Chapter 1387
A Life Debt Repaid
Quinn hesitated for a moment, but she eventually answered. âYes, Ryan?â
âWhere are you?! Whereâs Sam?! Dad was rushed to the ER again!â Ryan bellowed furiously over the phone.
Quinn froze, though she soon recovered. âWeâll be there right now.â
âWhat is it?â Sam certainly noticed the look on her face.
âYour Dad was rushed to the ER again,â 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. âYou have no right to be near Dad!â
While Sam gritted his teeth, Lindsay glanced at him for a moment. Still, she was more concerned about her husband and asked the doctor, âHowâs my husband?â
âDonât worry, maâam-itâs nothing that serious,â the doctor assured her. too hard when he was having a bowel movement. That increased abdominal pressure and blood pressure, which led to fainting with the lowered blood supply to the brain. Just be more careful-heâs a little weak after surgery, but itâs advisable that he gets out of bed to walk around a little just to help with his bowel movements.â
Lindsay heaved a huge sigh of relief-Marvinâs fainting almost scared the daylights out of her. âOh, thank you, doctor.â
Ryan just happened to visit again, and he helped alert the doctors while wheeling Marvin to the ER.
âItâs alright,â the doctor replied and added, âThe patient should take notice when it comes to his diet as well and ensure intake of high fiber foods. Iâll also prescribe medicine including laxatives should Mr.
Saunders have trouble with bowel movements-just donât push yourself given your bodyâs condition at the moment.â
âYes, doctor. Thank you.â
After the doctor issued further instructions, they brought Mavin back to his ward.
However, no sooner had Marvin lay down in bed than Ryan was already shouting at Sam, âCanât you take care of Dad for just one day, Sam?! Donât you know how scared Mom was when she had to see Dad faint alone? What if I hadnât rushed back on a plane after work earlier?! She was crying! Show some sense of responsibility and stay with them instead of playing around like you always do!â
Sam glowered but stayed silent-he never explained himself anyway.
Quinn quickly said in turn, âHe wasnât playing nor was he being irresponsible. He was working overtime with me at Saunderia.â
âWorking? Overtime?â Ryan was clearly skeptical.
Both Marvin and Lindsay were shocked.
