Those threatening words left the journalist turning pale, but he was not about to be cowed when so many others were watching.
"I-I'm just telling the truth!" he stammered. "Quinn Summer is being vain, and you have no feelings for her?!"
"Then why would I punch you?" Sam demanded.
While the journalist was left dumbstruck, Sam added threateningly, "You have no say with whatever's between me and Quinn. Slander her again, and I'll kill you!"
He suddenly turned, and took Quinn's hand.
She was caught by surprise but did not push him away.
Even as he left with her, he barked intimidatingly at the journalists who were obviously enjoying the drama, "If you have any questions about me messing around with other women, come to me! But I will make sure anyone who harasses Quinn suffers for the rest of their lives!"
And with those words, Sam furiously left with Quinn, leaving the journalists agape.
If anyone were to tell them that Sam did not love Quinn, they would call them a liar.
But if he did love her, why was he not showing any signs of stopping his philandering?
Meanwhile, Sam was unceremoniously shoving Quinn into his car while she glanced at her own car which was parked nearby.
Her chauffeur was still standing beside it, staring in confusion as Sam took her away.
"I have my own car," she told Sam calmly then, although she was confused about why he turned back when she obviously saw him leaving with Bob earlier.
"Shut up!" Sam barked at her furiously.
