Bob asked Sam just then, "Why don't you leave with her?"
Sam ignored him and kept clinking glasses or chatting with the many guests in the hall.
Bob smiled, speechless.
Sam was certainly good at pretending, but how long would that last?

After Quinn returned to her room, she removed her makeup, took a bath, and got dressed in casual clothing before laying down on the huge, luxurious hotel bed.
She was obviously exhausted but somehow could not fall asleep as she was wondering where Sam would be staying tonight.
She had checked the lodging records, and this room was allocated to her and Sam.
Did that mean they are sharing the room again? In that case, when would he return?
Her heart palpitated, and she simply could not fall asleep.
She got out of bed to get a glass of water before sitting on the chaise lounge beside the glass wall to take in the stunning nightscape of the capital.
One would expect nothing less from the heart of a nation—even late into the night, it was illuminated with mesmerizing myriad colored radiance.
Quinn was left dazzled by the sight when her phone jingled with a notification.
She tapped on it, pausing for a moment, surprised that Ryan would suddenly text her.
[I heard you're in the capital, Quinn?]
[Yeah. Cordy's second wedding is being held here.]
