Goodbye Saintess (by Edelweiss W.S.) novel Chapter 134

**The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen**

**Chapter 131**

A wave of realization crashed over me, leaving me momentarily disoriented. The pieces of this puzzling narrative finally clicked into place, revealing why I had been blissfully unaware of the Astregrad Four. They were so enshrined in secrecy, so exclusive, that their existence had been veiled from the likes of me—until this very moment.

Terry Amos had set his sights on one of our own, and in my impulsive reaction, I had bloodied his nose. The implications of this confrontation were staggering.

With the vast resources at the disposal of a family like the Amoses, it wouldn’t take long for them to uncover our company’s operations. The thought sent a shiver down my spine. We could be crushed under their financial might before we even had the chance to make our first significant moves in this precarious game.

And when that inevitable moment arrived, Jeanine and I would find ourselves ensnared in an even more perilous situation.

I took a deep breath, the air sharp in my lungs. “We’ll face that challenge when it arises. While we may wish to steer clear of conflict, that doesn’t mean we’ll allow ourselves to be tyrannized. I don’t care if he’s the heir to some illustrious dynasty. If the Devil himself dares to harass one of my people, I’ll gladly give him a taste of his own medicine!”

I had drawn my line in the sand. Today was the day I would put an end to this feud with Terry. If we allowed this animosity to fester and chase us like a shadow, they would only grow bolder, relentlessly pursuing us until we were utterly vanquished. Retreat was not an option. We had to confront this head-on.

Even if the Amos family managed to obliterate my company today, they would never extinguish my spirit. I would rise again, within five years or less, and I would crush them beneath my heel for the trouble they had caused.

Sebastian was blissfully unaware of the admiration radiating from his employees as they observed him. They were moved by his unwavering decision. None of them had ever worked for someone who genuinely cared about their welfare and would stand up for them simply because they were part of his team. Others had only been preoccupied with profits and personal ambitions. Even Baron Inc. would likely bend to Terry’s will to safeguard the company’s interests.

I took her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. “Don’t say that. You’re one of my team. I’m your boss. Of course, I have to defend you. You can’t face that piece of trash alone! Don’t be afraid. Your boss is right here!”

“Exactly! We are all here for you! Who’s scared of that asshole?!” one of the men chimed in, his voice rising with fervor.

“We’ve got the numbers on our side! Maybe they’ll be the ones crawling out of here when this is over!” another added, his enthusiasm infectious.

“You heard the boss, boys! Me, personally? I’ve been hating on the 1% and the ultra-rich for a long time!” a third man declared, his voice booming with defiance.

Fueled by liquor and my unwavering stance, the men sprang to their feet, their faces flushed with adrenaline. They raised their bottles high, brandishing them like swords, ready to face whatever storm lay ahead.
