All Chapters of Goodbye, Saintess.: Chapter 581 - Chapter 590

I was baffled.Naomi met my gaze with a look of genuine surprise. "You're Sebastian Grimwald, then? The dark horse of Astergrad! The CEO of Sleeping Giant!"And Jeanine Baxter is your secretary, who used to be one of the best employees at Baron Inc., right?"Oh, and the drugs everyone clamors for? Those are formulae written by Astergrad's Goddess of Medicine herself, aren't they?"I stood there stunned. She had managed to recount so much about me and my company. "How the hell did you know all of that?"Maybe she could research Jeanine's and my job titles and history. But Metis' involvement was classified. It was our trade secret.A haughty smile crept across Naomi's beautiful face. "Never ask a woman for her secret, mister. Give me some time, and I can even uncover all of your relationship history."I waved her off. I had not expected her to be such a skilled researcher, and I certainly had not expected her to act this juvenile. "Look, let's just get back to business.""You wan

I was baffled. That was not what I had asked.I stared at her, annoyed, and tried again. "Wait. This is all?"*You pervert! What else do you want?!* Naomi was furious, but she needed the higher-ups in the Kingsman Group arrested. She had no choice but to comply.…"No. It's not all. You can… You can tie me up. And play whatever kinky games you want with me, okay? But you have to agree to work with me. And no penetration. That's my bottom line!" Naomi snarled with her head low, then dove onto the bed and buried herself under a comforter.She trembled. In her mind, she cursed Sebastian for what felt like the thousandth time.'Once our partnership ends and the Kingsman Group falls, I'll get you. I'll expose what you did today and ruin your reputation forever,' she thought.'One slip and I'm at a stupid disadvantage. I can't believe this jackass,' she groaned inwardly.…I watched in awkward amusement. Did she really think I was a pervert? I was about to explain when a better idea

"This is how I uncovered their dirtiest secrets. The kind of disgusting stuff they hide in the shadows."I had suspected Naomi was a hacker, but I wanted her to confirm it. Her answer still surprised me. "So… you're like what? Someone from The Matrix?""What? No! That's basically magic. What I can do is obtain data about anything or anyone. I can track people through their phones and other programs. And so on," she said.I had no idea how any of it worked, but I knew she would become a major asset to my company. Modern warfare relied on information, and business worked the same way. With her on board, Sleeping Giant would gain serious ground."You're amazing!" I said."Ha! Don't let my current situation fool you. All I need is the mood for revenge, and then your secrets will cry out, 'Hello, world!'" she said with a smug grin.I pulled my hand back before untying her.She stared at me. "Hey, get back here!"I lifted a brow. "I don't know if you noticed, but you're the one who n

"It's not easy to find a veteran," I muttered as I stepped into the market.I scanned the job postings, the crowd, and the mix of skills on display.The place brimmed with graduate students. Not one fit the profile I needed."God, how am I gonna find a veteran like this?" I murmured, shaking my head while I moved through the stalls.An hour slipped by. I was about to give up when I reached a small opening occupied by several middle-aged men with grime on their skin. They had no academic certificates and no advantage of youth. They waited in hope that some employer would notice them before they had to leave the marketplace.Each man had written his abilities on a piece of cardboard. One could fix roofs. One knew sewer maintenance. Others offered general labor.One man stood out. He looked clean and well groomed. His olive-dark skin and straightforward expression gave him an honest, guileless look, yet something in his posture hinted at long years of discipline and training.I had

Emil's eyes were bloodshot as he growled, "Fuck you!""Well, if you're such a tough guy, come and fight me. I heard the military only takes boys who eat crayons. Aren't you one of them?" the man taunted.Emil balled his fist. If looks could kill, the man would have turned to ash. Even so, Emil could not raise a hand against a compatriot, since he was a veteran who had sworn to protect his nation, which included idiots like this. His past identity held him back.I had no such restraint. I was tired of these loudmouths and needed them to shut up in the only way that worked for me. I slapped the man as hard as I could."Who the hell do you think you are, you pest?" I snarled. "How dare you disrespect our veterans? Without them, you wouldn't have survived this long."Emil shoved the man away and stared at me in disbelief. "S-Sir, I…"I waved him off and glared at the others. "Does bullying a sick woman make you feel like real alpha men? Does it make you feel like you've got your big
