MARCUS

I thought the pain of my wife leaving me was the worst I would ever feel, but I was wrong. The real pain came from losing all of them at once, my wife, my son, and now my daughter. Even the one person who truly understood what I was going through was leaving. I was going to be left alone in my misery, and I had no idea how I would get through it. How was I supposed to live each day without them?

It already felt like I couldn’t breathe, like my heart was about to give out right there. We were at the airport, and the last time I held my baby was before we left the hospital. Now she was in an incubator, being carried by the doctors, heading off in an ambulance to the jet.

Luke’s jet looked more like a private hospital ward than an aircraft. I had no doubt that my little girl would be comfortable there until she reached her mother. But the sight of them loading her onto the jet, leaving me behind, took the last part of my heart with them. It broke me.

“Hey man, remember what I told you. Throw yourself into your work, keep busy, don’t let yourself overthink. Call us whenever you need to talk, and you can talk to Samuel tob. I’ll send you pictures every day, okay?” Nick tried to comfort me, but how was I supposed to feel better when everything that mattered to me was gone? My family was no longer with me, and the work he wanted me to focus on felt meaningless. Walker Enterprises practically ran itself. I didn’t need to be there for it to function.

Okay, judging by the look on your face, work isn’t the answer. Tell me, is there a country you don’t operate in?” he asked, his tone hopeful.

I frowned, confused. Was he giving me a hint about where they were headed? “The Asian countries,” he said, clearly excited. “Why don’t you go establish Walker Enterprises there? It’ll take your mind off things, and you won’t be so depressed about all this.”
