All Chapters of Goodbye, Saintess.: Chapter 471 - Chapter 480

"Women. How are you even supposed to understand them?" I muttered.…Astrid already regretted what she had done. How could she have lost control like that?'I can't believe I kissed him! Sure, there was a reason, but still… What's going to happen to my friendship with Cici now?'And that bastard couldn't wait to kick me out, could he? He made sure I had a new place to stay right away—like he couldn't stand having me around for another second! I get it, you don't like me. But do you have to go this far?''If you hate me that much, then don't come back to the apartment! Don't even show your face!' she fumed silently.Astrid had always excelled at her job. Her skills and experience were impressive, but her love life was a disaster. Like Claire, she drew plenty of attention from men, yet none of them ever seemed worth saying yes to.Then she finally met a man who made her heart skip, and he turned out to be the very same man her best friend had fallen for. Now she was stuck living u

"Fine, fine." It was not like I could see anything with my eyes closed.As I kept massaging her, though, Astrid started acting strangely. I could feel her entire body trembling."W-Wait! Don't… touch there! Your hand is… going too high up!" she finally stammered, flustered and red-faced.I pulled my hand back at once. "I'm so sorry! I couldn't tell how far I'd gone! I couldn't see!"Her legs were long and lean. I could easily find the right spots on a foot, but a leg? That was much harder to figure out by touch alone."Now you're going too low," she muttered.With a sigh, she lifted my hand delicately. "Ugh. I'll hold your hand and place it myself.""Okay!" I said, trying to sound casual.I had no idea how red her cheeks had gotten.…Tingling sensations ran up her leg. Her heart was already racing just from being near him, but now? Controlling her own desire was nearly impossible.Could she ask him to stop? Sure. But she didn't want to. Because, god, his massage felt amazin

Meanwhile, across the city, Luke stumbled into a luxury car looking utterly disheveled. His clothes were wrinkled, his hair a mess, and his face pale with exhaustion and fear.Inside the car, besides the driver, sat Terry.Luke's eyes were bloodshot, his voice hoarse. "Mr. Amos, I followed every instruction you gave me! But something went wrong. Sebastian somehow figured out the formula was fake. He must have someone powerful backing him! I did everything I could. This isn't my fault! Mr. Amos, please—let my son go!""Dr. Skye, look at yourself," Terry drawled, his tone full of mockery. "Why are you panicking? The job failed, and before I've even decided how to deal with you, you're already trying to negotiate?""No… I wouldn't dare!" Luke's body trembled, his face tight with fear.Terry picked up a cup of freshly ground coffee and took a slow sip, savoring it as if time itself waited for him. Only after a long pause did he open his eyes and glance coldly at the doctor."I know w

My thoughts stirred, and I asked without hesitation, "Oh? Which pharmaceutical factory are you with, and where are you located?""We're Altos Pharmaceutical. Our factory's right on the outskirts of Astergrad!" The woman on the phone sounded refreshingly straightforward.Altos Pharmaceutical… Outskirts of Astergrad… I knew that name well. When Sleeping Giant first began searching for pharmaceutical partners, they were the first factory we approached.And Jeanine's report back then? Altos had rejected us the hardest.Now, just when I urgently needed a manufacturer, they suddenly called out of nowhere. There was no way this wasn't shady. No one with a brain would believe otherwise."Altos Pharmaceutical," I said flatly. "I contacted you before, and you refused to work with us. Now you want to cooperate? Dream on. No need. Goodbye."I hung up immediately.Exactly as expected. Sleeping Giant's troubles weren't just random setbacks. They were part of a larger, deliberate setup."The

Even with the fox mask hiding her face, I knew her the moment she stepped out.Her figure, her walk, her posture—I'd memorized every detail."Hera?" The name slipped out before I could stop it.The woman stiffened. When she spoke, surprise and unmistakable delight colored her voice. "I disguised myself this much, and you still recognized me at a glance? Sebastian, that proves you still love me. You never forgot me."She pulled off the mask without hesitation. That same beautiful face appeared—delicate features, soft makeup. The sight triggered an old memory I'd rather have forgotten.She caught the confusion in my eyes and smiled like she was offering a gift."Don't say those hurtful things. They wound us both." Her tone softened. "The makeup I wore today is the same as when we went on our first date. It feels familiar, doesn't it? Do you like it?"She lowered her gaze, pretending to be shy, and approached me slowly, step by step.The young woman who once made my heart race now
