A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1361

The next morning, Lindsay called to say that Marvin had woken up, but Sam was absolutely refusing to go to the hospital.

For one, he woke up with his eye swollen and even blacker, which was very amusing.

Secondly, he did not want to see Ryan ever again.

Still, Quinn dragged him to the hospital anyway—they were family and were only going to run into each other inevitably.

Marvin appeared enfeebled in the ICU, and the doctor said that he needed time to recover.

However, he seemed worried about work and pestered Lindsay to call in his assistant Peter.

Lindsay naturally refused. "You should be resting, dear. The doctor said that you're really sick, so get some proper rest. Don't worry about anything."

"I'm not. I just want to know about the company's situation—"

"If you're not worried, then you don't have to know," Lindsay told him. "Don't worry, the company would still run itself even without you. Quit worrying, you know your health matters."

"I…"

"Dad," Ryan spoked up, unable to keep watching just then. "You shouldn't worry about the company in your state. What if the same thing happens again if you overworked yourself? You'd be squandering your health as well. How could that be good?"

Marving became a little upset just then. "You don't get it. The company won't be running if I'm not around to worry."
