Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 451
Sebastian turned away, his eyes lowered as he pondered something. "I'll find another way. Leave it to me."
Seraphina nodded gratefully, her voice softening. "Thank you. You're the only one I can rely on."
They climbed into his waiting car. Before closing the door, Sebastian cast one last, indecipherable look toward the Kingsford campus.
The official announcement of Raelynn's title sent shockwaves through the industry.
NexusMind Technologies and Longstride Technologies suddenly found themselves at the center of a massive corporate frenzy. Their phones rang off the hook as investors and partners clamored for meetings. Within just forty-eight hours, Raelynn's surgical robotics division signed contracts for dozens of new units.
Her academic elevation served as the ultimate, indisputable marketing campaign.
Even Longstride Technologies, which had previously suffered through patent scandals, saw its stock prices surge. The influx of massive partnership deals effectively doubled their revenue in days.
Preston Moreno was swamped with the sudden boom in business. Though they hadn't publicly advertised Raelynn as the lead developer for the surgical robots, her reputation preceded her.
"Everyone understands the sheer weight of being Kingsford's youngest Professor of Exceptional Merit," Preston told her over the phone. "They figure you're on a fast track to the top of the medical field, so buying your tech now is just a way to get their foot in the door with you."
The industry wasn't stupid. A twenty-seven-year-old professor at a top-tier institution was guaranteed to make global waves.
As a result, Raelynn was inundated with calls. Eventually, she stopped answering altogether, exhausted by the endless stream of congratulations from people whose names she barely remembered.
During the chaos, her phone lit up with a call from the Croix family estate.
She stared at the screen for a few seconds, then muted it.
She didn't answer.
Across the city, Sebastian walked out of Croix Holdings. As he approached his car, his phone buzzed with a call from Matilda Croix.
He stopped and answered.
The Matriarch's tone was sharp and irritated. "Did you know about Raelynn's new position beforehand?"
"What do you think?" Sebastian countered smoothly.
Sebastian's dark eyes betrayed nothing.
After hanging up, he got into the car.
Seraphina was sitting in the back seat, her face ghostly pale in the dim interior. She had heard everything.
Matilda Croix had completely flipped her stance. The power dynamic between Seraphina and Raelynn had just violently reversed.
Even though Sebastian hadn't explicitly agreed to bring Raelynn back for a grand banquet, the fact that the Matriarch wanted to publicly claim her was terrifying.
Sebastian glanced in the rearview mirror. "What's wrong?"
Seraphina shook her head stiffly. "Nothing."
She lowered her gaze, a tempest of panic and jealousy raging in her chest. She couldn't just sit back and let this happen.

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!...
