With the massive time zone difference, Raelynn didn't get an immediate reply from Ian.
She could only wait patiently.
When the kindergarten activities finally ended, Raelynn didn't leave right away.
She watched as a group of wealthy socialites chatted and laughed with Seraphina, walking together like close friends.
Sebastian walked to the car and gentlemanly opened the door for Seraphina.
Considerate and gentle.
Eliciting another round of envious sighs from the socialites.
Soaking in their jealous gazes, Seraphina couldn't help but chuckle. She cast a deeply affectionate look at Sebastian before waving goodbye to everyone and slipping into the car.
Raelynn watched this sickeningly sweet display like a complete outsider.
Her heart hadn't felt a single ripple of emotion for a long time.
She simply needed to ensure Sebastian left the kindergarten grounds first. Otherwise, she wouldn't feel safe leaving with Lily.
Watching his car disappear into the distance.
Raelynn finally got into her Range Rover.
She had thought Ian wouldn't reply at all.
Ian: "Have you decided to get divorced?"
He replied with a question of his own.
Raelynn had never told Ian that her husband was Sebastian Croix. Given Sebastian's immense status, it was better to keep things quiet.
Chloe certainly wouldn't have told him either.
As for whether Ian would look into it, she doubted it. He wasn't emotionally invested in her, so he wouldn't care enough about her private life to dig into it.
She typed back: "I'm finalizing the divorce papers soon."
This time, Ian replied quickly: "Okay. I'll be back by next week at the latest."
Then, he added another message.
Ian: "Congratulations."
Raelynn stared at the word "Congratulations."
A bittersweet sensation washed over her, the feeling of finally seeing the light at the end of a long, dark tunnel.
Tomorrow, everything would finally be over.
For once, she felt a rare sense of relief and anticipation.
After replying with a "thank you," Raelynn headed back to NexusMind Technologies.
The clinical trials were in their final stages.
The product would soon be approved for the market. She could formulate countless types of drugs like this, but her current focus was entirely on The Neurosurgical Robot, which had just secured its necessary funding.
After putting in some overtime.
Raelynn returned to her apartment.
She had to prepare all the divorce agreements and documentation required to finalize the process.
Raelynn frowned in confusion, thinking she had misheard.
She checked the digits again. They were correct.
Even if Sebastian had blocked her, he could only block her old number. He had no way of knowing her new one. There was only one explanation...
He had changed his number too.
Raelynn stared at her phone for a long moment, letting out a laugh of pure disbelief.
Sebastian likely had the exact same thought as her.
Did he want to completely sever ties with the past and cut her out of his life forever?
Raelynn pursed her lips.
A dull ache throbbed in her temples.
Today was the crucial day for finalizing their divorce. Not being able to reach him naturally infuriated her.
Forcing herself to stay calm, Raelynn called Quinn's cell phone instead.
As Sebastian's personal assistant.
He was always highly efficient.
But...Quinn didn't answer.
Raelynn wanted to curse.
She had been in such a good mood today, but being unable to contact anyone on such a massive day was making her furious.

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!...
