Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 251
Leo Flynn couldn't hide his astonishment. "Has Mr. Moreno lost his mind? With such a massive team and so many senior developers, he gave the lead credit to Raelynn Ortiz? Does she really have that much charm?"
Julian cast him a sidelong glance. "Why can't it just be that Raelynn actually has the skills?"
Seraphina Vance stared at Raelynn's name on the massive screen, her complexion paling. A flicker of deep resentment crossed her eyes. "Impossible."
She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself. "Don't forget what happened recently. NexusMind Technologies nearly kicked Raelynn out of the clinical trials. Add to that the massive funding Sebastian poured into NexusMind. As the key figure, Raelynn brought in that investment, which was more than enough to make NexusMind treat her exceptionally well. It's nothing but a bought honor. It doesn't count."
Back during the hospital incident involving Shane, Raelynn had nearly been fired by NexusMind. Seraphina figured Raelynn must have strategized with Preston Moreno to extort that enormous funding from Sebastian Croix, thereby earning Preston's favor.
Leo agreed that this was the most plausible explanation. He shook his head. "How far can she really go with that? She scrounged up some glory this time, but can she do it again?"
Seraphina scoffed silently. What Raelynn did this time was no different from outright theft. She had stolen the hard work of everyone at NexusMind Technologies and Kingsford University. She would inevitably face severe backlash in the future. Her smugness wouldn't last.
"Sebastian?"
Even though she rationalized it, a jealous fire still burned in her chest. Unwilling to accept defeat, she turned to Sebastian with a pitiful expression.
Sebastian stood up slowly, ignoring her completely as he looked toward a deeply thoughtful Julian. "Your grandmother seems quite interested in Raelynn."
At the mention of Raelynn, Seraphina pressed her lips into a thin line, her mood souring further.
Julian frowned. Was that true? His grandmother had never been so warm and approachable with anyone.

Outside the venue, Raelynn could easily guess the drama unfolding inside. As she exited, she spotted Dr. Evelyn Hayes about to get into a car.
Preston was utterly speechless.
They were used to bantering like this, but today's success definitely called for a celebration. The new drug's development was officially complete. Next up, the company's other departments would handle the integration.
"Everyone has worked so hard for so long," Preston suggested. "Let's organize a celebration dinner. We can all go out and unwind. I'll set up the itinerary."
Raelynn didn't object. They had spent countless nights burning the midnight oil in the lab, and exhaustion had settled deep into their bones. The subsequent phases—getting the drug covered by insurance and launching it into the market—would take time, but they had finally conquered the hardest part.
Just as they were about to get into the car, Raelynn's phone rang.
Without checking the caller ID, she answered. "Hello."
There was a brief silence on the line before a deeply textured, cold male voice spoke. "Raelynn, it's Ian Hudson. I'm back in the country. Are you free to meet?"

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!...
