A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1362

However, Quinn was still young, and most of the elders in Saunderia—especially the board members—had no confidence in her.

As such, she could not keep the company in line. She might even get harassed while her every move would be impeded.

Marvin could therefore anticipate that Saunderia had collapsed into a mess internally by now because he was the only one who could keep things together.

"I'll go with Quinn," Sam suddenly said.

Everyone was left stunned, while Quinn turned toward Sam in surprise.

"You wanted me to work, didn't you? That's what I'll do right now," Sam told Marvin. "It's a one-time offer—you either stay down and rest and let me and Quinn handle the company's situation. Or you can go back to your office right now, but in that case, don't ever hope that I'll ever set foot in Saunderia."

Marvin was hesitant, just as he doubted Sam's ability to handle the company's situation. In fact, Marvin himself only went to work every other day, so there was no way he had the confidence Sam was up to task.

However, there was no question that this was a chance for Sam to shape up—Marvin would not have to worry about being heirless if he agreed to keep the company together…

Nonetheless, Ryan scoffed just then. "What's the point? You've never worked, and you're saying you can handle a crisis? Over thirty and none of the maturity to show for it…"

"I am immature and I don't have what it takes." Sam shrugged even as he admitted to it. "But I'm willing to shoulder the responsibility and work just so our father can recover with peace of mind. But what about you? Are you willing to give up on your work and help Dad?"

"Giving up on my work?! When you're the one constantly goofing off?!" Ryan bellowed. "Do you think we're the same?! My work contributes to the nation!"

"No, we're not—but somehow, neither of us contribute anything to the family business," Sam said bluntly.
