All Chapters of Goodbye, Saintess.: Chapter 331 - Chapter 340

"I don't want to leave Mommy or Daddy! I don't wanna! Am I a bad kid? Is that why I can't have both Mom and Dad?" Bobby sobbed.Edmund's eyes filled with silent tears.Hera felt as if her heart had been wrung dry. She was an Awakenist. How could she justify tearing a child away from a parent?Hera sighed. "Alright, Edmund. Take Bobby back to Astergrad. I still have a small chalet in the suburbs. Here's the key. Stay there for now. "We shouldn't meet again until I've found a way to balance my commitment to Sebastian with helping you. I'll do everything I can to make sure you and Bobby live comfortably. This is all I can offer right now."Edmund's tears stopped instantly. He took the key, wiping his face dry. "You've always been kind, Hera. I knew it back when we were in school."He smiled, but the corners of his lips tightened too much."All I ask is that you stay away from Sebastian. Please. I can't lose him," Hera said firmly.Edmund nodded without hesitation. "Of course. I k

Edmund suddenly shoved his son ahead of him. "M-My son is right here, Sebastian! T-Think about that!"I didn't even bother to hide my contempt. "Get your men to back down, Jackie. You don't want to dirty your hands with the snots of a coward who uses his own son as a human shield."Jackie nodded. "Yes, sir!"He waved, and the thugs retreated to the side.Edmund finally felt safe enough to resume his usual barking. "You think you're so tough, huh, mixing with gangs? You're only dooming yourself! Even if you somehow make them obey you, you won't become anything more than a useless loser. So don't try to fight me for Hera—"Suddenly, a procession of rare luxury cars approached, moving in an orderly yet no less grand fashion.Edmund's jaw dropped.Beauclab elites and socialites emerged one after another. Sam stepped out of the leading car, paced toward me with deferential poise, and signaled the others."Congratulations on your speedy recovery, Mr. Roger Grimwald!" they boomed in u

With that, I led the motorcade from the hospital straight to the new villa Sam had gifted my parents. I glanced in the rearview mirror, watching them trail obediently behind me, and smiled in satisfaction.These people knew exactly what I needed them for. They were sharp enough to understand. God, I love people like them.My mother scanned the road and the scenery and said, "Ian, I don't think this is where our home is.""Well, I bought a new house for both of you! Let's stay there instead of that old shack," I replied. "And don't worry about the people behind us. They're my friends and business partners. From now on, if you need anything or if something happens and I can't get there immediately, you can call them."My parents exchanged unimpressed looks."You bought a mansion or something for us? Why didn't you talk to us before making a decision on our behalf?" my mother asked. "And why do your friends look like criminals? What are those tattoos? What kind of company are you kee

"Your old man is right! Nat has been showing up more and more these days. This is your chance to hang out with her… and then, wedding bells! Honeymoon! Grandchildren! Please, one every year!""What name should we give our grandson and granddaughter?" my father started wondering aloud.The conversation was getting out of hand. I seized the brief distraction and ran. "Maybe next time? I still need to go to Beaushire tomorrow morning!""Hey, come back!""Where do you think you're going?!"I ignored my disgruntled parents, closed the door, and collapsed onto the bed, my heart pounding.Me, marrying Nat? I was a soon-to-be divorced man. She had never been in a relationship before. How could they be so sure she'd want to be with me?-The next morning, I had breakfast with my parents before leaving for Beaushire. Now that I had moved my parents into a new home, I no longer had to worry about Hera threatening me over that grant. I could focus entirely on my career.I invited the bigg

"Is this drug… getting stronger by the minute? It's affecting my emotions!"She rushed into the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face. No matter how hard she tried, her heart kept pounding faster, as if it were trying to escape her chest."Is this it? Am I going to succumb to this drug and… lose my chastity? No! Never! I won't let you win! I'll castrate you!" she snarled.She ground her teeth, pulled several needles from her pouch, and rolled the man on the floor onto his back. "I'll remember your face for what you've done to me, fiend! And for your reward, you'll never enjoy another woman again!"She raised the needles, ready to strike his crotch, then froze."S-Sebastian?!" she shouted. The needles slipped from her trembling fingers. "What the heck?!"She could hardly believe the man she had been thinking about nonstop was lying here before her."You found me… somehow. Is this fate? But why under these circumstances? Why are you even interested in me this way?"She col
