Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen 73 Summary Howard confronts Ezra with intense anger, accusing him of being a thug who preys on women and declaring that his actions are in defense of Ezra's sister, whose life was saved by Sebastian Grimwald. Ezra feels deeply betrayed by Howard, his own brother-in-law, who has chosen to side with Sebastian instead of him. Fueled by rage, Ezra threatens to call his sister Miley to expose the situation and damage Howard's marriage.

Howard challenges Ezra to make the call, mocking him and revealing Sebastian's identity as the firefighter who saved Miley two years ago. Despite his disbelief, Ezra dials Miley, convinced she will support him because firefighters are just doing their job. Ezra's harsh and dismissive words about Sebastian's life shock everyone, but the narrator remains composed, viewing Ezra's outburst as that of a spoiled man-child. As Howard's anger boils over, he unleashes a violent attack on Ezra, who screams in pain and fear during the call with Miley.

Hearing her brother's distress, Miley becomes frantic and rushes to the scene, demanding Howard stop. Howard, exhausted but defiant, prepares to continue the fight, while Ezra smugly predicts Miley will divorce Howard, though he doubts she would ever harm him. Howard ignores Ezra's taunts and instead invites Sebastian and the narrator to sit down, showing respect and admiration. The narrator, seeing Ezra's battered face, tries to de-escalate the situation, but Ezra remains hostile, determined to let Miley witness the chaos and face the consequences.

The chapter ends with tension high and the conflict unresolved. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Howard struck with relentless force. "This is for being a vile thug who preys on women! And I'm doing this in the name of your sister-the very woman whose life was saved by the man you're trying to terrorize!" Blood trickled from Ezra's split lips. He couldn't have missed the sharp sting of betrayal: his own brother-in-law had chosen to side with an outsider rather than stand by him. "You're unbelievable!" Ezra bellowed, fury crackling in his voice. "I'm calling Miley!

You can kiss your marriage goodbye!" Howard sneered, a harsh laugh escaping him as he delivered another sharp slap to Ezra's cheek. "Oh, really? You honestly think that's going to happen?" Without hesitation, Howard tossed his phone toward Ezra. "Go ahead. Call her. Tell her the guy you've been harassing is Sebastian Grimwald-the firefighter who saved your sister two years ago.

I'm looking forward to seeing your sister beat you so badly you won't even recognize yourself in the mirror." Ezra's disbelief was clear, but he dialed the number anyway, shooting me a venomous glare as the call connected. "My sister will stand by me! I *know* she will! Every firefighter's job is to rescue people from fire-that's what our taxes pay for!" He spat out the words bitterly, "What the hell? Who cares about some guy who could have died any day, like expendable fodder?" The room fell silent, shocked by his callousness. I was likely the only one who remained composed.

To everyone else, Ezra's words sounded cruel and heartless. To me, they were just the tantrum of a spoiled man-child throwing a fit when things didn't go his way. No one was angrier than Howard. His body trembled with barely contained rage before he unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks on Ezra. "You disgusting piece of trash! I'm going to teach you a lesson your parents should have taught you years ago!" At that moment, the call connected on the other end, and Ezra's agonized screams pierced through to Miley Wynn. "Oh my God, Ezra?! What's happening?

Talk to me!" Miley's voice was frantic, filled with panic. Hearing his sister's concern seemed to shake Ezra slightly, and he shrieked even louder, "Miley! The karaoke bar! Howard's going to kill me! He's defending someone else, and he says you'd approve!" "What?! What is he talking about?!" Miley's heart pounded in her chest. "Howard! Howard, I'm coming over! I'm close by! Stop hitting my brother!" Howard grunted, catching his breath. "Good. My hands are sore. Your turn now, sweetie." Ezra ended the call, a smug smirk playing across his bruised face. "I'll make her divorce you, Howard.

Remember, our family owns half this place." He sneered, "The funniest part is you actually believing Miley would lay a hand on me. She's never even raised her voice against me, let alone hurt me." Howard paid Ezra's words no mind-he ignored him as he rightly deserved. Instead, he carefully arranged two chairs for Claire and me. "Please, Mr. Grimwald, have a seat. My wife is a huge fan of yours. It's not often she gets to meet her hero in person." I glanced at Ezra's battered, swollen face and realized my anger had softened enough. "I'm fine. I don't think this needs to escalate any further.

I have an early morning tomorrow-" "No, you're not going anywhere!" Ezra growled fiercely. "I'm going to let Miley see all of this, and then you'll face her wrath." Conclusion The chapter closes on a tense and fraught moment, where the raw emotions of betrayal, anger, and loyalty collide in a volatile confrontation.
