Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 41

Raelynn didn't answer.

It was obvious, anyway.

Sebastian Croix was only ever willing to speak to her when no one else was watching.

In front of others, he always maintained a strict "distance" protocol.

"Did you take your medicine?" Sebastian asked, completely unfazed by her silence.

Raelynn didn't even turn her head. "I took it."

"Liar."

His tone didn't shift at all.

It was the voice of a man who knew her well, yet it lacked any genuine care. He was simply stating a fact.

Raelynn was speechless.

She had almost forgotten.

When they were first married, even if Sebastian didn't love her, he at least had basic decency.

Whenever she got sick, she absolutely refused to take medicine. She would just lie in bed and sleep, barely moving for a day or two, practically hibernating.

That was when he learned about her stubborn refusal to swallow pills.

Once, to get her to take her medicine, he had braved a bitterly awful herbal brew himself. He dragged her out from under the covers while she was still half-asleep, pinched her cheeks between his thumb and fingers to force her mouth open, and made her swallow it sip by sip.

They hadn't even been married for a month at that point.

Afterward, Sebastian had said, "If you actually die during our first month of marriage, people will start whispering that I'm cursed."

Raelynn had never felt an elevator ride dragging on this painfully long.

Sebastian's sudden show of concern made her even more uncomfortable.

"This is a cold remedy from the hospital. Try it." Sebastian casually extended his arm, easily dropping a brown paper bag into her arms.

Forced to catch it, Raelynn frowned. "I don't need it. Thanks."

She truly hadn't expected this.
