Chapter 1887 He Will Return

Rose never stayed for long and spent most of the time with Evie.

She didn't have much interaction with Sally, either.

So when she suddenly mentioned those two, Athena assumed there must be something behind it.

"It has nothing to do with them, but isn't the Hale family having an internal crisis now?" Rose sighed, "What the hell is Gideon thinking? Without his wife now, he should've worked on the business properly, yet he's letting someone do his things for him while he runs away. The situation isn't looking good for the Hale family now."

"Is it that serious?" Athena asked as she didn't understand Hale Group's structure.

Hale Group belonged to the Hutchin City circle, which she didn't interact much with.

Rose swiftly showed Athena a chat log, and it was roughly talking about Hale Group's current situation.

After a while, Athena said, "I think it's not that bad, though. Gideon's parents own so many shares, after all. Even if they finally lose their rights over the company, the money is enough for them to spend for the rest of their lives."

"Dear, that's not how the account is settled," Rose said sternly, "You have to know that Hale Group has offended a lot of people when it was at the peak of its powers. Just look at Gideon's mother. You can't treat money as your shield, especially if you're in the Hutchin City circle. Only power can save your life."

"Does that mean you want to protect them?" Athena asked.

Rose lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before saying, "It's true that I no longer have a close relationship with the Hale family's last two generations, but Sir Hale had once helped me when I was in a dire situation. Now that he has passed and his descendants have driven Hale Group into this situation, I will be too ashamed to see Sir Hale after I die if I only stand by and watch."

Sir Hale, also known as Theodore Hale, was Gideon's great-grandfather.

Back when Rose was a young and energetic woman, she had offended a remarkable figure in the Hutchin City circle.

And it was Theodore who helped her overcome that difficult situation, although he was already in his old age.

"I understand. Grandma, you can do whatever you want, and Byron and I will follow your steps!" Athena said resolutely.

Rose nodded.

She wanted to say something else, but she was clearly hesitating.

Athena laughed and asked, "Grandma, do you still need to think carefully when talking to me?"

"Actually, there's so little that outsiders like us can do. If we want to bring Hale Group out of its current predicament..." Athena's smile gradually faded.

"We have to make Gideon return."

"Yeah." Rose nodded.

"He... I'm sure he will return." Athena was helpless, but she was sure of it.

Essentially, Gideon was a contradictory person.

He loved Sally deeply, yet he kept pushing her away, then tried to find a way to make her return to his side again.

Similarly, he had also carried the burden of the Hale family on his shoulders for more than 30 years.

And now, he had lost all hope and left everything to run away.

But that burden was just like in Sally's case.

He could take it, but he might not be able to completely put it down.

After all, the Hale family was behind that heavy burden. It was an entire family connected to him by blood.

"And that's why, it's unknown whether it's luck or misfortune for a child to be born into a wealthy family," Rose sighed heavily.

"Okay, enough about it. Pixie has worked so hard to make you happy, so stop pulling a long face." Athena's soft hand gently smoothed out Rose's frowning eyebrows. "Gideon is still in his prime. Who knows, maybe in two years, the Hale family will return to its glory!"

"I hope so," Rose said. Then she looked at that beloved kid who was still sobbing silently in the corner and said, "Why did Byron choose this time to go to work?!"
