Lindsay entered and said, "Good work, Sam and Quinn."

Both of them looked at them at the same time, only seeing her just then since they were busy with work.

Sam was surprised. "When did you come by, Mom?"

"Your dad insisted on coming, so I came with him."

"Dad's here too?" Sam frowned.

"He was persistent and I couldn't stop him," Linda said with a smile. "I told him that he only gets two hours, though. He's leaving once the time is up."

"Is he feeling better?" Quinn asked in concern.

"The doctors said he's mostly fine, but I'm still worried given the precedent."

"Yeah, he should rest more." Quinn nodded and quickly asked, "Would you like a drink? I'll have my secretary bring it for you."

"No, I just came to check on you," Lindsay said mildly. "I won't impose either—you should get back to work."

When Quinn got up to walk with her, she stopped Quinn. "No, you can stay. I'm just sightseeing anyway. Also, you should come by tonight for dinner. It's Marvin's sixtieth birthday so

    When Sam was finished with work, he looked up to find Quinn staring at him fixedly.He blinked in return and said, "Quinn?"Quinn came to her senses, blushing right away as she got entranced from staring at Sam. While she never thought him good looking, she found him exceedingly handsome today.That chiseled cheek matched with his pronounced facial features… There was no hiding that masculine charm of his.Could this be beauty in the eye of the beholder?!Quinn's heart skipped a couple of beats, and she could feel it thump even as she pursed her lips.Not wanting to hide her feelings for Sam anymore, she mustered her courage to turn and meet his gaze.Sam could tell that she was acting weird as well—even the way she looked at him was different.He gulped without knowing. Heaven knows how much he wanted to rush up and take her into his arms and never let go.The air in the room seemed aflame just then, until Sam's phone suddenly started to ring.Both Sam and Quinn were sta

    Sam stared at their interlocked fingers, his heart racing as warmth overflowed over his chest.He could not help tightening his grip, as if to respond after she took the initiative.Quinn smiled lightly as they entered, holding hands.Marvin and Lindsay were waiting on the porch.Ryan was there too, and he immediately saw Sam and Quinn holding hands.There was no hiding the rage in his eyes—was this a challenge? Were Sam and Quinn deliberately challenging him?!Lindsay and Marvin noticed that too and smiled happily since they really wanted Sam and Quinn's marriage to improve!Lindsay greeted them eagerly. "Welcome back. I'll have the kitchen serve dinner.""Okay." Sam nodded. Neither he nor Quinn let go, as they were all too keen to keep holding on to each other.In fact, Quinn never thought that holding hands would be this blissful.Still, as they sat down together with the family at the table, Sam would be peeking at Quinn on occasion, and Quinn would return his gaze oc

    Quinn blushed even harder.She had no idea how things stood between herself and Sam as of yet, but it was definitely not at the stage of having children.Sam was getting embarrassed too and quickly said, "You don't have to worry about us—we get it.""I really think you don't," Lindsay huffed. "Your children would be running around now if you did your job!""Mom!" Sam cried, speechless. "Cut it out.""Fine, I'll stop—but I must warn you, Sam, you're not getting a better woman if you lose Quinn. You'd be forever alone, regretting it for life!""I know." Sam snorted impatiently, but he was not arguing the point.Nearby, Ryan was left glowering as he listened and suddenly got up to leave the drawing room.Everyone turned toward him because of his sudden departure, and Sam naturally knew what Ryan was upset about.He turned to glance at Quinn, who was staring as Ryan left.It was just a knee-jerk reaction and nothing else, and when she sensed Sam looking, she promptly turned back

    Sam was actually worried that he would celebrate too early and jinx it."Then…"Looking at Sam just then, Quinn asked, "Do you want to sleep together tonight?""Bleugh!" Sam spat out his drink.Quinn was left staring at him in disappointment. "If you mind it, it's fine…""No, I don't mind," Sam blurted.Quinn was left stunned since he was clearly overreacting.Still, Sam quickly wiped his mouth and added, "I don't mind sleeping with you.""Alright. I'll go take a bath first," Quinn said with a beam."Okay.""Shall we sleep in my room or yours?""Either's fine.""Your room, then. It's larger.""Okay.""I'll take my bath now.""Yeah.""You…" Quinn said. "You should too."She flushed right then, since all adults knew what that meant.Sam gulped repeatedly, unable to control his feelings."Yeah," he murmured, his voice deep but shuddering—he almost could not repress his desire just then.He stared at Quinn until she finally returned to her room and breathed a huge sigh

    Sam clearly felt his own body shaking—and it was not only him, as Quinn was trembling beneath him too.He was really at the limit of his self-restraint and would have let loose before.He gently approached her even as she stiffened from head to toe, her fingers clenching nervously on the sheets and afraid to release it.She did not even realize how she ended up beneath Sam, only that his breathing was ragged and his heart pounding heavily like thunder.She was actually afraid to touch him, since she felt that he was dangerous just then.Nonetheless, he pressed his lips against hers, his heart thumping even more violently while she clenched harder on the sheets.Their minds went blank when their lips met.Unable to think, the tender sensation between them seemed to plunge straight into their buoyed spirits.So that was what a real kiss felt like.Quinn suddenly remembered the time Sam took her in the car, which was more like mating between base animals. On that occasion, she

