Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 430
Perfect timing.
Someone approached to offer a toast, bowing slightly.
In that brief distraction...
The buzzing phone suddenly fell silent.
The screen slowly faded to black.
Sebastian Croix finally tore his gaze away from the darkened display.
He didn't call back.
-
Theon Talbot glanced at the outgoing call screen in Raelynn's hand before snatching the phone away and hitting end.
Raelynn felt like her bones had melted into lead.
She couldn't muster an ounce of strength.
With her medical background, she recognized the symptoms immediately. She had been drugged. She'd walked right into a trap.
A hand patted her shoulder. "Not feeling well? Let me take you somewhere to rest."
Raelynn watched helplessly as her phone was tucked away.
She was completely incapacitated.
Even her throat felt paralyzed, rendering her unable to scream.
Theon maintained his charming smile as he wrapped an arm around her and guided her toward the exit.
-
Julian stepped outside after enduring a few rounds of drinks.
He leaned against the staircase railing, frowning as he recalled the interaction between Raelynn and Theon.
Theon had been abroad for years, and Julian didn't know the details of his return. But a blind date right away? Aiming for marriage?
It didn't sit right with him.
Julian pulled out his phone and ordered a background check on the man.
He needed to know how the hell he ended up on a date with Raelynn.
It would take a while to get a response.
Resting his elbows on the railing, he pulled out a cigarette.
He sparked his lighter.
Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted two figures walking intimately close around the landing.
He froze.
Julian stood up straight, recognizing the silhouettes instantly. It was Raelynn and Theon.
To his utter shock, Raelynn's head was resting on Theon's shoulder, letting him hold her close.
The undeniable intimacy, that unspoken chemistry between adults, made a lump form in Julian's throat.
Whatever she did was her own business.
Maybe she and Theon had just clicked immediately.
But who was he to police her life?
If it weren't for Seraphina, he probably would have stormed over and ruined their little love-at-first-sight moment.
His eyes scanned the area one last time, but there was no sign of her.
Julian pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Alright, lean on me," he offered his arm, keeping a respectful distance.
Seraphina offered a gentle smile. "Thank you."
As they turned around.
Her gaze quickly darted toward the hallway where Raelynn had disappeared.
-
Julian escorted Seraphina back to the ballroom.
Inside the glamorous vanity fair, Sebastian sat at the center of attention. He looked indifferent and completely unfazed, exuding a cold, untouchable aura.
Seraphina took the seat next to him.
She then turned back to her escort. "Thanks again, Julian. I feel much better now. It barely hurts."

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!...
