A Life Debt Repaid

In the other chat group, Cordy was assuring Quinn. [You’re being paranoid. Zoe and I both think that Sam has changed a lot.]

Quinn replied: [I think so too, and I was even happy that he made amends. But he’s not the type to stay still, and I guess I expected too much from him-l wouldn’t have been so disappointed otherwise.]

Cordy typed: [Sam was a hellraiser, but I think he’s an earnest man. Given his personality, I don’t think he’d hide an affair if he really was having one.]

While Quinn was left stunned, Zoe simply watched, afraid to butt in just in case she misspoke.

At the same time, she was impressed with how persuasive Cordy was.

If it were her, she would never be able to convince Quinn of Sam’s innocence without exposing him.

Cordy then replied: [Think about it. What is Sam like? Would he hide anything from you after being married to you for so many years?]

[That’s why you shouldn’t overthink this. Maybe he’s just up to something he can’t talk to you about yet, and one should always have faith in marriage. Give each other time so that your marriage improves-it takes time for two people to slowly get used to each other.]
