Chapter 1474
’I'm sorry, Mrs. Saunders," Quinn replied, avoiding Lindsay's question. "I may be upset too since what happened in
the past couple days can get on anyone's nerves. I'll do my best to show restraint after this-l'm getting changed
now. I'll talk to Ryan."
As Quinn left, Lindsay wheeled on Marvin, who sighed. "She's right— everyone's upset after what happened, but we
can't take it out on others because of that. It's unfair to anyone."
"I'm just-'
"You're the one who told me how much Sam changed, and said we should make it up to him after owing him so
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmuch, so why are you so upset with him now? He stayed here alone keeping watch the entire night without sleep,
and he needs it no matter what happens. How else would he be able to take over while we rest?! Don't forget that
we're too old to stay up for too long."
Lindsay remained indignant. "Then why would Sam tell Ryan about the amputation?! The doctor had orders to keep
Ryan in the dark, and even if we neglected Sam, it's unbelievable why he would do something like that!"
"You're wrong about that too. Did you really think Sam would do that?" Marvin shot back. "I've made personal
inquiries among the executives about Sam's management, and they all agreed that he's understanding and knows
what he's doing. There was no negligence under his leadership."
"That's why I'm upset. I thought he's better than this-"
"Did it cross your mind that Ryan guessed it himself?" Marvin cut her short.
While Lindsay appeared stunned, Marvin continued, "You know how smart Ryan can be. Did you think he wouldn't
know just because Sam kept quiet?! And it's Ryan's own body—he can feel it better than anyone. Sam just
happened to be in the room, and thus the misunderstanding."
Marvin was himself upset at first, but things became clearer as he calmed down, and now he was actually
convinced about that misunderstanding.
Even so, Lindsay stubbornly argued, "Sam never said anything-"
"He's more introverted than we think," Marvin explained. "Think about it— he’s basically inconsequential aside from
the time he got notorious for messing around with women every other day. I don't even remember when he ever
spoke up at the family's dinner table."
When Lindsay was finally left speechless, he assured her, "Don't be too hard on yourself. We're just all very upset
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmright now, but we're family. Sam will understand once things cool off. Now, let's just wait to see if Quinn is able to
reason with Ryan."
Lindsay stared at Marvin but ultimately kept quiet.
Quinn entered the ICU after changing into scrubs.
Ryan looked even more tragic up close, and it hurt to look.
"Ryan," Quinn called out to him, her voice choking with tears.
Despite the many unpleasant things between them, they were in a crisis and they were still family, so she could not
hate Ryan or actually turn her back on him.
