Chapter 1459
Sam said, "There's no misunderstanding. I have behaved questionably-l suddenlyjust came around."
"How? Because your father was hospitalized?"
"Yes, it certainly was a huge blow," Sam said earnestly." Even as a child, I always thought of him as a titan-a hero
who would pillar the family. It never crossed my mind that he would age or get sick, and that one day, it would be
up to me to do the same."
Marvin was listening nearby and clearly touched by Sam's words.
He was certainly rejoicing-he never imagined that Sam would become such a good son.
"Also, there's also my wife, Quinn," Sam said.
As he turned toward her, she was actually surprised to suddenly be named.
Still, Sam continued, "She helped me a lot, standing by my side as I took over management of Saunderia and

encourage me. Her contribution was necessary for me to calm down and focus on my work."
Quinn's heart was racing-she did not expect Sam to praise her in front of so many journalists.
"But there have been rumors that your marriage is on the rocks and your relationship is strained."
"Certainly not," Sam said confidently. "Things are going well between us. I won't deny that I've misbehaved
constantly in the past and caused our marriage to be strained, and that's on me. However, I no longer behave that
way now."
"Are you taking a U-turn and declaring your affection for Mrs. Saunders now?" another journalist teased.
Sam did not argue and actually blushed just then.
The journalists were all stunned-when the paparazzi took photos of him, he would verbally or physically attack
them... When did he become so shy?!
Quinn was left emotional by Sam's words and actually decided to not hold his recent distant behavior against him,
including the fact that they had yet to do the deed.
"By the way, why isn't Ryan Saunders around? Isn't he coming back?" another journalist suddenly said then. "Mr.
and Mrs. Saunders really offered him to the nation, huh?"
Lindsay replied, "Thank you for your concern, but he's coming back. He just couldn't take the day off yesterday, so
he had to return today."
"Word has it that he's still single. Are you worried about that? If
"I'd be lying to say I'm not. However, he was smart even as a child, and he has his goals in life. We should respect
his decisions."
"That's a very open-minded view, Mr. and Mrs. Saunders. I'm sure Ryan will be grateful for you," the journalist
flattered.
Marvin and Lindsay were beaming from the praise.
At the same time, Sam felt a little disappointed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had sensed his parents' pride toward Ryan when the journalist praised his brother.
Perhaps it was his childhood trauma talking—Ryan was the only one who ever got praised around the house.
Quinn seemed to pick up on his mood, however, and subtly reached out to take his hand.
Feeling the warmth of her palm, Sam turned to Quinn, and they shared a smile.
The journalists took as many photos as they could right then —there was no hiding the love in one's gaze.
"Mr. Saunders, now that your younger son has taken over management of Saunderia, would he have a bigger share
when it comes to splitting the assets?"
Marvin frowned-the question had never crossed his mind before the journalist mentioned it, and he actually had no
answer for it.
At that very instant, Lindsay's phone started ringing.
It was a call from an unfamiliar number, and it went unanswered. She hesitated for a little too long.
However, a text message arrived at the very next moment. [Your son, Ryan Saunders, was involved in a traffic
accident. Please reply if you see this message.)
