Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 323 I chuckled and continued the massage . " Oh , come on . I still haven't gotten used to seeing myself as a CEO . Not long ago , I was just a firefighter . Work meant constant brushes with death . Lives were at stake , and I didn't even count my own . " You always feel like you're racing against Death himself . You learn a few things as a firefighter . First aid , and somehow ... massaging . I picked it up because I used to sprain my ankles during missions too , haha ! " " Gee , you should be a CEO instead , " Natasha remarked . " Why ?

She had taken it for granted back then , but now she knew it had been a privilege , not a right . How she missed that privilege . She chuckled forlornly .

I think his dad got sick . " " His hometown's pretty humble , right ? Beauclab . That's a pretty remote place . " +25 Bonus Hera's eyes widened . " Dad's sick and you didn't even tell me ? Sebastian ! How could you ?! " She slammed the accelerator and drove home . She pulled out her suitcase and began packing while calling her assistant . " Morgan !
