Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 246

The venue was packed, but Dr. Hayes instantly zeroed in on exactly who Julian was staring at.

Just then, Raelynn turned her head, scanning the crowd.

Dr. Hayes let out a noise of surprise.

"Now that is a stunningly gorgeous young woman. What's this? You've got your eye on her?"

She asked, narrowing her eyes at her grandson.

Julian coughed awkwardly. He noticed Sebastian looking his way, his dark eyes locking onto them.

Frowning, Julian addressed his grandmother with utter seriousness. "Grandma, don't talk nonsense. She's just a friend."

Dr. Hayes felt a pang of disappointment.

She was a woman who trusted her gut, and something about this girl immediately resonated with her.

"Then your standards are absurdly high. You deserve to be single forever," Dr. Hayes scoffed.

Ignoring Julian completely, she marched purposefully toward Raelynn.

Terrified that his fierce grandmother was about to cause a scene, Julian scrambled after her.

The pharmaceutical executives and investors had been mingling.

But the moment someone spotted Dr. Hayes.

Nearly everyone who had been seated shot to their feet in a massive show of respect.

The absolute reverence was undeniable.

Raelynn turned her head.

The approaching older woman was dressed in a stylish, vibrant jacket. Her gaze was razor-sharp, and even though she wore a slight smile, she commanded an overwhelming presence.

Having seen Dr. Hayes in countless news features, research journals, and university interviews, Raelynn stood up immediately.

Seraphina's face lit up with blatant thrill.

She wasn't just here to watch NexusMind get their approval; she had known Dr. Hayes would be chairing the event.

Building a connection with a titan of Professor Alistair Finch's caliber could only fast-track her own ambitions.

Sebastian, who was already acquainted with Dr. Hayes, stood up and gave a respectful nod. "It's been a while, Grandma Hayes."

Dr. Hayes looked at him. She actively encouraged Julian's friendship with Sebastian. As the apex predator of his generation—someone who effortlessly outmaneuvered seasoned corporate sharks—Sebastian had earned her deep admiration.
