A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1479

Sam simply watched as Quinn and Ryan held hands in the ICU, her eyes projecting concern and heartache.

Should he have come? Probably not.

He started to leave as quietly as he came, but he did not go that far.

He stood at the end of the hallway, waiting for a long while until Quinn finally stepped out, and he pretended that he had just arrived.

Quinn was surprised to see him and hurried to him, asking, “What are you doing here, Sam?”

She was delighted, but it seemed to Sam she was upset.

So he was not needed here?!

“Do you want to switch?” Sam asked.

“No,” Quinn blurted.

Sam smiled faintly-true, he had been delusional.

Nodding, he started to leave when Quinn explained, “Wait, Sam-I meant I want to stay with you. Your parents will come to switch places with US once they’re up.”

She somehow felt that he was acting weird, thought it might be because he argued with his parents yesterday.

That was understandable.

Sam wanted to say no, but Quinn had already taken his hand as if it was natural and sat down on the hallway chair.

Sam pursed his lips but ultimately stayed quiet.

They sat together, with Quinn moving very close to him.

Sam did not react, however, even shifting slightly to keep his distance.

“Didn’t you go drinking last night? I thought you’d still be passed out, but you’re early,” Quinn asked.

“Wasn’t drunk. I didn’t drink that much,” Sam explained.

“Yeah.” Quinn nodded.

She knew it—he had changed.

When push came to shove, he no longer behaved on a whim and knew what he should be doing.

“You asked Cordy to look for me yesterday?” he asked, having an idea when Sean came looking for him at the bar. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He did not have a phone with him, and Cordy was Quinn’s only person to go to for help.

“Yeah. I was worried, so I asked Cordy,” Quinn replied. “I’d have to thank her properly later.”

Sam said nothing, but his heart skipped a beat.

Maybe Quinn only did it out of her sense of responsibility, and he should not expect too much.

They simply sat there on the hallway, chatting intermittently while Quinn had the nagging feeling that Sam was acting coldly today.

Was he still upset with his mother?!

Quinn wanted to reason with him, but she also believed that he was not at fault-that he was right to be angry!

At around eight, Quinn was left surprised to see Cordy and John visiting, and she promptly stood up. “Cordy…”

“We came to visit Ryan,” Cordy said. “We would’ve come with Sam, but he was already gone when we woke up. He’s worried that you’d be tired staying up all night and was going to switch places with you.” “Yeah.” Quinn blushed a little. “I’m waiting for his parents to come soon, then I’ll go back to the hotel with him.”
