A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 386
[What?!]Quinn could feel Zoe’s surprise even from the other end.There was a long pause before Zoe added: [You're not really sucking up to that dirtbag, are you?][Not entirely.][That's better.][His parents want us to have a child.][…That's why you're trying to suit his tastes?][The Saunders have always been nice to me.][Really?!] Zoe was speechless, but Quinn did not bother to explain. She was just convinced that if she could accept it, resistance was unnecessary.Still, Zoe suddenly changed the subject. [I heard from Bob that Ryan's back.]Quinn replied: [Yeah. He just touched down yesterday and attended Sam's birthday.][And you…][I'm over him. I'm not lying. Sure, I'd feel the occasional emotion, but time really seems to mend everything. There are times when I feel stressed, but I'm somehow very calm when I face him directly.][Does time really change everything?]Zoe's question was posed to Quinn as much as to herself. Quinn replied earnestly: [Well, that'

In the four-man chat group, Bob suddenly sent a text that read: [Why did my girlfriend do this…]He went into elaborate detail, but deleted it in less than text seconds—he was going to send it to Sam, but his fingers slipped!Sam saw it anyway, and promptly replied in the chat group: [What's the point of deleting it, Bob? I already saw it.]Bob didn’t reply, and instead added: [And what else could the point be? To scorn you.] He even pinged Bob multiple times, leaving Bob speechless.Bob in turn texted Sam privately: [It's just a mistake! Could you stop spamming the chat group?!][Oh, so you just wanted to save face?]Speechless, Bob decided to admit: [It's just…things haven't gone that far with me and my girlfriend.][For real?! No way! What are you, a virgin? You're an adult—not a high-schooler!][You don't understand our love. Do you think everyone thinks with their balls like you?][The point is she's hinting at you to get to it, you monster.][You told me that chicks h

It hurt, but it somehow seemed more than that."You can sleep with me all you want. Like, right now," Sam said, deliberately harassing Quinn. After all, he was sick of how she was always so stiff around him. Quinn was naturally scowling, upset with his perverted tendencies. She wanted nothing more than to slap him across the face. The man certainly deserved every insult Zoe had ever thrown at him.Quinn took a deep breath and told herself to calm down…and that was when the door suddenly opened, wide."Quinn…oh!" Syd yelped when she saw Quinn on Sam's lap, and Ryan was standing right behind her.Quinn quickly sprang to her feet, surprised by the sudden intrusion.Sam's fingers were twitching, but he was otherwise much calmer than Quinn. Looking up at the pair standing at the doorway, he said, "There's nothing surprising about a married couple getting frisky."However, Quinn felt thoroughly embarrassed even as she stood beside Sam. She was supposed to be a lawyer, and her

Quinn’s tears trickled down her cheeks and landed gently on the floor. She didn’t remember how long it had been since she cried—she had become accepting of many things as she aged.That was certainly the case when she remained nonchalant, despite Sam throwing her out of his room.But at that very moment, the sense of humiliation cut her to the quick; she was overwhelmed endlessly by the disgrace and denial of dignity.She really, really hated Sam… She hated him ever since they were children! -Jay was woken up by a call, asking to confirm a filming session later that day.His career hadn’t been affected much despite his departure from the Levine family—they were certainly much nicer to him than Zoe ever was.Still, he couldn’t fall asleep after being woken, and he felt a throbbing headache that hurt terribly.Alcohol was terrible. Period. It couldn't even help you forget your pain. In fact, it made the agony worse! He lay in bed and checked the group chat, and saw Bob an

Jay watched as Zoe headed to the distance, and smiled wistfully.It seemed he was the only one who couldn’t get over the past.As he rose to his feet, his whole body seemed frozen stiff.He thought about leaving, but for some reason, he was following Zoe instead, keeping a distance between them as he did.It was very cold and very late, so there weren’t many others on the streets. Zoe was alone…so it was dangerous for her. Zoe didn’t notice she was being followed, since her only thought was to have her apple pie and head back.Soon, she arrived at the stall and made an order. The owner asked her, "Your boyfriend's not with you today?""He's busy," she replied, keeping her head lowered.Even if she was canceled, she was still a public figure. Thus, she didn’t want to be recognized. "You know, your boyfriend’s really nice," the owner chuckled. "He came by this one time, and was worried it'd get cold before he got home, so he kept it under his clothes. Surely you know how hot

Fortunately, Jay only had flesh wounds. The car was stopped in time, and the collision was slight. He had bled a lot on the ground, but his vitals were fine. However, his doctor insisted he stay the night at the hospital for observation.Having issued his instructions, the doctor left, leaving just Jay and Zoe alone.Zoe placed all the bills, papers and medication on top of his bedside drawer, saying, "These are your receipts for admittance, and some of the medicine you need to take and apply. Also, your phone’s broken." Jay stared at her then, with a distant and estranged gaze."Do you want to borrow my phone to call the Levines?" Zoe asked, holding out her phone to him."No," he said, shaking his head.Zoe didn’t push him either, since he never liked to bother the Levines. After all, he had to keep up his appearance to not cause them trouble. "Do you need a care worker?" Zoe asked.Jay refused. "No. It's not that serious.""Okay," Zoe nodded. "I'm leaving if there's noth

Throughout the entire month, Cordy never met John, or received his call or text.Naturally, she was expecting none of that either.She had actually been busy as the Startstream High Fashion made a relatively easy venture into the market and drew plenty of attention. Their sales were rising by the day, and Starstream Group's stock market value was in turn increasing like clockwork, catching up and even surpassing many other elite enterprises of North City. Naturally, they still had a long way from the top since those were legacies forged over multiple generations.But one way or another, her rise was meteoric, and most amongst business circles touted her as the finest dark horse over the last decade.However, she also knew all too well that the widespread acclaim was nothing good.She always understood the principle that too much attention was never good, and even had a suspicion of a certain someone deliberately dragging her to the spotlight. Naturally, she had to play along sin

"Why?" Cordy asked, working hard to keep herself calm."I'll explain when I get back," John replied. "Are you going to announce your wedding date?" Cordy asked bluntly. John was left silent for heartbeats, while Cordy made herself very clear. "It's already expected. It doesn't affect me at all.""That's not all—""You're scarily selfish, John," she said, putting weight behind every word.John felt suffocated right then.At the same time, Cordy continued, "Whether this marriage is by your will or otherwise, Jessica Stuart considers you her partner now. It’s a legitimate relationship, so why would you keep clinging to me? Is this fair to her? Sure, I'm not that much of a saint to sympathize with someone who wants me dead, but it still disgusts me how irresponsible you can be—to her and to me.""I will never marry Jessica Stuart," John repeated, his tone somber and obviously repressing his rage. "That's your business," Cordy snapped, losing control as well. "You can do whateve

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
