Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 46

It was always better to be on guard.

She definitely couldn't risk a slip-up exposing the truth, which would be impossible to clean up.

Raelynn hadn't expected Preston to be so aggressively protective.

He had basically flipped the table on them, leaving the entire group speechless and embarrassed.

Leo was quick on his feet. He immediately changed the subject, saying, "Other people's family drama has nothing to do with us. Since we have such an incredible master here today, Seraphina, haven't you been feeling under the weather lately? Why not let him take a look?"

Seraphina froze at the suggestion.

She instinctively glanced at the highly respected Elder Physician, then at Raelynn.

Pursing her lips, she finally said, "No need, I'm perfectly fine."

"And I wouldn't want to waste resources and take up time from people who actually need it."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Raelynn caught the thinly veiled sarcasm.

She was accusing Raelynn of wasting the doctor's time.

Raelynn pulled her hand back and stood up calmly. "True, you're perfectly healthy. But the Mr. Croix standing next to you might actually need the help."

After all, Sebastian had personally told her years ago that he wouldn't be having children. He definitely needed treatment!

With that, Raelynn turned to leave.

Sebastian cast a casual, sideways glance at her.

He knew exactly what she meant.

Ignoring the emotional jab, he simply checked his watch. "Alright. Business first."

At those words, Seraphina's face lit up with excitement.

"Will Professor Finch be here today?"

Sebastian had brought her here today specifically to meet Professor Alistair Finch, the absolute pinnacle of traditional medicine.

If she could become Professor Finch's direct student, securing any partnership she wanted would require no more than a single word from him.

Sebastian was literally solving her problems from the root.

Leo looked around and offered comforting words. "As long as he meets you, Professor Finch will love you. You're practically a public figure now, you have the halo effect and the media exposure. You are the absolute perfect candidate to lead the revival of traditional medicine."

Seraphina couldn't help but smile.

She truly believed Leo was right.

Traditional medicine was on a downward trend.

It needed fresh blood, and it needed media exposure and a positive image.

But more importantly, she knew that the person behind the scenes, fueling Seraphina's rise and building her golden pedestal, was Sebastian.

When a man loves a woman, he truly spares no effort to lift her up—

She shrugged. "Let them exhaust themselves trying."

The gala continued for another two hours.

After it ended, Preston was pulled away for networking.

Raelynn went to the parking area alone to get her car.

Just as she approached and reached for the door handle.

She heard an annoyed voice from behind: "Raelynn, don't you think you're crossing a line?"

Raelynn turned around.

It was Seraphina.

Her pretty face was twisted in a sneer, her eyes darting between Raelynn and Raelynn's new car.

Beside Seraphina stood Sebastian and Leo.

"What is it now, Miss Home-wrecker?" Raelynn simply leaned against her car door, waiting to see what garbage she was about to spew.
