Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 358
Dr. Quinn's question dropped like a bomb, shattering the calm atmosphere.
Sebastian's dark, piercing eyes instantly locked onto Raelynn.
The air was suddenly sucked out of the room.
A cold sweat broke out across Raelynn's back, every hair on her body standing on end.
She never anticipated walking into a trap like this.
The moment the elderly woman grabbed her hand, Raelynn had recognized the expert touch of a master physician. But even with her internal alarms blaring, she had reacted a second too late.
Matilda's expression shifted drastically. "No, she hasn't. How on earth did you come to that conclusion?"
Taking advantage of the shock, Raelynn wrenched her hand away.
Her fingertips were ice-cold.
Worse, Sebastian hadn't stopped staring at her. His gaze felt like a scalpel, effortlessly slicing through her armor and probing at the secret she had so desperately buried.
It made her forget how to breathe normally.
Fighting to keep her face blank, she looked at Dr. Quinn.
Dr. Quinn stared back, visibly perplexed, looking Raelynn up and down. "Your body doesn't lie. That is the true marvel of traditional medicine. There's a distinct difference compared to someone who hasn't. However, Mrs. Croix's pulse is quite faint. Logically speaking, it must have been several years ago."
Raelynn had not prepared for this.
Matilda's schemes always managed to strike exactly where it hurt the most.
Sebastian's face remained utterly impassive, but his stare was practically burning a hole in Raelynn's back. His eyes were cold and clear. "Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
Dr. Quinn looked offended. "I have been treating patients and saving lives for decades. I don't make mistakes when reading a pulse."
The tension in the room thickened into concrete.
Matilda suddenly turned to Raelynn, a flicker of uncertainty in her eyes. "Maybe you should check again? Raelynn and Sebastian have been married for seven years, and they definitely don't have children."
Raelynn refused to look at him. In the span of a few seconds, her brain was in overdrive, consumed by a suffocating wave of despair.
She wanted to turn and run out the door, consequences be damned.
But she couldn't.
Bolting now would be the equivalent of screaming a confession.
"Here, here, let me feel it again."
Refusing to accept defeat, Dr. Quinn reached out and grabbed Raelynn's hand again without waiting for permission.
Raelynn violently suppressed the urge to snatch her hand away. She knew that the harder she fought it, the more suspicious she would look.
Having studied traditional medicine herself, she knew better than anyone that Dr. Quinn's skills were the real deal.
"Why don't you check Sebastian first? Maybe my pulse is just erratic because I've been overworking myself lately and running on empty," Raelynn suggested, desperately trying to buy time.

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!...
