Chapter 1320
Everyone was waiting quietly in the hallway, and Sam was amongst them.
Around two or three hours later, the doors to the operating room opened, and the surgeon stepped outside.
Everyone surrounded him right then. "How is he, doctor?"
"Don't worry-he's not in danger."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Quinn did so too, although her eyes were on Sam.
"How are his legs? He was squeezed beneath the dashboard when he crashed," Sam asked calmly then.
"He was brought in just in time—any later and he would need amputation," the doctor said generously. "But thanks
to the timely intervention, he'll make a full recovery without any issues. It would take a while since it is a serious
fracture, though."

Sam nodded silently, relieved just then.
Just as the patient was wheeled out of the operating room, hurried footsteps and cries could be heard from the
other end of the hallway. "What happened to my son? How is he?"
It was the racer's parents-Quinn could see from afar that they were wobbling and were tearing up even as they
hurried
to their son.
They were on the verge of a breakdown when they saw their son covered in bandages, with the racer's mother
almost fainting.
"He's fine, ma'am," one of the racers assured her. "He's not in danger, and the doctor said he was brought in just in
time. He'll make a full recovery, although it would take him a while since the fracture was quite serious."
The parents started to cry tears of joy-if something really bad happened to their son, they would definitely be
overwhelmed.
Lunging at their son's stretcher, they shouted his name in agitation while following the medical staff toward the
patient wards.
The others started to file out of the hospital, with a couple who were close with the racer staying with his parents.
Quinn followed Sam toward the hospital entrance, while Bob sighed nearby. "Well, that was exciting..."
"Sam Saunders?"
Someone was suddenly calling out to Sam, and they turned to see the racer's mother.
She hurried to Sam, catching his sleeve excitedly as she cried, "Thank you... I heard you did everything to save my
son, or he would’ve been-"
"It's just what I should do, ma'am," Sam assured her. "He’s fine now, and that's all that matters."
"Oh, I really don't know what to say... but thank you. Not only did you save my son, but you also saved our family... I
don't know if my husband and I can live without our boy... Thank you..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSam talked to her for a while as she thanked him repeatedly for a long while, even bowing to him before she left.
Watching her go, Bob could not help saying, "You really saved a family there, brother. It suddenly feels like you're
noble."
Sam was speechless.
As they returned to their car, Bob and Sam continued chatting incessantly again, while Quinn stayed with them,
silent as a stone.
They soon returned to their rooms at the hotel, with Quinn still staying in the same one as Sam.
As for Sam, the first thing he did once he got back to the hotel was to order room service-it had been a long day,
and they had not eaten even though it was already past 8 PM.
After he made the order, he started toward the bathroom...
"Sam," Quinn suddenly called out to him.
Sam paused, pursing his lips.
Still, he turned toward her and found her eyes welling with tears again...
It seemed to have been happening the whole day, too- whether he was racing, saving that driver, or being thanked.
Anyone who did not know better would think that she was emotional, but Sam knew that she was angry, with him
always deciding on everything on his own!
