Chapter 1480
A Life Debt Repaid
âOkay,â Cordy said.
Quinn then led them to the ICU, and even Cordy felt a little overwhelmed to see Ryanâs condition.
That was despite them being distant from Ryan, as John had mentioned that they never could warm up to each other since Ryan did not like friends.
Moreover, just because they were a little younger, they were all brats to Ryan and beneath him.
However, John still had reason to come visit since Ryan was Samâs brother, and Sam was his best friend.
âHow is he?â Cordy asked.
âMuch better,â Quinn replied. âHe was overwhelmed before, but heâs slowly adjusting-he needs time.â
Cordy noddedâthat would be the case for anyone.
âI believe in him. Heâs always been strong, and heâll pull together once he accepts reality,â Quinn said.
Sam and John were standing beside them, and Sam could hear the affirmation Quinn had for Ryan.
That was true-Ryan was probably all-powerful in her mind, just as everyone else considered him the greatest existence.
As for Sam himself, he was born just to even out the numbers.
âGreat.â Cordy smiled and added, âBut Ryan should rely on himself to overcome eager to push him, Quinn. You should give him more space.â
Cordy did not make it clear, but she meant to say that even if it was important to help Ryan, Quinn should still keep her distance.
Otherwise, there would be many misunderstandings.
âYeah,â Quinn nodded, seeing sense in Cordyâs words.
She thought the same-once he could leave the ICU, she would leave him by himself so that he would learn to take care of himself. Anyone else was just support, and he was the key.
As everyone continued their small talk, Marvin and Lindsay arrived, even bringing breakfast for Quinn.
They were actually surprised to see Cordy and John, though they enthusiastically welcomed them.
John did help them when Saunderia was in a crisis, a favor Marvin and Lindsay constantly kept in mind.
âCordy, Johnny,â they greeted them, only casting Sam a passing glance despite clearly seeing him.
Sam did not greet them in turn, making himself appear a stranger.
âWe came to see Ryan,â John said. âWe heard from Quinn that heâs better.â
âHe is, though thereâs no telling if itâd be the same from here. â Lindsay remained clearly worried.
âWith time, it shall,â John assured her.
âI hope. Poor Ryanâ¦â Lindsay sniffled, her eyes red with tears. âHeâs so successful. How could something so unfair happen to him?â
John had no idea what to say, so Cordy said, âNo one couldâve expected this, Mrs. Saunders. Itâs fortunate that Ryan survived such a terrible accident.â
âThatâs one way to think about it.â Lindsay nodded.
âWeâll get going now-my grandfather is just going for his checkup,â Cordy said just then.
âAlright, donât let us keep you⦠Sorry that we canât offer you better hospitality.â
âItâs alright, Mrs. Saunders. You should take good care of your health too.â
âYes, we know.â
Cordy nodded and glanced at Quinn, who nodded in turn. With that, Cordy left with John.
