Chapter 1478
Ryan seemed to notice she had been sleeping outside and wanted to send her away. "Quinn, you don't have to stay
with me all the time.”
"No, your parents insisted that I stay with you until they're back," Quinn said, rejecting him right away.
"That's unnecessary," Ryan said. "There's no reason to put everyone through so much."
"It doesn't matter as long as you get better."
"Get better..." Scorn was clear in Ryan's eyes.
"I've told you, Ryan-it doesn't matter if you're missing a limb. " Quinn did her best to reason with him. "You have
such a great mind that can still contribute to the world. Have you forgotten your ambition? Are you giving up
already?"

Even so, he was just aggrieved.
How did this happen to him?! It was just so unfair!
His work has merit and contributes to humankind, and this was what he got? How was he going to stay calm and
rational in this world with a missing leg?!
"You have to be strong Ryan," Quinn said.
"Quinn," Ryan said, and Quinn watched as he worked hard to extend his hand.
"Do you want a drink?" she quickly asked.
"No," Ryan said. "I want to hold your hand."
Quinn did a double take, her first reaction being to say no.
"Can't I?" Ryan asked.
"No." Quinn quickly pushed his hand down. "I'm worried I'd hurt you with all your injuries."
"I want to feel your warmth," Ryan said. "Without your constant support, I don't know if I can accept this reality.
Thank goodness you're staying with me."
"I will always stay with you," Quinn said, determined.
"Thank you, Quinn," Ryan said earnestly. "I definitely won't let you down."
"Yeah. I believe you."
With that, Ryan kept holding onto her hand, not wanting to let go because this was the only thing driving him to
keep living.
That was if Quinn would always stay with him.
It was certainly a peaceful sight between them, which Sam saw through the window.
He simply looked on in silence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow did he feel just then? He had no idea.
But there was no reason for grief-he just had to accept it.
In reality, he never wanted to come.
He was only human too, and he could feel insulted.
However, he had been drinking the whole night but could not get drunk at a 11—it was not because he was that
good a drinker, but he had been restraining himself constantly.
He knew very well he would have to switch places with his parents and Quinn and could not get too drunk to the
point that he could not get up.
That was why he stopped drinking and went to bed once midnight arrived.
When he woke up, he did not hesitate to come to the hospital.
He did not want to dwell on things too much nor refuse to come at all. Moreover, he expected Quinn would be here
on watch for the night.
