Raelynn instantly recognized Sebastian's hand. Next to it, an elegant woman's hand was almost pressed against his in a display of intense intimacy.
They looked like they had spent the entire night partying together.
Raelynn instinctively touched her cheek.
When Brenda had slapped her yesterday, Sebastian hadn't moved a muscle.
Yet Seraphina feeling a little under the weather had him tossing around a million bucks in a panic.
You couldn't measure the depth of a relationship by how much time people spent together.
She was living proof of that.
Chloe rolled her eyes, practically vibrating with rage. "So Sebastian actually knows how to treat a woman! Him and that girl are practically..."
Raelynn only looked at the screen for a second before going back to her soup, finishing Chloe's sentence. "Two cheating scumbags."
Raelynn sounded like an outside observer.
Though her choice of words was brutally blunt.
Chloe actually choked for a second, looking at Raelynn with delighted surprise. "Are you really serious about the divorce? Have you completely made up your mind?"
Because with Raelynn's usual grace, she would never speak like that unless she was done.
Raelynn was momentarily at a loss for words.
So even Chloe had doubted she would actually go through with it.
It just went to show how much she had compromised herself in her marriage to Sebastian.
"I swear, I'm serious." She held up three fingers in a mock pledge.
Chloe finally relaxed, pinching Raelynn's soft, porcelain cheek with a mix of joy and sympathy.
She and Raelynn had been friends for almost ten years.
Back when Raelynn was about to become the glamorous Mrs. Croix, Chloe had been genuinely thrilled for her.
If there was one wealthy heir in the country who generated the most buzz, it was absolutely Sebastian Croix.
The designated successor of the Croix family, he took over key sectors of their empire and rapidly expanded into healthcare, real estate, AI, and energy—dominating everywhere he went without a single failure.
Any project he invested in instantly topped the charts.
He was brilliantly capable, leaving his peers in the dust.
And his looks were on par with movie stars; he was undeniably handsome with a commanding presence. Despite his ice-cold personality, he had an almost demonic allure, drawing everyone's attention the second he walked into a room.
Preston was now the CEO of a digital healthcare company called NexusMind Technologies. Seven years ago, the company blew up overnight thanks to a digital medical software called 'Digi-Medica,' taking a completely unknown startup all the way to an IPO.
And 'Digi-Medica' was Raelynn's creation.
The software was widely used in clinical treatments and contained a massive database of authoritative, master-level remedies from both ancient and modern times.
Patients could use it for smart symptom analysis, and doctors could use it to prescribe medication with pinpoint accuracy.
It gave ordinary people access to top-tier medical solutions.
It had a massive user base and remained incredibly popular to this day.
It had become a lifesaving tool for countless families.
It even sparked a massive revival of traditional remedies.
The only problem was that before 'Digi-Medica' even officially launched, Raelynn got married. Chairman Croix Sr. strictly forbade her from working in the public eye, so she had no choice but to put her dreams on hold.
And now...
Men were just ticking time bombs in a marriage, and absolute poison for your bank account.
In short, they ruined your finances and your life!

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!...
