Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 349
The atmosphere instantly turned bizarre.
Raelynn acted as if she were completely invisible.
Sebastian seemed completely detached from the situation.
Adrian broke the silence. "You came here today because you're worried I'll hold a bias against you and reject your PhD application, right?"
Seraphina felt a knot in her stomach but replied earnestly, "Many things have been misunderstood. I just hope you won't misjudge me."
She dared to say this because she knew Faye wasn't pressing charges. She gambled on the chance that Adrian didn't know the exact details. As long as Faye had backed off, she assumed Adrian would let it go too.
As for Raelynn...
She had accepted Sebastian's bribe, so she definitely wouldn't run her mouth to ruin her.
Adrian nodded as if he understood perfectly. "Does that mean your affair with Mr. Croix is also a misunderstanding?"
Instead of pursuing the patent issue, he pivoted straight to her personal life.
Seraphina's lips tightened, her pupils trembling.
Even Sebastian finally lifted his gaze.
Raelynn remained silent.
She knew it. Her senior was absolutely ruthless.
Feigning innocence, Adrian looked at Sebastian. "Is that true, Mr. Croix? You have no inappropriate relationship with Ms. Vance? She's just one of your thousands of employees?"
The color drained from Seraphina's lips.
She realized Adrian had completely cornered them.
Raelynn also understood his motive.
He wanted to force a definitive answer out of Sebastian.
Biting her lip, Seraphina looked pitifully at the man sitting with his legs crossed. She desperately wanted him to declare her importance in front of everyone—especially in front of Raelynn—and slap her rival across the face.
But...
"Yes, she's an employee."
Sebastian's voice was cold and steady. His unhurried tone made it impossible to decipher what he was really thinking.
Aside from her initial surprise, Raelynn felt nothing else.
No joy, no sorrow. Facts were facts, and she wasn't going to lie to herself.
As for Sebastian's attitude...
He didn't deny the affair to protect her dignity as "Mrs. Croix."
In reality, if Sebastian had denied she was an employee and declared her his true love, Seraphina's chances with Adrian would have been permanently ruined.
He was still looking out for Seraphina's future.
"An employee, huh? No wonder you two are so close. You must discuss work constantly," Adrian said, setting down his water glass. "But men and women should keep their distance. Tell me, Ms. Vance sticking by your side every single day... doesn't that ruin marital harmony?"
Sebastian cast a faint glance at Raelynn. "Does my wife mind?"
Raelynn hadn't expected him to throw the question back at her.
She wanted to call him a slippery bastard.
Without missing a beat, Adrian looked directly at Seraphina. "Bow and apologize to Raelynn, and I'll consider dropping my prejudice against you."

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!...
