A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1494

Sam basically never showed up around Quinn through the next month.

When his parents asked him multiple times to return home for dinner, Sam would refuse, saying he had to work overtime.

In reality, everyone in the family knew Sam was just refusing to go.

On the other hand, Ryan was recovering well—the family doctor came in every day to check on his progress, and he could use a prosthetic at the rate he was recovering.

The Saunders were pleased with that, while Quinn was constantly by his side, helping him with rehab and spending time with him.

One day, Quinn got a call from Zoe, asking her to have dinner at her place.

Zoe complained that since she would be giving birth soon, and that also meant postpartum care would soon follow—she would not be able to eat anything as she liked, and she wanted to have her fill before that.

Quinn thought she should let loose a little as well.

She had no idea if she had been stressed lately, but there was simply nothing to look forward to, so she agreed to it right away.

"Is Sam going?" Ryan asked when Quinn told him about the dinner.

Ryan was aware that Sam was on very good terms with Zoe, Jay, and the rest, but he did not want Quinn and Sam to meet in private.

"I don't know. I did not ask," Quinn replied bluntly. "I'd go even if he does—I'm not about to cut ties with my best friend because of him."

Her words left Ryan embarrassed, and he smiled. "I was just asking. Don't get drunk—hangovers are terrible."

"Yeah."

Only Zoe's family was there when Quinn arrived at Jay's apartment in the evening.