    Sam moved from Quinn's lips to her ears, which were flushed from embarrassment and burned at his touch.Quinn had never been tempted like this, since her only carnal experience was that one time with Sam in the car.There was no resisting his teasing now.She moved closer to him, nestling her head against his collarbone, and rubbed herself against him…Sam almost broke under her seduction and made bolder moves as he clearly felt Quinn being receptive toward everything he was doing.The rest was history… or would have been, until Sam suddenly stopped.Quinn felt her whole body aflame and soft, and her head was empty as she was merely playing to Sam's tune. Finally realizing that he had stopped for a while, she opened her muddled eyes at him. "What is it?"Sam slowly relaxed himself, refraining from speaking in fear that his desires would get the better of him."Sam?" Quinn had no idea what was wrong with him and was left staring as he stayed silent and still.But he was so… u

    "I'm sorry," Quinn apologized. "I didn't know… It came early this time.""Yeah." Sam nodded—he did not blame her since she was not at fault.In fact, no one would know, and one could only blame the heavens for being unfair.He had been abstaining for her sake for three years, and when he finally thought it was finally time…Whatever, it did not matter.Sam sighed heavily, and Quinn thought he was disappointed in her and felt hurt.Even so, she mustered her courage and asked, "Are we going to do it again?"Sam did a double take, and snapped loudly, "Ya think?! We're doing it the instant it's over!"Quinn's sullen mood cleared up right then—she was so worried he would give up because of this!Having his assurance now, she quickly said, "Then I'll go back to my room. I shouldn't bother you from sleeping."Before she could leave, Sam asked, "Where are you going?""Back to my room.""You already came to mine, and you're going back now?!" he suddenly snapped, raising his brow and

    And with those words, Quinn fell asleep contentedly in Sam's arms.She did not notice that beside her, the man opened his eyes and watched her sleep lovingly, his fingers trembling even as he caressed her hair…-When Quinn opened her eyes the next day, she stared muddleheadedly at her unfamiliar surroundings.She eventually remembered that she was in Sam's bed, having done everything with him except the deed.Her face went beet red—she thought she would never fall asleep in his arms since she was used to sleeping alone, and her heart would race whenever he was near. Despite her nerves, she fell asleep once she closed her eyes since she was too tired, and work had been taxing as of late.She tentatively turned to find Sam still deeply asleep, and the way he looked was completely different from usual. His brow was relaxed, his visage mild and a lot less stern than when he opened his eyes. What was it that made him look so different when he was awake from when he was asleep?A

    Soon, another nurse emerged from the delivery room with a small bundle. "Is the mother's family here?""Yes!" John exclaimed loudly."The delivery was successful," the nurse said. "The baby weighs eight pounds—""How is she?" John asked in agitation, not caring about the child."She's fine. The doctor is just helping her clean up and she'll be out soon," the nurse replied.As John breathed a sigh of relief, the nurse reminded him, "Aren't you the father? Here's your child."John took the baby off her arms, staring at her for a moment as the others flocked around him. "Oh, she's so fair!" Zoe could not help exclaiming. "That's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.""Are you saying that your son's ugly?" Bob teased."To be honest, yeah," Zoe replied without thinking.Jay cleared his throat—even if it was a subjective opinion, it still hurt to have his own baby called ugly."Let me carry her," Zoe volunteered just then, and John did not hesitate to hand her his baby.As Zoe

    "What?!" Zoe exclaimed in shock.Beside them, John's face fell despite being usually stoic.Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, "We're the hosts, Zoe.""Don't care." Zoe was completely unconcerned. "Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I'm going with Cordy!"Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, "If you're done kissing, we're going to the hospital! Cordy's going into labor!"Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. "Slow down. We can catch up."In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe's son was actually intended for everyone else.The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!-As everyone rushed to the hospit

    "I'm swelling from my pregnancy," Quinn explained. "It's not your fault."Sam was left staring at her for a while before asking, "So, what should I do?""I'll put it on when I slim down.""Oh." Sam was a little disappointed, since he had always dreamed of having her put on the ring he had custom made.But this was fine—they had all the time they needed, and the most important thing for him is that Quinn was marrying him!He rose to his feet just then, and everyone was cheering as soon as he did. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"Quinn blushed right then, and Sam could see that she was embarrassed.He did not want to make things awkward for her, even if he was quite eager at the moment.Heaven knows how much he missed that night's drunken fumble they had. In fact, during the times he remembered it in dreams, he had to wash his pants when he woke up.Still, just as he took Quinn's hand and started to leave, he felt a softness on his lips—Quinn was kissing him! Sam's heart pounded thunderous

