Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen 44 Summary Rhea, who had initially seemed exhausted and in pain, suddenly became affectionate and insistent, pressing herself against Sebastian and expressing a deep emotional need. She confessed that despite having met many men who were interested in her wealth or lusted after her, Sebastian was different-he was kind and genuine. Rhea revealed her belief that good men still existed because of him, and she wanted to hold onto that feeling, even if they could never be together as a couple.

She explained that she was resigned to marrying a man she did not love-Baron Goldwater, a cruel and unpleasant CEO chosen by her parents-but she did not want to give her first time to someone like Baron. Instead, she wished to share it with Sebastian, tying it to a cherished memory rather than a loveless future. Rhea promised that after this, she would not bother him again, showing a mix of vulnerability and determination. Sebastian was conflicted and tried to resist her advances, reminding her that he was still married and concerned about the consequences.

Rhea countered by revealing she knew about his impending divorce and pleaded with him not to reject her. She emphasized that her decision was not impulsive or drunken but a considered choice born from desperation and gratitude for his kindness. Rhea tearfully described how her parents had informed her of her engagement to Baron, a man she despised for his misogyny and unpleasant character. She felt trapped in a humiliating fate but found solace in Sebastian's kindness, which had saved her life twice.

Her plea was heartfelt: she wanted to reclaim some dignity through this one act with Sebastian, hoping he would understand and grant her this final request.
