All Chapters of Goodbye, Saintess.: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Hera could accept that her company had collapsed. She owed money, and debts had to be paid. She had accepted that as well. However, no matter how those men mocked or shoved her around, she could endure it.But one thing Hera would never allow—no one insulted Sebastian in front of her."You still got the nerve to talk back?" sneered the man with the gold chain. "No one can compare? No one can replace? Hah!"He spat on the ground, his tone dripping with contempt. "Then why don't you get your man to pay off your debts, huh?"Hera stayed silent. Tears rolled down her cheeks and fell onto the dirt. Of course she wanted to see Sebastian again. But he didn't want to see her. Maybe even Lord Zeno had denied her that chance.'Lord Zeno, you guided me here. You told me to climb this mountain, to pray with all my heart and hope I could meet him again. So why? Why does it have to end like this?'Her heart twisted painfully as more tears streamed down her face. Her hands clenched into tight f

Zlatan let out a greasy chuckle, though the vicious glint in his eyes was impossible to miss.Hera trembled, clutching me even tighter."No, my husband's rich," she said desperately, her voice quivering. "A few hundred is nothing to him. It's just pocket change!"Her eyes filled with tears as she looked up at me. "Sebastian, I know I hurt you before. I was wrong. Back then, I was just too busy. But later on, I helped our parents solve that issue, didn't I?"I frowned, caught off guard. "You solved it?" Hera nodded quickly, her words stirring memories I had long buried.After she rejected me that day, I'd been cornered and out of options. I had taken out a loan to deal with my parents' sudden financial crisis. But two days after I sent the money, they transferred it all back, saying everything had been handled and no one was coming after them anymore.So that was her doing?For a moment, my expression softened. I didn't know what to feel—anger, surprise, or something else entir

"Ms. Bishop, you'll understand once you see for yourself," the abbot said gently.He offered no further explanation and led Hera through the temple's quiet corridors until they reached a secluded side hall. With a small nod, he turned and left her there.Hera hesitated for a moment, then pushed open the wooden door."Is it you?" a man's voice called from inside. "I knew you'd come looking for me!"Her heart skipped a beat, her pulse quickening with confusion and anticipation."It's me, Ira," the man said, his voice thick with emotion as he turned toward her. "I'm back!"When she saw his face clearly, her eyes widened in disbelief."Edmund?" Her tone shifted from surprise to ice in an instant. "Why are you here?"Edmund ignored the chill in her voice. He stepped forward eagerly, trying to pull her into his arms."Don't touch me." Hera's expression hardened as she stepped back. "If I'd known it was you, I wouldn't have come at all. Leave. Don't disturb my peace."She turned to

Trouble? I frowned slightly."Alright," I said. "Wait for me. I'll head over now."The moment I hung up, I stood, grabbed my jacket, and prepared to leave for the university.If she had been just another professor, I might not have cared so much. But she wasn't. She was connected to me—and more importantly, she was Claire's best friend. If I could help her, I would."Mr. Grimwald, there's a business partner here to see you," Dan called from outside the office, followed by a polite knock.I opened the door. Dan looked a bit startled to see me, and beside him stood a middle-aged man in a crisp suit, looking both anxious and eager."I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Grimwald," the man said quickly, nearly bowing. "I know you're busy, but I've come all the way from Sazaar. Time is tight, and I truly hope we can work together!"He hurried to pull a folder from his briefcase and handed it to me. "Mr. Grimwald, this is our company's proposal. We're the largest pharmaceutical distributor i

Gordon's voice carried through the entire room.The men seated around the table exchanged sly glances. Everyone knew about the shady "arrangements" between Gordon and Kyle, but they acted oblivious, grinning in silence.'A pack of disgusting bastards,' Astrid thought bitterly.Her jaw tightened as she muttered under her breath, "A bunch of filthy scum.""This is the trouble you mentioned?" I asked, frowning.Even from a few lines of their conversation, I could tell something was very wrong."Yes," she whispered, pressing close against my chest as if clinging to her boyfriend. "Sebastian, please help me."Her voice trembled as she continued, "They said this was a work meeting about departmental transfers, so I came. But when I got here, I realized I was the only female professor invited. It was a setup from the beginning."From the moment dinner started, they kept pushing me to drink. That old beast Gordon even told me to take off my shoes and dance on the table to 'liven things
