A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1450

Sam lay in bed, tossing and turning but unable to fall asleep.

He somehow dozed off earlier as he merely stayed there, but now that he was in bed, he was wide awake.

He waited for Quinn, but she was not coming even after a long while.

As such, he quietly got out of bed and peeked through the door slit to find her still watching TV with a serious look.

He tiptoed back to bed, inwardly relieved.

He was not impatient—he was just worried Quinn would not return to his room.

Still, he tiptoed back and forth for a while to peek at Quinn, until he finally saw her turn off the TV.

Startled, he scrambled back to his bed to pretend to sleep.

Quinn returned to her room to wash up before heading into Sam’s room.

She kept her movement quiet seeing that he was asleep, pulling up the blanket to lay beside him.

She did not want to wake him but could not help shifting closer either.

Sam suddenly stiffened, getting nervous as he usually did around Quinn.

He held his breath, feeling her soft, warm body pressing against his.

For a split second, he really felt that it was worth staying alive-the world was just so beautiful!

Over the following days, Sam and Quinn were both busy, with Sam at work and Quinn helping Lindsay prepare for Marvin’s birthday banquet.

They did not have much time to spend together, and Quinn certainly was not as busy as Sam.

She did not get to see him much. Occasionally, he would return tiptoeing late into the night, gently pulling herself into his arms to sleep. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

However, he would be gone by the next morning, which left Quinn feeling at a loss.

Somehow, she also felt like he was deliberately hiding from her, especially since her period was over days ago.

In fact, on that very night, she waited for him to come home, hinting that she was ready when he did.

“rm tired from work,” he muttered at the time. “I need to get some sleep…”

Quinn felt dejected but did not press the issue since he was tired.

However, he made the same excuse for days.

Sighing, she got out of bed since she was not the type who could idle. And with Marvin’s birthday banquet ready, she did not have to help Lindasy.

After some thought, she got changed, put on some makeup, and went straight to the office.

She was a little eager since it has been two weeks since she worked, and she looked forward to being with Sam.

However, she entered Sam’s office, only to find it empty.

Where did he go?

For a meeting?

This early in the morning?!

It was not surprising that he left early if it was an important meeting.

Her discomfort easing slightly, she walked over to her desk.

For convenience, she always worked in the same office with Sam…
