Luke was even more amazed by Seraphina's grace.
This was the confidence of a true partner, something those using underhanded tricks to climb the social ladder could never compare to.
Looking back toward Raelynn with a darkened gaze, an indescribable sense of irritation washed over him.
"Aren't you going to go over and confront her?"
Seraphina's eyes flickered, but she calmly replied, "We're both women, there's no need to make things difficult for each other. Sebastian has me in his heart; naturally, he won't give anyone else an opening."
At that moment.
Luke looked at Seraphina with a newfound sense of admiration.
She truly was the woman Sebastian had chosen.
She was exceptional.
"Mr. Sterling, let's just pretend we didn't see anything. Let's leave her some dignity." Seraphina offered a sweet smile and turned away with elegant grace.
Luke watched her retreating figure.
She was generous, gentle, confident, and refused to be petty.
To think he had previously believed Raelynn was the superior one. He had clearly been blind.
After separating from Sebastian, Raelynn met up with Preston Moreno.
Preston leaned in and whispered, "Looks like your love life is looking up. You should just go date someone. Your soon-to-be ex-husband can't be the only one allowed to have some fun."
Raelynn took a sip of her juice. "Excuse me?"
Preston pointed at Luke, who was chatting with someone nearby.
"Mr. Sterling seems interested in you. Check your phone, he asked me for your number."
"Oh, well, he's got good taste." Raelynn chewed on the fruit pulp, not particularly surprised.
She had plenty of suitors back in school.
Unfortunately, she had been secretly in love with Sebastian back then, and her heart had stubbornly latched onto him.
From her teens to twenty-six, so many years had flashed by.
She hadn't taken any detours in her youth, walking a perfectly straight line right into her own karma.
Preston chuckled at Raelynn's arrogance.
Her personality was actually quite vibrant. Had it not been for the grinding toll of her marriage over the years, she would have always been this radiant.
Raelynn wasn't in a hurry to check her phone.
She had come here for two reasons: to network, and to see if she could find any trace of her family's heirloom in the antique shops.
Luke looked at her eager, burning gaze and instinctively froze.
The intensity of her look caught him off guard.
But the image of Raelynn throwing herself at Sebastian instantly flashed through his mind.
It forcefully pushed down the strange flutter in his chest. He couldn't help but give a cynical smirk. "Am I your backup plan?"
That was the only possibility he could think of.
She failed to seduce Sebastian.
So she acted like nothing happened and came happily running to him?
Did she think the whole world was her safety net?
Raelynn was immediately confused. "What?"
She didn't understand what he meant.
Just as she was about to ask if the Rosewood Padlock Charm was for sale.
Seraphina's laughing voice sounded from behind her. "Sebastian, this padlock charm is so unique and delicate, and the meaning behind it is wonderful. I love it. I wonder if it's for sale."
The warmth in Raelynn's eyes was instantly extinguished, as if doused by ice water.

The readers' comments on the novel: Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding
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!...
