Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 428
Raelynn's attention was immediately pulled away.
Theon was tall and handsome, his features strikingly gentle beneath a pair of rimless glasses.
He wore a perfectly tailored suit, and a warm smile played on his lips as he approached.
Raelynn snapped out of her daze and nodded. "Hello, Mr. Tanner."
Julian watched the exchange with total bewilderment, frowning silently.
Of course, he knew who Theon was. The second son of the Tanner family, heavily favored by his elders. He had moved abroad as a child and spent most of his life studying there. He had likely just returned to the country.
Julian didn't know him well.
But they were acquainted through passing social circles.
Theon noticed Julian and offered a friendly handshake. "Julian, it's been a while. Thank you for coming out to support the event tonight."
Julian couldn't help but steal a sideways glance at Raelynn.
As he shook the man's hand. "How do you two know each other?"
He couldn't fathom how these two were connected.
Logically, Raelynn had no business knowing Theon Tanner.
"Ms. Ortiz and I are on a blind date tonight. Just getting to know each other," Theon answered without a hint of secrecy.
Julian froze, staring at Raelynn's perfectly calm face in absolute disbelief.
"A blind date?!" He practically thought he was hallucinating.
Raelynn despised Julian's incredulous, disapproving reaction, as if she were legally obligated to pine after Sebastian forever.
Ignoring him completely, she turned to Theon. "Shall we go somewhere a bit more private?"
Theon readily agreed, gesturing for her to lead the way.
Raelynn walked off without a backward glance.
Julian opened his mouth to say something.
But she didn't give him the chance.
Watching her walk away, his expression turned grim. A blind date? Was finding a new husband really that urgent for her?
She had barely just filed for divorce. Her desperation was appalling.
"Julian? What are you staring at?" Seraphina strolled over after finishing her rounds of schmoozing, catching a glimpse of Raelynn's silhouette disappearing into the dim lighting.
Turning the night into a standard social obligation for him.
Sebastian easily detected the strange tension radiating off Julian.
But he merely shot his friend a fleeting glance.
And didn't pry.

Theon led Raelynn into a private dining room tucked away from the chaotic ballroom.
It was intimately lit by candlelight, featuring only a single table.
Theon pulled out a chair for her. "Please, have a seat."
Raelynn thanked him and sat down.
He was far more gentlemanly than she had anticipated, entirely lacking the obnoxious arrogance typical of old-money heirs.
Theon was highly conversational. He waved a waiter over to pour their wine.
He started talking. "I suppose I should give you some context on my end. My grandmother and Matilda Croix are practically lifelong best friends. Because they're so close, they went out of their way to set this up. I had seen your photos beforehand, which is why I recognized you immediately. You're stunning, Ms. Ortiz; I couldn't possibly mistake you for anyone else."

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!...
