Chapter 1381

Sam's words left Ryan even more furious, perhaps embarrassed because Sam was right.Either way, he was losing control."Watch your mouth, Sam!" Ryan screamed. "When did I ever put the moves on Quinn?!"However, before Sam could respond, Marvin barked at them sternly, "That's enough! How old do you think you are, arguing whenever you meet?! Sam—watch your words, that's your brother you're talking to."Sam sneered in turn—he knew this would happen.Ever since they were children, it was always his fault if he and Ryan ever argued.He certainly remembered that one time he was having swimming practice in the garden's swimming pool, but Ryan told him to stop swimming that early in the morning because it affected his studies. Sam ignored him since he had a swimming competition coming up at school.Ryan simply ran to his parents after that, and they stopped him from swimming just because it affected Ryan.Sam tried to fight back, saying that he had a competition coming up, only for his

Marvin was left ashen faced with frustration in his ward, with Ryan relentlessly goading him. "Sam's supposed to be an adult, but he doesn't care how others feel at all! Others notwithstanding, he'd come here just to upset you while you're in the hospital. He really isn't improving even after all those years…"While Marvin got more frustrated the more he listened, Lindsay quickly tried to calm things down. "Cut it out, Ryan."Ryan put on a scornful look instead. "It's not like I want to say it. He's just such a disappointment!" "Cut it out," Lindsay repeated, a tinge of impatience in her voice this time.Ryan could tell that much and pursed his lips as he kept quiet."I just spoke to your father's physician, and he's fine for now with no issues," Lindsay said then. "He just needs rest. You've been busy too, so you don't have to stay here. I can take care of him.""Are you really fine, Dad?" Ryan asked in concern."I'm much better." Marvin nodded. "I'd be discharged if it wasn't

"What?!" Marvin frowned, surprised that his wife would suddenly say something like that."We only ever cared about Ryan ever since they were children because he's smart and a quick learner, excelling in everything. But we neglected Sam in turn—I don't even remember how many of his birthdays we've celebrated for him."Marvin did a double take and argued feebly, "Birthdays?! He should be learning to man up instead—""But we celebrated Ryan's birthday every time," Lindsay pointed out. "And we'd celebrate Sam's with him just because they were born the same month, never celebrating Sam's birthday by itself. And every time we celebrated Ryan's birthday, everyone would only offer their wishes to Ryan, so that doesn't really count either."Marvin, however, was neither that considerate nor eager to discuss it. "What's gotten into you? Why would they mind? They're brothers, y'know.""Haven't you noticed that Ryan's been making a habit of mocking Sam?" Lindsay told him. "I'm actually getting

Marvin was certainly left dumbfounded by Lindsay's words.Even so, he had gotten used to such preferential treatment toward his boys that it was impossible for him to realize that and change.It was the same for Lindsay too—despite speaking at length on the issue, she had trouble actually changing how she treated Ryan and Sam.Sighing, she said, "Let's just be more understanding of Sam from now on."-Meanwhile, Quinn was absolutely frustrated since she could not catch up with Sam at all.The man was tall and walked very fast—she would never catch up with her short legs, and she was already out of breath before long."Sam!" she cried, but he pretended not to hear and continued onward without a care.Gritting her teeth, Quinn threw herself on the floor and yelled, "Argh!!!"Sam clearly paused, while Quinn stayed on the ground and kept screaming at him, "Sam, I fell! I think I broke something!"Sam finally turned and ran to her side, dropping to a crouch beside her."Where doe

Quinn continued, "You can't blame your parents even though I disagree with them and dislike what they said about you. But if you calm down and think, their prejudice against you is understandable—you were always messing around, while Ryan was smarter and disciplined. All we need to do is have your parents see that you're changing and doing your best, and I'm sure they'll see you in a new light in time. So instead of getting petty with them, prove yourself through your actions instead, alright?"Sam stayed silent, so Quinn had no idea what he was thinking—it was concerning since he had always been radical, and no one could ever force him to do anything he did not like.But now that he had changed, Quinn believed that he must not give up halfway through now."Sam?" she called out to him tentatively."I know," Sam suddenly said, leaving her perplexed.What did he mean?"I mean I know they won't trust me until I show results. It's my fault for being a disappointment before," Sam said

