After dinner, on their way home, Rex thought about calling Reed Hardin.

But what surprised him was that Reed called him first and got straight to the point. "How's the cooperation with Cole going?" Rex: "..."

He replied honestly, "It didn't go through. I was about to ask you for help."

What do you mean?"

Rex explained, "I offended one of Cole's technical staff, and Johnny is involved because of her-"

Reed cut him off. "What's the name of that technical staff?"

Reed: "..."

Rex was about to explain that Maggie wasn't exactly a core technical staff member-just someone with an- ambiguous relationship with Johnny. However, Reed didn't give him the chance. He said, "I can help with this."

Rex immediately responded, "Thank you, old man!"

"... Shameless."

"When will you be taking a break?"

Rex didn't feel embarrassed at all about asking his father for help. He believed he could have secured the Cole project on his own with his strength, but personal grudges had gotten in the way. He didn't care about this personal grudge. Since he could use the quickest way to bypass it, why not take
