Quote context

[...]

- Please Mr. Charles. I need you.

- Oh? what seems to be the trouble?

- It's Dad. He went away about three months ago and I haven't heard from him. Not a word. I'm worried sick.

- Oh, I wouldn't if I were you. After all he's an inventor. When he gets an idea he wants to work on, it's only natural that he should hide away somewhere. He's done it before.

- Yes, but never for 3 months!

- Did you see him before he left?

- No. Mr. Macaulay was the only one he spoke to. Well, Macaulay and Julia Wolf - she's Dad's secretary.

- Julia Wolf? Oh yes, I believe I've met her.

- And Macaulay is your father's lawyer, isn't he?

- Yes.

- His lawyer and his secretary both speak to him before he leaves, but no one knows where he went.

- He wouldn't tell them.

- What about your mother? He wouldn't tell her either?

- No... Mother and Dad aren't... they haven't seen each other for sometime.

- Oh, I see. Well, I don't know just what I can do for you.

- Why don't you speak to Macaulay? Maybe he's heard from your father and forgotten to let you know.
