"Oh, I recall now," Jax abruptly halted, having an epiphany. "I've seen that beta before."
Upon hearing this, Ren didn't show any sign of a response. He didn't break his stride as he walked past Jax.
"Hey, Ren," Jax hollered after him. "Don't you recall? We ran into that beta just a few days back."
He successfully got Ren's attention, his voice casual, like he was having a light conversation with a close friend. It was as if the enraged man from earlier wasn't him at all.
"Remember when you were headed this way, and you saved a group of betas from a blimp? That beta, the one we just saw, was part of that group," Jax mentioned, grinning at Ren and studying his response, letting his words hang in the air. "You recall, don't you? Quite the unexpected meet-up, right?"
