Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 1
For the first seven years of her marriage, Raelynn Ortiz harbored a massive secret: she had a daughter.
The little girl was five years old now, and her husband had absolutely no idea.
She had never given Sebastian Croix the chance to play daddy.
On her break during the night shift, Raelynn listened to a voice note from her daughter, who was currently being raised out of state. Her sweet, innocent voice drifted through the phone:
"Mommy~ Why haven't I ever met Daddy? Is he dead?"
Raelynn actually gave it some serious thought.
Not dead. But close enough.
Little Lily Hudson was starting to develop her own thoughts, and a new dilemma was brewing in her tiny head.
For instance, the kid had never met her biological father.
Her curiosity was sprouting day by day.
So much so that Raelynn was deeply considering whether she should just come clean to Sebastian. Tell him they actually had a five-year-old together, and he could skip the grueling newborn phase and effortlessly become a father.
Closing the chat window with little Lily, Raelynn did some mental math.
She and Sebastian only had three months left...
Carefully choosing her words, she typed a line in her text thread with Sebastian—a chat history that was already pitifully sparse:
[If we had a baby, would you...]
Before she could hit send, the door was shoved open.
A young nurse rushed in, looking frantic. "Dr. Ortiz! We've got an emergency. Suspected ruptured cyst—looks like they were way too rough in the bedroom during her first trimester"
Raelynn immediately locked her screen.
She shot up and followed the nurse out, her brow furrowed. "Are they out of their minds? You can't be that rough during the first trimester. Could they really not keep their hands off each other for five minutes?"
But as the nurse pulled back the hospital curtain, the reprimand died in Raelynn's throat. She stared at the familiar woman on the bed.
After a two-second pause, she called out the name in disbelief. "Seraphina Vance?"
Raelynn didn't waste her breath. As a doctor, she couldn't delay a patient's care. She leaned over to lift the hem of Seraphina's shirt.
With a cold sneer, Seraphina swatted her hand away.
It was a sharp, heavy blow.
It stung.
Raelynn looked down; the back of her hand was already bright red.
Before she could even react, Seraphina suddenly softened her voice and called out to someone behind Raelynn. "Sebastian..."
At the sound of that familiar name, Raelynn forgot about the stinging in her hand and turned her head.
The man's strides were sharp and purposeful. His tailored overcoat was draped effortlessly over his arm, his tall, imposing figure exuding an untouchable elegance that commanded the room. As he approached, his gaze flicked sideways, locking with Raelynn's.
But only for a fraction of a second. Without breaking his stride, he coldly looked away.
He walked right past Raelynn as if she were a total stranger and stopped on the other side of the hospital bed.

I think for as slow as the beginning was, their turning point is just so fast... really hope we actually get to read about R and S and their rekindle.... we did not read 950 pages for their story to be sidelined. Im for this sideline story, but it if it's to separate from the main characters and their story, please make it separate book....
Author please update more chapters...
I really like Zella, she is becoming a good friend to Raelynn. Ian needs to go. The relationship with Chloe is confusing. Some chapters they are cousins, sometimes they're sibling. A little confusing....
Julians role as big brother- I feel comes from a genuine place, but in a relationship thats is just as stained as Raelynns and Sebastians. It hard for me to connect to his big brother role as he too was such a problem before. And while they talked a little bit, the conversation did not give me the believe there was resolution between Raelynn and Julian. For a brute, he should make his feelings clear about the situation to Raelynn and then step back, until there is more foundation for him to stand on....
Knife in my heart. I hurt for Raelynn. She has made it this far, but how much does she have in her, everyone has a breaking point. Some back of me hopes the author is joking to lighten the mood after so many intense chapters, but thats not this kind of story or couple....
My heart cannot take this. This, cannot be how it ends with these too. They need resolution with each other. Raelynn needs to be more humanize with Sebastian. We know she is hurt, but this is the branch. She needs all these answers, if not for them to be together, then for Lily to have both her parents. Stop with the mind games Raelynn!...
Its like the story is just repeating itself...
Timeline is getting lost for me. So many treasured little memories Raelynn has but yet, he was gone for years ? Anyways... still rooting for them! These two need a heart to heart. Lily "forgetting" someone, not possible in this day and age and I hope thats not their storyline....
Sebastian, the man of few words.... needs to find all the words! Needs to fight for her! On note, seven years seems like a long time for this master plan (which I am sure goes back much farther). Rereading this novel, and it seems like everything has played out in a 5-8 month time span. And I feel like all Sebastian's doings/ plan have not been revealed. I hope we get to see the whole picture and have the resolutions we hope. But seven years of mistreatment, I just don't see Raelynn fully coming back. If these was 2-3 years, maybe, and I know it changes some characters around, but it would still work. Rooting for them!...
Literally on edge!...
