A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1443
Sam suddenly said mysteriously, "I'm taking you someplace nice.I've never brought anyone there aside from my friends— it's a
place you won't forget."
Quinn was actually hopeful then—Sam might just surprise her, and the movie might just be a mishap.
Eventually, they arrived at a quiet port, and Sam alighted with Quinn after parking her car.
The pavement was uneven and Quinn could not walk properly in her heels, but she decided to bear with it for the sake of good
food.
There was no restaurant in sight even as they reached a pier, and Quinn eventually found Sam beckoning to her from a boat—
not the luxury type playboy types hung out in, but a crude one.
"Are we dining at sea?"
Quinn could admit that she was hopeful, but Sam never answered as he took her hand and got onboard.
The boat ride was exceedingly bumpy, and Quinn was certainly scared since she could not swim.
"Woo hoo!"
As she clenched on the handrail while waves splashed against the boat, Sam was whooping repeatedly in excitement.
On the other hand, Quinn could not manage a sound, even as she was drenched from head to toe as a wave splashed her.
She could imagine the mess that was her face and hair, especially the makeup and hairdo she went out of her way to prepare.
Even her flowery dress...and the fact that she was on her period! Quinn gritted her teeth but told herself to bear with it, convinced
that Sam would surprise her.
However, it was less a surprise than a chain of shocks.
As the boat stopped at a terrible looking beach with a scattered feel of rundown houses, Quinn walked on her barefoot over the
beach, feeling pebbles digging into her soles.

Once again, she bore with it, and followed Sam to the so- called nice restaurant...which turned out to be some plain hut, which
had nothing going for it.
They sat down by a broken table, and Sam watched her looking unhappy even as he said, "The fishermen here go out to sea
every day, so it's very fresh.We don't have to order anything either—they'll serve anything they caught for the day."
However, Quinn was not interested no matter how it would taste—she was already worn out after traveling all the way here just
for this.
Sam did not elaborate either, since he was convinced that Quinn would understand that it was all worth it once the food was
served.
Soon, a waiter brought the dishes.
There were fish, crab, prawn, and the like—the menu was certainly extensive.
"Try it," Sam told Quinn, watching her excitedly just like a child.
Not wanting to kill the mood, Quinn picked up her fork and knife...only for Sam to tell her, "Don't use those.Eating with your
hands is much better."
Quinn was speechless—she came here for a date! She prettied herself up so that she could nurture her marriage with Sam, not
to booze with him!
