A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1488

Chapter 1488

Saunders breathed a sigh of relief after Ryan was transferred to a normal ward.

As Ryan lay down, he said considerately, "Thanks for staying with me, Mom and Dad. Sorry for causing you worry."

"We’re fine, as long as you get better," Lindsay said excitedly.

It was so obvious that Ryan was no longer pessimistic after leaving the ICU, unlike the period of time just after his

accident.

"I'll do my best not to disappoint," Ryan assured her.

"You've never disappointed us. You're always our pride," Lindsay said confidently, holding his hand.

Ryan smiled at her, a heart-warming sight between mother and son.

Sam was in the room too, since Ryan was leaving the ICU today.

He stood nearby, fiddling with his lighter and looking like none of it concerned him.

At the same time, Ryan turned toward Quinn after speaking with Lindsay.

Quinn was busy speaking with the nurse, getting her familiar with the ward and asking about the rehab procedures

for Ryan, meticulous as ever toward his care.

Ryan looked at her lovingly. "Thank you, Quinn."

Quinn turned and smiled. "It's nothing. It's what I should do."

"I wouldn't have accepted reality without your encouragement," Ryan said nonetheless, "let alone recover so well.

Thank you very much."

Quinn smiled faintly, acknowledging the gratitude before turning back to the nurse.

With that, Sam started to leave.

"Sam." Marvin suddenly stopped him. "Where are you going now?"

"I'm heading back to North City," Sam said flatly.

"Now?" Marvin exclaimed in surprise that he would leave so soon-was Sam really just leaving his parents to stay

with Ryan?!

"Someone should check things out in Saunderia," Sam said, his tone still flat. "There were calls days ago about

several projects that I need to be briefed on directly. And Ryan's doing fine now-your company is enough for him,

and I'd just get in the way hanging around."

Marvin sighed, feeling a little hurt that Sam would say that he was 'getting in the way'.

Did he always feel so inconsequential in their family?!

"I'm going now," Sam said and started to leave.

"I'll walk you out," Quinn suddenly said.

Sam cringed and turned toward Quinn.

It had been three days since Quinn overheard his conversation with his parents, and they never spoke since. They

were still staying at the same hotel, but would miss each other since they were taking different shifts-she would be

taking the day shift while him the night or vice versa.

It was only because Ryan was leaving the ICU that everyone was gathered there.

Moreover, Sam could tell that Quinn was being distant, and he was therefore surprised that Quinn would suddenly

approach him.

Before Sam could speak, Ryan suddenly asked, "Are you leaving too, Quinn?"

He suddenly looked so lonely and vulnerable, unlike his cheerful self just a moment ago.

Lindsay was staring nervously at Quinn too, worried that she would leave with Sam.

"No, I'm just sending him off to the entrance," Quinn replied.
