A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 1481

Things got awkward once Cordy and John were gone.

Marvin and Lindsay glanced at Sam before turning back to Quinn. "You didn't have breakfast, right? You should go eat."

"Yeah." Quinn nodded and took Sam by the hand. "Sam, you probably haven't eaten since you came very early. Let's eat together."

"I'm not hungry." Sam rejected her coolly.

"You should eat something. It's unhealthy to starve," Quinn insisted.

"No." Sam did not give in.

At the same time, Lindsay laid out all the breakfast bought on a nearby chair.

She avoided looking at Sam, and quietly said, "Just eat together. We bought a lot—Quinn won't be able to finish everything on her own."

Sam paused, glancing for a moment at his mother and quickly turning away.

He did not say no, and Quinn knew that Sam had given in.

Naturally, she was not upset that Sam refused her but accepted Lindsay's offer so easily.

If anything, her heart ached for him—the more she learned about him, the lonelier she realized he was.

Lindsay was clearly at fault and never apologized, but just a simple line from her was enough to make Sam put aside a grudge.

He probably really wanted to be a part of his family.

As Sam and Quinn sat down for breakfast in the hallway, Marvin said, "You two should get some rest at the hotel—we'll watch Ryan during the day. We're really too old to stay up late, so we have to count on you."
