Chapter 1977
A split second later, Samuel smiled and replied, “I would’ve forgotten about this if you hadn’t brought it up. Yes, you still owe me one.”
Quentin smiled in return. “I know this slipped your mind probably due to your busy schedule, but I’ve never forgotten about it at all.”
With that, he took off the cross that had been hanging around his neck and placed it on the table between them. “Since you intend to use this favor to protect Malcolm, I’ll do as you wish.
“Here. You can take this back.”
He was just about to stand up when he suddenly paused as though he recalled something. Then, he took out a stack of cash from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Samuel glanced at it, frowning. “What’s this?”
“A reward for helping me pray for deceased souls.” Quentin pointed at Joshua and Luna, both sitting on the bench outside, and explained, “One of them wants to pray for Lucy, and the other, Colin Landry. As for me, I don’t have anyone I want to pray for, so please help me pray for Quentin instead.
“Also, Lucy and Colin too.”
Samuel glanced at the two people waiting outside and sighed. “Are you sure you want to pray for Lucy and Colin? You know fully well that they died because of,”
“Let’s not bring up the past,” Quentin interjected him coldly. “I have some stuff to take care o f, so I’ll be off now.”
With that, he turned and strode out the door.
As soon as his hand touched the doorknob, he suddenly paused. “I know that Luna and Joshua have come to you to learn the truth about what happened; they’d never have come so far just for a useless piece of shit like Malcolm, so watch your mouth, Samuel.
