Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 434
Still under the influence of the drugs, Raelynn's brain was sluggish.
She just stared at him. His eyes were so dark and predatory they were terrifying, yet his tone remained surprisingly gentle.
Sebastian didn't wait for her to process it.
He wrapped an arm around her waist, effortlessly hoisting her up, and snagged her discarded heels from the floor in one smooth motion.
Carrying her to the sofa behind them, he sat down and positioned her sideways across his lap. He draped his suit jacket carefully over her upper body and face, completely shielding her identity so the cameras would only catch the back of her head.
Raelynn couldn't find the strength to fight him.
She had no choice but to let him orchestrate the scene.
He leaned down slightly, slipping the stilettos back onto her feet.
His movements were swift and meticulous.
Through the gap in the jacket, she saw the horrifying smear of blood across the back of his right hand.
"Raelynn."
The chaotic noise outside was growing louder by the second.
Sebastian adjusted the collar of the jacket around her shoulders, tucking her in even tighter. His gaze grew dangerously dark. "Close your eyes."
She knew the swarm of reporters was just seconds away. To say she wasn't terrified would be a lie.
If the truth of tonight got out, her reputation would be utterly destroyed.
Her subconscious urge to push him away faltered, her hands freezing against his chest.
Steeling her nerves, she squeezed her eyes shut.
He cupped her cheek.

Seraphina arrived on the floor but didn't walk all the way down.
She watched the pack of reporters sprint toward the room, heavy cameras in hand.
With a raised brow, she leaned casually against the wall.
Raelynn had been taken away by Theon.
Seraphina knew exactly what kind of man he was from their time abroad.
There was no way Raelynn was getting out of this unscathed.
And with this many reporters swarming, if they captured even a single scandalous frame, Raelynn would become the laughingstock of high society.
The Croix family would never tolerate a disgraced daughter-in-law.
She observed from afar.
Sebastian kept Raelynn's face pressed against his shoulder, casually turning his gaze toward the doorway.
"Is my wife and I enjoying a private date front-page news now?"
One sentence changed everything.
The paparazzi collectively gasped.
Everyone in the industry knew who he was. An interview with the elusive Sebastian Croix was the holy grail of journalism. No one dared disrespect him.
And at the mention of the word 'wife', all eyes widened as they stared at the woman hiding in his coat.
They had just photographed the notoriously secretive Mrs. Croix!
"Our deepest apologies, Mr. Croix! We didn't mean to intrude," one of the older reporters blurted out, quickly backing away.
The rest of the pack immediately followed suit.
None of them wanted to be the one to piss off the billionaire.
They scattered like mice. Someone even had the foresight to pull the damaged door shut. No one bothered to ask why it looked like a bomb had gone off against the lock.
They vanished just as quickly as they'd arrived.
Raelynn could instantly sense the danger had passed.
Gathering the last of her energy, she shoved hard against his chest.

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!...
