Jason, as Drew turned to look at him, the door to the hospital room suddenly swung open by Bryce’s assistant.

At the sight of Jason and Drew just standing at the doorway, the assistant was momentarily taken aback before offering a respectful greeting, “Mr. Jason.”

Jason gave the assistant a brief glance, nonchalant as he entered the room.
