Quinn blushed even harder.

She had no idea how things stood between herself and Sam as of yet, but it was definitely not at the stage of

having children.

Sam was getting embarrassed too and quickly said, "You don't have to worry about us-we get it."

"I really think you don't," Lindsay huffed. "Your children would be running around now if you did your job!"

"Mom!" Sam cried, speechless. "Cut it out."

"Fine, I'll stop-but I must warn you, Sam, you're not getting a better woman if you lose Quinn. You'd be forever

alone, regretting it for life!"

"I know.” Sam snorted impatiently, but he was not arguing the point.

Nearby, Ryan was left glowering as he listened and suddenly got up to leave the drawing room.

Everyone turned toward him because of his sudden departure, and Sam naturally knew what Ryan was upset

about.

He turned to glance at Quinn, who was staring as Ryan left.

It was just a knee-jerk reaction and nothing else, and when she sensed Sam looking, she promptly turned back

toward him.

She met his gaze, as if telling him wordlessly that she had gotten over Ryan.

Sam averted his eyes, but he was celebrating inwardly.

She had really gotten over Ryan, had she not?!

Marvin and Lindsay were surprised for a couple of seconds after Ryan left too but never mentioned him. They were

mostly discussing Marvin's birthday and urging Sam and Quinn to have children soon.

Sam and Quinn headed home at 9 PM-they normally never headed home this early since they often worked

overtime. As such, they would usually be exhausted and go to bed once they had taken their baths.

Tonight, however, coming home early meant things got a little awkward.

At some point they did not know, it had become embarrassing for them to be in each other's company, even when

they were looking in each other's eyes.

Still, feeling that they were being too quiet, Quinn began, 'TH be going with your mom to help organize your dad's

birthday banquet, so I won't be going to work with you."

"Okay." Sam nodded.

"The company is on the right track now, so don't work overtime unless it's important," Quinn added. "Your health

matters."

"Yeah."

And with that, they both fell silent again.

Quinn sighed-she should just take her time with Sam.

She thought that Sam was always better in courtship, so it could be just her. That was why she felt he was a little

green when Sam was around her.

Or maybe he just did not feel anything for her...

Rising from the couch, she said, "It's late. I’m going back to my room-you should do the same."

"Quinn." Sam suddenly stopped her.

"Yes?"

"I..." Sam paused for a moment, before continuing "You said before that once we're done with Saunderia's crisis,

we should really give our relationship a serious thought."

Quinn's heart started racing right then-she thought Sam had forgotten about it, just as she was unsure how to bring

it up.

After all, she had the nagging feeling that he did not care much about them, and they were more comrades than

anything else.

Sam mustered his courage just then and said, "If you've really gotten over Ryan, we could... give us a try."

"Yeah." Quinn agreed to it without hesitation.

Sam was actually surprised-even subtly delighted-by her determination, though he did not expect her to say no

when she suggested it herself.

He took a sip of his drink to hide his excitement, concerned that he would scare her off if he made himself appear

too obvious.
