章節 692: Impromptu Trip

After his phone call with his father, Tom decided to return Kimberly's call and find out why she had been calling, and just as soon as the call connected, his office door opened and Harry walked in wearing a glum expression.

"What's wrong?" Tom asked Harry with a frown before he heard Kimberly's sob.

Harry said nothing as he turned on the television in Tom's office, and Tom's brows pulled together when he saw the headline on the screen.

EX-PRESIDENT, LAWRENCE HANK, DEAD!

Without speaking with Kimberly, Tom hung up the call as he stared at the screen with disbelief.

"What is the meaning of this?" Tom asked Harry, not wanting to believe it was what he was seeing.

"He died a couple of minutes ago. He slumped while giving a speech during a United Nations event and was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital," Harry explained quietly, and watched as Tom staggered on his feet and held the table for support.
