Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 410
Raelynn stared at the man's strikingly handsome face.
A chilling wave of realization washed over her heart.
She instantly understood what Sebastian was doing.
He knew exactly what her goal was. So, he was beating her at her own game, fully aware that she couldn't afford to bluff at those numbers.
Furthermore,
Sebastian was sending her a direct warning.
He could be the host, and he could be the buyer. The antiques she was so desperate to protect would still never end up in her hands.
Seraphina's eyes immediately swam with touched tears.
She shot Raelynn a smug, triumphant glance.
Her smile grew sickeningly sweet.
Raelynn finally understood.
She couldn't outplay Sebastian.
A suffocating sense of defeat filled her chest, grating like hot sand against her lungs. She looked at him with absolute despair.
Sebastian seemed completely oblivious to her emotional turmoil.
He spoke smoothly, "Thank you all for coming today. I'll take this first piece to start things off right, and I'll be gifting it to a lucky guest here in the audience."
Raelynn's head snapped toward him.
She thought she had misheard.
As his words settled over the room,
a wave of enthusiastic cheers erupted.
Seraphina was momentarily stunned before gazing at him with absolute adoration. "Seb, thank you for doing all of this for me..."
Sebastian was buying it just to give it away to a wealthy guest.
He was expanding her network, fortifying the PR stunt to clean her reputation, and laying down the bricks for her future. When she eventually launched her next project, the people in this room—the people who had benefited from Sebastian's generosity today—would become her most loyal allies.
It was a masterstroke of manipulation!
Raelynn saw right through the layers of his strategy.
Her chest physically ached.
She let out a bitter, self-deprecating smile.
When it came to ruthless games like this, she truly was no match for Sebastian.
He had utterly blocked her path.
He was telling her that if she kept trying to sabotage the bids, he would simply keep matching them and giving her family's treasures away to strangers.
Chloe went ahead to pull the car around.
Raelynn took one last look around the small building.
As she rounded the corner,
she spotted the welcome sign.
At the very bottom, it listed the hosts.
Sebastian Croix, Seraphina Vance.
Their names sat side by side.
It looked exactly like a welcome sign for a bride and groom.
"Oh, there you are. Perfect timing. We booked a restaurant—do you want to join us?"
Raelynn turned around.
Seraphina and Sebastian were walking toward her, side by side.
Seraphina was glowing with triumph. They had cleared over forty million dollars in sales today.
Every cent was going to The Charity Foundation.
It was a massive boost to her public image, ensuring the media would focus on her philanthropy and conveniently forget the malpractice scandal at Gracefield Private Hospital.

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!...
