A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1493-Having confirmed the time, there was nothing left to say- Sam and Quinn simply sat there in silence.
After a long while, Sam suddenly stood up.
As Quinn looked at him, he said, “I’m going now.”
He left without waiting for her response and did not stop, just like when he left the capital early before.
Quinn’s vision was blurred by tears as she watched Sam go further and further away…
The next day, Quinn and Sam arrived at the civil bureau as agreed.
Sam was there first and waited for Quinn outside.
He saw her alighting in the distance and talking to someone in the car.
Sam could tell it was Ryan even without looking, and averted his eyes, fiddling with his lighter.
He can smoke in a public space like this, so this was the only way to get his fix.
Quinn then jogged up to Sam. “Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“No, I was early,” Sam replied, sliding his lighter into his pocket. “Let’s go in.”
They headed inside, and Sam passed Quinn the divorce agreement as they waited in line. “Check if there’s anything you’re unhappy about. I brought the
USB drive and the file can be edited at any moment.”
Sam actually showed it to her last night-they did not have child custody to fight for nor monetary issues, but Sam insisted on paying her three million.
Quinn refused, but Sam insisted it was alimony, so she did not argue-it was pocket change for Sam anyway.
It was a clean divorce, and they owed each other nothing.
That alone made that worth it for Sam.
However, after they signed the application for divorce, they were told that there was a month-long cooling-off period.
Quinn looked up, staring blankly at Sam who clearly had no idea.
As such, they could only file for the application and leave the bureau, with Sam saying, “Let’s come here again next month.”

“I’m going now,” Sam said before adding nonchalantly, “Do you need a ride?”
“No,” Quinn replied, shaking her head. “Ryan’s waiting for me in the car.”
“Yeah.” Sam did not press the issue and turned to leave.
Quinn suddenly felt like she was used to watching him leave and turned away.
Taking a moment to compose herself, she then returned to Ryan’s car.
“Is it done?” he asked.
“There’s a one-month cooling-off period,” Quinn said bluntly.
Ryan actually remembered that just then, but he could not force her to break the law despite his displeasure. “Let’s come here again in a month.”
“Yeah.”
“Let’s go home,” Ryan said, reaching out to take her hand.
Quinn hesitated but did not push him away.
The month soon passed..
