A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1489

Chapter 1489

Quinn followed Sam out of Ryan's ward in silence.

As they stepped outside the hospital, Sam's car was already parked there and waiting.

Sam pursed his lips, intent on leaving directly since he had no idea what to tell Quinn.

"Sam," Quinn suddenly called out to him. "Will you be coming back to the capital after you return to North City?"

Sam stopped then. "Probably not. Ryan's recovering well, and it looks like he'll be discharged soon. Mom and Dad will take him back to North City for rehab as well, so I won't have to travel back here."

"So you're leaving me here alone," Quinn muttered under breath.

Her words were quiet, but it struck Sam in the heart so violently and abruptly he almost could not breathe.

He clenched his teeth and stayed silent, basically saying yes.

What else was she hoping for?! He had already said that he was just making do with her, and once he left, it was over between them.

She simply could not move him even after everything she did.

"Safe travels," she said, because there was nothing else to say.

Understanding was enough. She smiled at him and turned to leave.

Sam watched her cutting a lonely figure, suddenly finding her so small.
