"What is there to discuss? You're his father, he is your son. He will surely have to listen to you," Ted said.

Don't feel restricted." Hayden did not have an appetite. "Let's get to business! Stop fooling around." Edward, Ted, and Nick were baffled.

"Business? What business? Your two cover here other to drink and eat, could there be anything else?" Edward asked the obvious.