Chapter 1386

Just a day after Sam and Quinn returned to work, the funding John promised arrived.While the board had been unhappy with Sam after his standoffish attitude, they could not help being excited when they received the money. They were certainly surprised that someone as hedonistic as Sam would be able to resolve a major issue like lack of funding! And once they got their money, Sam, Quinn, and the board discussed how they should be channeling the money and setting a list of priorities."I just started work, and I've seen the numbers," Sam said. "Actually, the numbers are all there in my head even when I take a dump."The board was certainly stumped—could he not be a little more refined with his words?Nonetheless, Sam continued to state his opinion. "I must admit that I don't have a deeper understanding of the numbers, but personally speaking, I want to ensure that the employees are paid. I heard from finance that the average employee has their wages delayed for over six weeks, whil

Quinn hesitated for a moment, but she eventually answered. "Yes, Ryan?""Where are you?! Where's Sam?! Dad was rushed to the ER again!" Ryan bellowed furiously over the phone.Quinn froze, though she soon recovered. "We'll be there right now.""What is it?" Sam certainly noticed the look on her face."Your Dad was rushed to the ER again," Quinn said, working hard to stay calm.Nonetheless, Sam stopped working right away and rushed out of his office, and Quinn hurried after him as they both rushed to the hospital.When they arrived, Marvin was already wheeled out of the ER.Sam was going up to Marvin when Ryan stopped him. "You have no right to be near Dad!"While Sam gritted his teeth, Lindsay glanced at him for a moment. Still, she was more concerned about her husband and asked the doctor, "How's my husband?""Don't worry, ma'am—it's nothing that serious," the doctor assured her. "He's just constipated and pushed a little too hard when he was having a bowel movement. That inc

Nonetheless, Quinn continued loudly, "That's not all either—right after we left the hospital, neither Sam nor myself took a break. We headed straight to the office to resume work. Yes, Sam is working very hard now.'Marvin and Lindsay were left obviously stunned. In fact, even if Lindsay had caught on that they had been prejudiced against Sam, she was still surprised and delighted to see him changing dramatically. "Is that true, Sam?"Sam said nothing—he was always stubborn whenever his temper flared, but they were used to taking his refusal to respond as the obvious truth."That's great, Sam! I'm so happy," Lindsay quickly said. "I've been worried that Saunderia would be neglected, but I'm relieved with you around now.""Oh look, he's learning," Marvin said sternly, but he was clearly acknowledging Sam too.And the sight of his parents' change of attitude toward Sam left Ryan fuming—he was the only son who ever got praised, and Sam never got to steal the spotlight from him before

Marvin was earnestly relieved. All he wanted was that capital injection to keep Saunderia standing—anything else could wait!He did not shy away from affirming Sam too. "We really owe you this time, Sam."Though Sam was not too enthusiastic, he replied, "That's mostly thanks to Johnny's help. He gave me the money once I asked and offered me some suggestions on how to resolve Saunderia's issues.""Yes, you should learn from him," Marvin said, pleased nonetheless. "He's always had an acumen for business even as a youth. You've made a good friend."As Sam nodded, Ryan was left seething.He never expected Sam to easily resolve Saunderia's monetary issue. While he would rather Saunderia be safe instead of going bankrupt as well, Sam's contribution still made him uncomfortable.As such, he could resist adding sarcastically, "No friend can protect you for life in the end, and John Levine won't help you again if you fail this time. Don't keep bothering the man when he has company to mana

Sam was a little unnerved—if not shocked—that Marvin and Lindsay were suddenly poring over him.Having no idea how to respond occasionally, he would just nod or stay silent.Ryan looked on, miffed that their parents never ignored him like this.However, he did not get petty about it since he always considered Sam a failure. He never held out much hope in Sam and was convinced that the more hopes put on Sam, the bigger a disappointment Sam would be."It's late. Your dad's fine—both of you should go home," Lindsay said affectionately then.Sam did not refuse—he had an early meeting the next morning and was concerned he would have trouble waking up the next day. He always had trouble waking up early and had to drag himself out of bed by sheer will for a week now.However, Ryan was following them as he and Quinn left Marvin's ward, and they entered the elevator together.The air in the room was suddenly awkward as they were all silent—despite growing up together, they somehow had
