Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 355 Metis was walking toward me , but Kevin mistook her approach as coming toward him . " Whoa , sweetheart . Hello ! I'm the leader of the Streamlining Team in this factory . Never met you before . " He continued , " Are you here for a job ? Well , you're in luck . My words carry a lot of weight here . I can make sure you get hired ! Let's add each other on Instagram or something . I make a few thousand dollars every month and just bought a car ... " He flashed his most winning smile and stepped toward Metis , phone in hand .

Metis ignored him and brushed past without so much as a gance . Kevin's smile froze . " Sebastian , shall we continue ? " she said , standing beside me with a smile . I forced myself not to laugh . " Okay . " As we turned to leave , Kevin suddenly blocked our path , pointing a finger at me in furious disbelief . " Stop ! You aren't here with him , right , sweetheart ? He's not your boyfriend , is he ?! " Metis ' expression turned icy . My stomach knotted . How could this idiot pick the one thing that would really set her off ? " We're not here for jobs .

And he's not my boyfriend , " she said coolly . Kevin sighed , then slipped back into Simp Mode . " Phew . That was close . Since you're available , how about giving me a try ? " See , Sebastian is my cousin . I know his family . They've always been struggling . Their finances are nowhere near mine . " I've been making gains working here , too . I've probably surpassed him now , especially since he just became unemployed . Meanwhile , I got promoted to team leader ! " Kevin couldn't resist unloading his résumé on Metis . Unfortunately for him , she only frowned in disinterest . " Wow .

Your cousin literally embodies mediocrity - from his looks to his skills . He's been working for years , and all he's earned is a tiny promotion to team leader ? How is his hypothetical partner ever going to be happy That was all it took to set Kevin off . I stared at Metis helplessly . " Why are you trying to be a little Miss Firebrand ? " " Your cousin sounds like he's putting you down , and I hate it . So I'm gonna defend you ! " she said cheekily , winking . Kevin ground his teeth . " What was that supposed to mean , sweetheart ?

It's not easy to get promoted in my line of work , alright ? I'm already one of the best you'll ever meet ! " I know you think Sebastian looks better than me , but what's the point of being handsome ? He's unemployed ! " Don't make me expose your past to her , Sebastian ! Trust me , it would bring me no pleasure ! Since she isn't your girlfriend , I want you to send me her social media handles and phone number . I'm interested in her , and we should hang out ! " I shook my head . " The problem is ... I don't have them . " It was the truth .

Metis had changed her phone number and social media handles , and I hadn't managed to ask for the new ones yet . ADMINJ
