In the VIP ward of the hospital, there was a round table full of exquisite dishes, but only two people were eating them.
Jason ate in a slow and orderly manner. Old Mr. Reed, who was sitting opposite him, was eating food with the help of a nurse.
In the ward, it was almost silent except for the sound of chewing. Neither the grandfather nor the grandson had said anything to each other.
Although the nurse who picked up the food for the Old Master was curious, she didn't dare to ask. After all, these two were the most powerful people in Emerald City.
Finally, after Old Mr. Reed was almost full, he said, "I heard that you haven't stayed in the house for the past few days?"
"Yes," Jason replied indifferently. He was not surprised that Old Master knew about this. After all, Old Master had his informants everywhere, even in his house.
"Where are you staying?"
"Outside," Jason replied.
"Why do you want to stay outside?" Old Mr. Reed asked.
"It's too quiet in the house." He pretended to be casual as he picked up a shrimp and slowly peeled off the shell.
"Speaking of which, you should have a girlfriend at your age. I will ask my secretary to sort out information about the famous young ladies in the city. You can pick one." Old Mr. Reed's tone sounded as if it was as simple as picking out clothes.
Jason's fingers, which were holding on to the shrimp, paused slightly. Then he replied, "There's no need."
Old Mr. Reed narrowed his eyes. "What's wrong?"
"If it's only to find a woman to give birth to a child, then I can choose my own candidate," he said. In the past, he felt that if he was destined to have a child who would inherit the Reed family in the future, then it didn't matter which woman gave birth to the child.
