A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1357

Chapter 1357

Quinn walked up behind him. “Sam…’

He ignored her.

In fact, he actually sensed someone entering but never turned to look.

Quinn could sense his rage without seeing the look on his face, but she asked anyway, “How’s your face?”

“Very good. What are you doing here? Why aren’t you staying with Ryan?” he asked with a hint of sarcasm.

Quinn would have stormed off in the past.

But for some reason, she felt like he was just being jealous at the moment.

Moreover, he was simply bad at expressing himself, which led to many misunderstandings between them before.

“I’m your wife. Why should I stay with him?” she asked.

Sam pursed his lips and took another puff of his cigarette while continuing to ignore her.

“Let me take a look at your face,” she offered then. “I asked the doctor for a prescription.”

“I said I’m fine,” he growled a little impatiently.

“Sam…”

“Go back to your room. Don’t mind me,” he said, his tone still harsh.

“Are you upset?” she asked.

“Why would I be?” He snorted. “Ryan’s right. I have no right to be upset when I’m useless.”

“And I snapped at him,” Quinn suddenly replied.

While Sam did a double take, she explained, “For your sake. You’re obviously not the man he described.”

Sam gulped, and she added, “I don’t like the way he insulted you either.”

“Aren’t you afraid of him?” Sam asked, his tone still cold but obviously changing ever so slightly.

It was likely that he did not notice it either.

“Nope.” Quinn shrugged. “He’s not my husband.”

Sam stiffened a little, while she tugged on his hand. “Come on. Let me see your face.”
