Goodbye Saintess (by Edelweiss W.S.) novel Chapter 215

TITLE: The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen 215

“Blanc Inc. is a giant in our industry, and our family simply can’t compete with them. If Sebastian unleashes his anger, it could spell disaster for the entire McKay legacy!”

The weight of those words settled heavily in the room, creating a palpable tension that silenced everyone for a brief moment.

Yet, even amidst the stillness, seeds of doubt began to sprout. How could someone as youthful as Sebastian wield such formidable power? And how was it possible that Claire, a person they had always regarded as insignificant, was connected to someone of such immense influence?

From the shadows of the gathering, Sandy’s voice broke through the silence, laced with an unexpected excitement. “No, that’s not accurate. I did some digging. Sebastian isn’t nearly as powerful as you think.”

A collective gaze snapped towards her, curiosity piqued.

Cecil, struggling to contain his mounting frustration, leaned in closer, his eyes narrowing. “Then enlighten us. What have you found?”

Sandy nodded, her expression earnest as she began to explain. “Sebastian does indeed own a company called Sleeping Giant, but it’s just starting out. It lacks any substantial strength at this point. In fact, over the past few days, he’s only managed a handful of projects. The overall volume of his business doesn’t even come close to matching that of the McKay Group.”

“I knew it!” Cecil breathed out, a wave of relief washing over him. “He’s just a kid… There’s no way he could possess that level of capability.”

However, the relief was fleeting. A frown creased Cecil’s brow as a new wave of tension surged through him. “But if that’s true, then why was Lawrence so terrified of him? What could possibly drive him to the brink of beating his own son just to safeguard their collaboration?”

The pieces didn’t fit together. A fledgling company with no solid foundation shouldn’t be able to intimidate the CEO of Blanc Inc., let alone provoke such extreme reactions.

Sandy’s expression shifted as she delved deeper into her research, her brow furrowing in concentration. Moments later, her eyes widened in a flash of realization. “I see it now! The employees at Sleeping Giant all came from Baron Inc. Those projects they’re working on likely originated from there.”

“Sleeping Giant might just be a front. Blanc Inc. isn’t interested in the company itself—they want access to the former Baron Inc. employees. Through them, they’re constructing a bridge back to Baron Inc.”

Her revelations spilled forth eagerly, and the family listened intently as recognition dawned on their faces, quickly morphing into anger.

“So that’s it—a coward hiding behind borrowed prestige!”

“He almost managed to deceive us today. Thank goodness Sandy uncovered this online!”
