Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 437

It had nothing to do with love.

It was about a man's innate sense of dignity.

Chloe thought that made sense and hastily wiped her eyes. "Should I tell my brother? I'm worried the Tanner family might try to retaliate."

Raelynn stopped her. "There's no need. Mr. Hudson has his hands full overseas, and besides, this is my problem. Sebastian was the one who threw the punches, so he'll handle the fallout."

She was certain of that, at least.

Sebastian wouldn't just leave a mess behind.

Chloe knew Raelynn had a lot on her plate.

But she had done some digging on Theon Tanner before coming over. "This Theon guy grew up abroad. He's a total mess, completely devoid of morals. He's crossed every legal line imaginable but puts up a good front. The Tanner family spoils him rotten. It's highly likely he's even involved with illegal substances over there."

Raelynn hadn't realized Theon was that disgusting.

"Of course, no one dares leak that kind of stuff," Chloe continued. "He only came back to the country to find a wife so he could fight for his inheritance. The Tanner family is dividing their assets right now, and he needs to get married ASAP to secure a bigger share. You were totally used."

In other words, anyone in their social circle would have easily uncovered Theon's true colors.

No respectable family would let their daughter marry him.

It all clicked for Raelynn.

She had been traded away as a favor?

Did Matilda know about Theon's background? Or did she know Theon would try something like that with her?

Whether Matilda knew the specifics or not, she undoubtedly knew what kind of man Theon was, yet she still used Raelynn as a bargaining chip to cozy up to the Tanner family, throwing her straight into the lion's den.

Raelynn let out a bitter scoff.

Just how vicious could people be?

They knew she was desperate for the divorce certificate, so they seized the chance to wring every last drop of value out of her.

Raelynn didn't stay at the hospital for long.

She was discharged that same morning.

She needed to make a trip to the main Croix estate.

The nightmare had happened, but she was going to get what she was owed.

Chloe wanted to march in with her for support.
