Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 348

Raelynn calmly looked over toward where Adrian was seated.

This charity event was aimed at high-society figures, ensuring the philanthropic efforts translated into actual funding.

As she made her way over, Raelynn greeted several familiar faces.

Knowing she might run into them in the business world later, she didn't rush straight to her senior.

She took her time mingling.

Eventually, Raelynn strolled over and spotted the three people sitting under a large patio umbrella.

Adrian wore his usual approachable smile, unchanging as always.

He looked at Sebastian and chuckled lightly. "Ms. Vance is quite lucky, having someone like you pull strings just to get a meeting with me."

Given his current reputation and status, ordinary people had to book appointments months in advance.

He wasn't someone you could just walk up and see.

But Sebastian always had the right connections.

Sebastian seemingly ignored the underlying sarcasm in Adrian's voice, replying smoothly, "Thank you for the opportunity, Director Moreno."

He wasn't arrogant toward his elders, simply offering a calm, faint smile.

Adrian frowned slightly, hiding his annoyance.

Seraphina, however, cherished this rare chance.

She was terrified that the patent scandal would ruin Adrian's opinion of her and cost her a spot in his program.

She desperately needed a highly respected industry leader to help solidify her standing.

"Director Moreno, I had no idea Faye was your junior, but there truly is a misunderstanding here. I came today hoping we could clear the air face-to-face, rather than letting false rumors dictate the narrative."

Who could have guessed Faye was Professor Finch's student?

No wonder Alistair Finch had been so dismissive of her back then.

Acting as if he knew absolutely nothing about their impending divorce, Adrian glanced at Seraphina. "Ms. Vance, why don't you make some room? Switch seats so Raelynn can sit next to Mr. Croix. They are legally married, after all."

Seraphina's breath hitched, her limbs going rigid. The scene between Sebastian and Raelynn that day had been a massive spectacle. There was no way to hide it from Adrian.

But she couldn't afford to leave a bad impression in front of him.

No matter how much she hated letting Raelynn win, she was forced to stand up.

Raelynn watched Seraphina vacate the seat next to Sebastian.

She didn't take it. Instead, she pulled out a different chair and sat down.

It wasn't too close to him.

Sebastian paused, giving her a slow, unreadable look.

Seraphina knew Raelynn was deliberately acting aloof to maintain her pride, which only infuriated her more, but there was nothing she could do.

She hadn't expected Raelynn to be here today. She figured Raelynn had used Preston Moreno to track Adrian's schedule just to suck up to him and ruin her plans!
