Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 313

Luke felt a subtle, distinctly male hostility radiating from Ian.

He narrowed his eyes. "What's that supposed to mean, Mr. Hudson?"

Ian enunciated every word clearly. "Ms. Ortiz does not appreciate your unsolicited advances. Please respect her boundaries."

Luke's jaw tightened. "Are you just playing the hero, Mr. Hudson, or is there something else going on?"

Ian met his gaze head-on. "I have feelings for Raelynn."

A simple, blunt declaration.

It ruthlessly sliced through the ridiculous tension, dropping a massive bombshell on the room.

The bewildered crowd stared at Ian in absolute shock.

The future head of The Hudson Family, the legendary CEO, actually had feelings for a woman embroiled in so much controversy?

The cocky smile on Luke's face instantly shattered.

Even Raelynn was stunned.

Sebastian's cold eyes slowly narrowed, a faint, almost imperceptible scoff pulling at his lips.

But his gaze was fixed on the most important person in the room: Dr. Hayes.

It took a long moment for the reality of the situation to hit the crowd, prompting everyone to nervously check the matriarch's reaction.

After all, plenty of people knew that Ian was engaged to The Yves Family...

To declare his feelings for someone else right in front of Dr. Hayes was akin to ripping up the harmonious facade between the two powerful families. He was laying all his cards on the table.

Dr. Hayes's expression was unsurprisingly grim.

She hadn't anticipated things spiraling like this.

Julian flared with sudden anger. He had only intended to force Ian to back off from Raelynn. He never expected Ian to double down and publicly confess his feelings in front of him, his grandmother, and the entire elite circle.

The situation had escalated past the point of no return!

"Mr. Stevens, please escort our guests to the front hall for refreshments," Dr. Hayes ordered, her voice sharp as glass.

Raelynn's scalp prickled.

She was clearing out the irrelevant spectators so the core group could handle this face-to-face.

In the end, she had been dragged right into the center of the mess.
