Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 342

By the time the call ended.

Raelynn flexed her fingers, watching the pale skin of her knuckles slowly flush back with color.

The icy chill in her veins finally thawed.

It felt as though she no longer had to constantly look over her shoulder.

Right before leaving the country, Ian had given her exactly the reassurance she needed.

She was incredibly grateful to him.

By helping her now, he was actively standing against Sebastian.

This was a massive favor, and Raelynn wouldn't take it lightly.

She headed back to NexusMind Technologies.

Carrying the contracts and transfer documents, Raelynn found Preston Moreno already waiting with his legal team.

The team took turns, going through the paperwork word by painstaking word.

They were being excessively cautious.

"Croix Holdings' legal team is famously ruthless," Preston warned. "Any documents passing through their hands need to be treated like a landmine."

He was worried Sebastian had set a trap for her.

In this industry, legal loopholes were everywhere.

A single word or even a misplaced punctuation mark could spell disaster.

Sebastian had always been so cold to Raelynn; there was no telling how far his ruthlessness would go. Longstride Technologies would inevitably double in value under Raelynn's management, and Preston needed to ensure the Croix family wouldn't have a backdoor to interfere.

Raelynn smiled. "Alright, you're even sharper than I am."

Preston shrugged. "I have to be. Snatching a prize this lucrative from the jaws of the Croix family is basically a miracle. We can't afford a single mistake. We have to lock this down tight."

The Croix family was a pack of wolves that devoured people whole.

Raelynn walking away with a goldmine like this was unprecedented.

Once word got out, people would assume she had some incredible backing or a deeply calculated master plan to pull this off.

Raelynn agreed with his logic, though she had assumed one lawyer would be enough. Preston had brought three.

The trio huddled together, discussing every clause in agonizing detail.

Amid the flood of messages, Raelynn spotted one from Luke Sterling.

Mr. Sterling: ?

Just a single question mark.

Raelynn could practically see his shattered dignity through the screen.

There was also a missed call from him.

She ignored both completely.

He had made a fool of himself of his own accord; there was no reason for her to offer him an easy way out now.

A few unknown numbers tried calling as well.

She didn't answer.

Then the texts flooded in.

[Raelynn, she's your sister. Don't make things difficult for your own family. Go smooth things over. When your sister succeeds, don't you get to bask in her glory too? Stop throwing a tantrum.]

[Look at what you've done! Do you have any idea how much humiliation and grief your sister has suffered these past two days? People are actually mistaking her for the other woman! You need to clear this up immediately!]
