Are these sentences natural? June 19

Hi,

Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?

1. I hope I am not taking too much of your time. I have called you unannounced. ( I said this to a peson on the phone)

2. I don’t mean to hold you up, if you need to go, let me know.

3. He never stays so late, he must have had to work on something important.

Thanks,
MG
