Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 271

At that exact moment, the heavy weight lifted off Raelynn Ortiz. Sebastian Croix was already on his feet. Though the drug still coursed through his system, making his steps unsteady, he walked away without a single backward glance.

It happened incredibly fast.

It was as if everything had just been a figment of Raelynn's imagination.

Her heart was still pounding.

The air still carried the seductive scent of rose aromatherapy candles, mingling with the lingering notes of Sebastian's cedarwood and oud cologne.

His instinct to protect Seraphina Vance had reached such a terrifying extreme.

Even with his mind clouded, his body swaying, and desire burning through his veins, he could force himself to snap back to reality and walk away.

Raelynn wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, a mocking smile curving her lips.

She could not stay in this room a second longer.

Ignoring the torrential rain outside, Raelynn straightened her clothes, grabbed her bag, and walked out the door.

The roads were treacherous in the storm.

It took her over two hours to drive back to their marital home.

She had nowhere else to go.

She only returned here because she knew Sebastian would not be coming back.

He had his hands full now.

Cameron Croix had been granted leave from prison.

He undoubtedly knew about Seraphina's betrayal, and the fallout was going to be massive.

Things were about to get chaotic.

Yet Sebastian had fought through the haze of a heavy drug just to rush to Seraphina's side and protect her.

What profound devotion.

Raelynn had finally witnessed just how reckless Sebastian could be when he truly loved someone.

As for that spiked bottle of wine...

She could guess the outcome. Since it happened at Mr. Flynn Sr.'s birthday banquet, they would likely sweep it under the rug to avoid a scandal.

Raelynn hadn't been back long when Matilda Croix called.
