Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 461
Sebastian's lips parted slightly, his eyes a pitch-black void.
But Raelynn wasn't finished. "We're even. I never stood in the way of you and Seraphina, and I happily gave up my spot for her. Likewise, you have absolutely no right to police my life."
She didn't mind throwing gasoline onto the fire of his misunderstanding.
He was the one who asked "Whose is it?" first. She was just playing along.
It was for the best. Let him think exactly that.
She didn't care if he despised her. All that mattered was that even if he eventually discovered Lily was hers, this fabricated "betrayal" would ensure he kept his distance.
Sebastian stared deeply at the reckless defiance etched into her face.
He took another step toward her, his voice steeped in ice. "Tell me. Who is he, and where have you hidden the child?"
Overwhelmed by his predatory aura, Raelynn instinctively backed away.
She hadn't expected him to be so relentlessly fixated on getting answers.
She gritted her teeth. "Why should I tell you? What, are you going to seek revenge?"
He locked onto her defensive posture and her flushed, furious eyes.
After several seconds of silence, he spoke, enunciating every single word. "You could have just told me earlier. I might have even stepped aside and let you be with him."
Even though Raelynn had weathered enough heartbreak to make her bulletproof.
Hearing those words still felt like a physical blow.
Because with that one sentence, he had entirely invalidated all her years of devotion.
He was telling her that she had never meant a thing to him. That he could have handed her off to another man at any moment, tossing her aside like a burdensome piece of luggage.
"Does Ian know?" Sebastian asked. "Though I suppose he wouldn't mind. It's only fair, right? You both share a similar past—both bringing a child into the mix."
Raelynn remained completely silent.
Sebastian mirrored her silence for a moment.
Then he continued, "You don't need to guard against me. I wouldn't stoop so low as to do anything to a child. If we ever met, I might even write them a generous check. I wouldn't tell them how their mother gave birth to them while legally married to someone else."
He hadn't even raised his voice. His pitch remained perfectly even and controlled.
She didn't care if their fallout tore the world apart. All she cared about was that hidden child.
His gaze dropped.
He noticed her trembling from sheer rage, struggling so fiercely to maintain control.
The delicate skin on her knuckles stretched white with tension.
A sudden, eerie stillness fell over him.
He stared at her for a long time.
Then, slowly, he took a step back.
Raelynn herself hadn't expected things to escalate to physical violence.
She had actually slapped Sebastian.
In his entire life, it was highly likely no one had ever dared lay a hand on him.
But he didn't retaliate. His eyes were arctic, his parting words even crueler. "If you haven't confessed to Ian about this child... don't worry. I won't ruin your perfect new romance."

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!...
