Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 361 " Yes , sir ! " Jeanine chirped . I gathered my documents and headed to the nearest branch of AsterBank . National and international banks came with endless terms and conditions , and securing a large loan from them was often impossible . On the other hand , local banks tended to be less strict . After completing the paperwork , I sat down to wait for my request to be processed . " Sebastian Grimwald ? " I turned to find Rhea's father , James Canien , seated behind me . " Yes . It's me . Got a problem ? " He leered and gave a short , mocking snort .

" Your company's going under already ? Is that why you need a loan ? To save it ? " " Between you and me , I doubt anyone would suspect me of that , " I replied with a smile . James's expression darkened . " What's that supposed to mean ? " " Well , my secretary told me your rival became our partner instead of you . Their stock has been skyrocketing , and now you're floundering like a fish out of water . " I smirked . " Sounds like projection to me . " James ' eyes widened in fury . " Why , you ! " He'd been drowning in regret ever since he blew his partnership with Sleeping Giant .

He could have made a fortune from that deal . He had even considered approaching Sebastian to discuss a new partnership , but his pride wouldn't allow it . Then , just a few days ago , he heard a rumor . " Don't get cocky , brat ! " James snarled . " We might be hitting turbulence now , but we'll bounce back soon . It's your company that's circling the drain ! If I'm not mistaken , this loan is part of your new pharma venture , isn't it ? And where exactly do you think you'll find a single factory willing to work with you ? " I frowned slightly . Something felt off .

" The biggest pharmaceutical company in this area belongs to the Çanien Group , " James said with a smug grin . " And someone you shouldn't have pissed off has already given orders . No one's allowed to partner with Sleeping Giant . I don't even know why you're bothering with a loan . You're so naïve it's almost pathetic . You have no idea how powerful that family is . You're finished , Sebastian ! " I didn't even know why he kept dancing around names . I already knew he meant the Amos family . " Why would I care about an enemy stooping to gutter tactics ? " I said coldly .

" The Amos family is nothing but filth . One day , I'll crush them under my boot . " James snickered derisively . " You really think you're the main character , don't you ? You keep bragging even with one foot in the grave , I'm done wasting my breath on a dying man ! " He spat on the floor , then stood up quickly , as if afraid I'd hit him again . He was about to walk away when I stopped him . Chapter 301 +25 Bonus I had no interest in trading words with a rabid dog . But there was one person connected to him I still cared about . How's Rhea ? " I asked . Comments ADMINJ
