A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1454

In the other chat group, Cordy was assuring Quinn. [You’re being paranoid. Zoe and I both think that Sam has changed a lot.]

Quinn replied: [I think so too, and I was even happy that he made amends. But he’s not the type to stay still, and I guess I expected too much from him-l wouldn’t have been so disappointed otherwise.]

Cordy typed: [Sam was a hellraiser, but I think he’s an earnest man. Given his personality, I don’t think he’d hide an affair if he really was having one.]

While Quinn was left stunned, Zoe simply watched, afraid to butt in just in case she misspoke.

At the same time, she was impressed with how persuasive Cordy was.

If it were her, she would never be able to convince Quinn of Sam’s innocence without exposing him.

Cordy then replied: [Think about it. What is Sam like? Would he hide anything from you after being married to you for so many years?]

[That’s why you shouldn’t overthink this. Maybe he’s just up to something he can’t talk to you about yet, and one should always have faith in marriage. Give each other time so that your marriage improves-it takes time for two people to slowly get used to each other.]

Quinn was actually convinced-Sam never hid any of his affairs in the past and would have no reason to do that now.

While she really could cry from sheer frustration before, she was now clearly relieved and would be depressed if not for Cordy.

Zoe agreed. [Cordy’s right. You shouldn’t overthink this— even someone like me who has a low opinion of Sam thinks he’s changed, so don’t get the wrong idea.)

Quinn replied: [Okay, I won’t.]

As the conversation moved on, Zoe texted Sam in their secret chat group. [You’re acting too suspicious, Sam. Quinn’s suspecting you of having an affair!]

Sam did not notice the message right away since he was at the meeting and only saw it an hour later when he returned to the office.

He promptly replied: [Don’t I deserve some trust?!]

Zoe replied: [How, given your past behavior?]

Sam was left dumbfounded, and it was a while later when he finally replied: [So what do I do? I don’t want her to misunderstand!]

Zoe then responded: [Quinn’s complaining that you don’t want to get it on with her. And in most spousal arguments, humping helps. If that doesn’t work, do it twice.]

Sam promptly refused. [Nope.]

Zoe was left frowning. [Hold on, did you let loose too much

that you can’t perform anymore? Is that why you’re finally interested in Quinn now?! Scumbag! How could you do this to her?!]

Sam was speechless and typed so hard his keyboard was clacking. [I’m perfectly fit! I can go a dozen rounds in one night!]

Being in the same office with him, Quinn could not help glancing at him.

Who was he talking with? Did he have to get so agitated?!

Still, even after having decided not to overthink as Cordy and Zoe told her, she was still left wondering what Sam was upto.

In the secret chat group, Cordy messaged: (Ahem. Please be civilized.]

At the same time, Sam took a deep breath to calm down. [ I’m just serious about doing my best for her. Our first time wasn’t pleasant.]

Zoe, the gossip queen, asked: [How so?]

Sam replied: [Not telling. Anyway, I’ll do it only after Quinn accepts my proposal. It’ll be a night to remember.]

Zoe replied: [Tut, tut. Turned over a new leaf, have we?] Sam typed: [Shove it.]
