Chapter 1345
Sam and Quinn hurried to the hospital and found Lindsay in the hallway, where she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
“Mom!” Sam called out to her loudly.
Lindsay’s eyes went red as soon as she saw Sam. “Y-Your father… he suddenly had a stroke. He had already lost consciousness when they rushed him to the hospital…”
“Calm down. He’ll be alright,” Sam said, gathering her in his arms. “He’ll be fine.”
“Hngh… How am I going to live if something happens to him …” Lindsay kept sobbing nonetheless.
Quinn’s eyes welled up with tears-she had been living with Saunders for years and knew how close Marvin and Lindsay were. She could not imagine what it would be like if something really happened to either of them…
They waited quietly outside the surgery room, jumping at the faintest sound.
There was no telling how long had passed when rushed footsteps could be heard.
Everyone turned to find Ryan hurrying toward them.
“Mom,” he called out to the sobbing Lindsay immediately, asking urgently, “What happened to Dad? Why would he suddenly have a stroke? Didn’t he have frequent checkups?
Are you sure he’s been taking his blood pressure medicine every day?”
“He fell unconscious at the office. His secretary said a partnership left him so furious he blacked out…”
Lindsay trailed off, choking with tears and unable to continue.
“The questions can wait until Dad wakes up,” Sam told Ryan just then.