    Everyone waited patiently for the final outcome.Quinn's eyes were welling up with tears, threatening to gush if she so much as blinked.She did her best to hold back her tears—to be strong!Sam pursed his lips in turn, his Adam's apple bobbing.A long while passed, and it felt like a century for Quinn when she finally heard him say, "Yes."Quinn's tears started falling in happiness as Sam declared loudly, "I'll marry you, Quinn—it's what I've always wanted to do! I won't let you go even if you regret it eventually! You only get to be with me, and I'll never let any other man claim you! I'll become very overbearing… eventually!""I won't regret it," Quinn said, determined.She certainly would not regret marrying him!Zoe walked up to them with perfect timing just then, and Sam did a double take.He finally remembered that Zoe was the host of this luncheon and was going to leave with Quinn when Zoe whipped out a small red velvet box."You know what's in here, don't you?" Zoe a

    However, Sam had already pushed Quinn away before she could tell him. But even if he did not love her or did not want to be with her, she would never stay with Ryan.She had been disappointed in Sam, wondering why he would give up so easily.Was she that unimportant to him?Therefore, if it were not for Zoe and Cordy showing her that video or telling her so much, she would never have known that he loved her for years…Sam's heart ached even as he looked into Quinn's tearful eyes.He reached out a hand, but soon withdrew it—would he not burden her?Even so, it hurt to restrain himself as he watched her, and he was actually getting the feeling that Quinn loved him…But she already had Ryan's child…Well, he was fine with that, as long as the child was Quinn's.But would she not mind?"I will marry you, Sam," Quinn said slowly and clearly then. "Not because you're a good man, not because you prepared so much for me, and not because of how much you prepared for me, but because I

    Everyone in the hall was staring at Sam and Quinn, while Quinn took center stage, staring fixedly at Sam.He stood in the middle of the crowd, watching her silently.She in turn felt fear that he would turn and leave, just as she did not know if she had the courage to stand before him again and to declare her feelings for him in front of so many others.Nonetheless, amid the deafening silence, Sam suddenly walked toward the stage.His pace was slow as if his feet were made of lead, but he was also unusually determined.Quinn's heart raced uncontrollably right then!Everyone else was watching them nervously, especially Cordy and Zoe, with the latter being especially concerned that the cowardly Sam would bail.Fortunately, he was a man who showed responsibility. He would not leave Quinn alone and embarrassed.Hence, as everyone looked on, Sam stood before Quinn, his gaze flickering as their eyes met.He gulped ever so slightly, his emotions clearly ruffled even as he did his bes

    The guests were encouraging, loudly asking, "Why?!""Because of a woman," Sam's recording replied."Who is it?""Quinn Summer," the Sam on the screen said slowly and clearly, leaving the Sam who was in the hall stunned.What the hell?! That was the proposal video he prepared before! Why did it show up here? Did Zoe make a mistake?!He knew it—leave anything to Zoe, and she would mess it up!He started striding toward the stage, intent on stopping the recording, when John and Bob intercepted him with a look of utter guilt while the recording continued. "Quinn is my wife, and we've been married for years, but I've never really loved her—not because I don't, but because I'm afraid to. I feel too insignificant in comparison to the one she loves, so I'd always hurt her… painfully and childishly. I regret that so much now, Quinn. How could I have abandoned you for so long because of my own jealousy? I'd rather hold you in my sleep every night, but my damned pride denied me that for y

    At the banquet hall, Jay and Zoe were thanking their guests with their children in their arms.Then, Zoe announced excitedly, "Please give my best friend, who is also my son's godmother, a warm applause as she comes on stage!"Sam stood at a corner of the hall, watching as Quinn walked up the stage, only realizing just then that her belly was clearly swelling despite her baggy clothes.Time flies—he had not left that long ago, but she and Ryan already had a child.She was not worried about giving him a stroke, was she?He watched as Quinn took the mic and looked around below searching, seemingly searching.After a while, he thought she was looking at him, but by the time he looked up, she had already turned away.Maybe she was looking for Ryan before remembering that Ryan was not there?Nonetheless, Quinn spoke into the mic, saying, "I'm honored to be chosen as the godmother to Zoe's son, and she's been saying he'd be engaged to my child if it's a girl. I already love my godson

    As their eyes met, Sam turned frantic and averted his. "Of course.""Really?" Quinn asked."Would I lie to you?" Sam asked a little grumpily."And you didn't bring her back?" Quinn asked."I'm on a schedule, and it'd be taxing for her if I bought her along," Sam said, making things up as he went along. "I'll bring her along when things are less busy.""Is she pretty?" Quinn pressed."What, have I ever picked an ugly one?" Sam snorted smugly. "You know I prefer curvaceous types, and there are plenty of those abroad.""Do you have a photo?"Sam was silent for a while and eventually said, "Yeah.""Can I see it?""What, does she have to pass your assessment?""Just curious about the girl who can tempt you to settle down," Quinn replied. "You'd be humbled." Sam hastily came up with an excuse."I won't," Quinn said, determined."You'll see her when I bring her home." Sam refused nonetheless."I would like to see a photo now.""No, she's not that photogenic. It'd be slander a
