Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

2/2 Chapter 445 +25 Bonus " What kind of outfit is that ? " Metis still wore her heavy snow - mountain gear , the same thick coat and layers from the icy peak . Here in mild Astergrad , she sweated , her cheeks flushed , and her hair clung to her neck . " Don't worry about that , " Metis snapped , waving Sebastian off as she steadied her breath . " I saw the formulae you sent . You bought them from someone else , didn't you ? " Her voice shook from the exertion . " Yeah , " I said . " I could not reach you and the schedule was tight . The formulae came from a senior doctor .

They looked decent , so I went ahead . " At once Metis's face lost color . She grabbed my arm , her grip firm and trembling . " What ? You already bought them ? Have they gone on sale ? " " Not yet , but they're about to . I just gave the order to launch . They should be online any minute now , " I replied , frowning at her panic . " Stop it . Stop the launch right now ! " she shouted , her whole body shaking . " That formulae the senior doctor gave you are flawed . If they go on sale , people will die . " " Die ? " The word hit me like a thunderclap . My expression hardened .

Metis did not look like she was exaggerating . I snatched my phone and called the sales department . 11 " Hello , Mr. Grimwald ! The new products will go live in less than a minute , " the manager said , his voice bright . Offline stock has already been loaded and sent out . The online livestream is exploding . Over 100,000 viewers per session . Do you want to come see it ? We already have 170,000 preorders ... " My heart nearly stopped . Metis and I stared at each other , our faces the color of chalk .

If this batch proved poisonous , Sleeping Giant's popularity would make people rush to buy it . If it killed them , how many deaths would that be ? " Stop the livestream ! " I roared . " The medicine is contaminated . Recall every shipment now . Bring back every single untouched box . Freeze the stock and investigate everything . Not one pill leaves this company , understand ? " Cold sweat rolled down my back as I barked the orders . On the other end , the panicked manager stammered , " U - Understood , Mr. Grimwald . Right away ! " When I hung up , all my strength left me .

I sank into my chair and gasped . Thank goodness Metis had arrived when she did . Without her warning , Sleeping Giant would have been finished . I forced myself to breathe and leaned toward her . " Thank you . How did you know the formulae were flawed ? " Chooter 445 +25 Bonus I truly did not understand . " This batch was tested . Our lab results were clean , and volunteer trials showed no negative reactions during the observation period . " Metis exhaled at last . Relief softened her features as she peeled off her heavy outerwear . " I knew the moment I saw the formulae , " she said .

" Call those volunteers back . I will detox them myself . As for the public fallout , that is on you to handle . " She shed the thick winter coat and stood in a thin , skin - tight outfit . Sweat clung to her like a sheen . The damp fabric fit every curve . " They've been tampered with as well ? " My nerves tightened again . After the last incident , I did not want to hear that . " Yes , " she said gravely . " It is a slow - acting toxin . Your instruments cannot detect it . It will not show up on chemical scans . Remember , every medicine has its poison .

People will not feel anything right after taking it . How long was your observation period ? " P ADMINJ
