hope everything is fine / hope nothing is wrong
Explanation:
Both suggestions are the same. I got inspired by another answerer who chose "hope nothing is wrong" the equivalent is "hope everything is fine" Which one of the terms would be chosen depends on the way someone uses the spoken English language as well maybe fine subtle differences that are not necessarily too important (US-English or UK-English etc.) The spoken words are especially important here since the provided source text excerpt is obviously part of a dialogue and the same in English would have to be rendered as such (spoken language in written form).
