A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1403

In reality, Quinn's heart rate never slowed nor did she have any idea how long the awkward silence between them would have lasted if that Saunderia executive did not come in.

Sam was embarrassed too, was he not?!

Quinn bit her lip and worked hard to keep a straight face or she would laugh out loud.

She returned to the couch.

As she glanced at Sam from the corner of her eye, she saw that he was listening attentively to the executive's report and nothing else.

All the concerned departments and employees worked overtime for Damian Craig's reception, and that was the same for Sam and Quinn as well.

They held endless meetings and discussions, intent on presenting their sincerity as much as they could.

It was now two in the morning, but Sam was not leaving the office. He had just liaised with various departments for a latter period discussion of their partnership agreement, amending the sales clause. This finally afforded him to process the day's OA documents, many which required his approval.

When he first started out, he would approve everything without even reading through the document. Still, he was increasingly prudent now, checking through each document thrice before giving his approval, which took considerably more time.

By the time he was done and turned toward Quinn, he found her asleep on the couch.
