughing, Violet and Stanley looked at each other, both seeing laughter in each other's eyes.
The next night, the family of four took Stanley's private jet to go abroad and see Jimmy.
It was only on the fourth day at lunchtime that Sophie learned from the other employees that Stanley had actually left the country with his wife and kids.
He's out of the country. He's actually out of the country!
No wonder she had seen his car yesterday when she went to the parking lot.
Turns out he's out of the country.
With his wife and kids!
Thinking about Violet made Sophie's heart sour, and she lost her appetite for dinner.
She slapped her chopsticks on the table, startling the rest of her colleagues into looking at her.
"Sophie, what's wrong with you?" A kindly older woman asked with concern.
Sophie bit her lip and shook her head, "I'm fine, I just can't eat, I'll go first!"
With that, she picked up her plate and left her position.
Just as she left on the first foot, her seat was taken by someone on the second, none other than the HR employee who brought Sophie in that day.
The HR employee looked at the direction Sophie left and sneered, "What else can she do? It is because she heard that Mr. Murphy left the country and she couldn't see him, she's upset!"
He said quite loudly, and quite a few people heard it, startling the whole restaurant into a frenzy.
"No way, are you saying that she has a crush on our president?" Someone asked.
In fact, there were many people who were interested in Mr. Murphy, but everyone had self-awareness and knew that they couldn't have anything with Mr. Murphy, so even if they were interested in Mr. Murphy, they just hid it in their hearts, but Sophie showed it so obviously.
"Yeah, I found out the other day. I heard our minister say that she seems to have done Mr. Murphy a favor, Mr. Murphy originally wanted to place her in a branch and give her a position, but she didn't want to, she insisted to go into the headquarters just to see Mr. Murphy one more time. Mr. Murphy had no choice, so he placed her in the cleaning department, and guess what?" The HR smiled mysteriously.
The crowd was so curious that someone couldn't help but rush, "Come on, just say it, how can we guess?"
"Exactly." The crowd nodded.
HR laughed heatedly twice and finally opened his mouth, "She ran to the top floor to find Mr. Murphy at noon that day, then Fraser went to the cleaning department not long after and taught the head of the cleaning department a lesson."
"So that's how it is, no wonder the minister doesn't like Sophie. We were curious about what happened, I didn't expect that." The older woman who was just concerned about Sophie instantly drifted off, then contempt for Sophie rose up in her heart.
