Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 500

Raelynn's words were sharp and unforgiving.

Jeanette's face lost all its color, her usually elegant features twisting with fury as her chest heaved with heavy, outraged breaths.

Raelynn had lost her mind!

She had gone completely insane tonight!

How dare she spout such outrageous treason!

Even Cyrus, standing a few feet away, darkened with anger. He immediately shot a glaring look at Sebastian, who hadn't lifted a finger to stop Raelynn's rampage.

His expression was etched with deep disapproval.

Matilda Croix hadn't anticipated that forcing Raelynn to attend tonight's gala would result in such a catastrophic surprise for the Croix family.

She clutched her pearls tightly. "Enough! Haven't you humiliated us enough for one night?"

Raelynn had completely shredded their facade. Tonight, the Croix family had officially become the laughingstock of Kingsford's elite!

If the retired chairman in Canada found out about this, there would be hell to pay for everyone.

Raelynn's gaze was ice-cold as she stared down the hypocritical matriarch. "The Croix family dug this grave, I'm just reading the headstone. If you're embarrassed, it's because your family is rotten to the core, not because I dared to speak the truth. And another thing—do not ever disrupt my life again. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what I'll do next time."

She was genuinely furious over the fabricated divorce certificate.

The Croix family had pushed her to the absolute breaking point.

If they thought they could still use her to maintain their precious reputation, they were dead wrong.

Matilda's wrinkled lips trembled as she glared at her. "Are you truly not going to regret what you've done today?"

Raelynn offered a slow, bitter smile, her reddened eyes flashing with unbreakable resolve. "I've always been completely serious. When I say I'm done, I am done."

From the moment she first brought up the divorce, the family had treated it like a joke. They assumed it was a bluff, convinced she was still desperately clinging to Sebastian and the Croix fortune.

They had never once taken her boundaries seriously.

Well, tonight she was making it undeniably clear: she had zero interest in Sebastian's heart, and there was no going back!

Matilda was stunned into silence.

Even Sebastian, who had seemed entirely indifferent to the evening's chaos, finally let his gaze trace every inch of Raelynn's face.

His dark eyes were an endless, unfathomable abyss.

But Raelynn couldn't care less what was going on in his head.

His eyes were eerily calm, yet they swirled with a dark, predatory intensity. Just the weight of his stare was enough to send a bone-chilling shiver down anyone's spine.

"If we're talking about disrespect," he said smoothly, "Raelynn still has a long way to go to catch up to me."

"After all, didn't I almost burn my own father alive years ago?"

He delivered the line with terrifying casualness, yet the words sliced through the air like a lethal blade, instantly suffocating everyone in the circle.

The surrounding faces morphed into portraits of horror.

Jeanette and Cyrus looked especially stricken.

Jeanette's spine went rigid with fear.

For years, Sebastian had buried his true, ruthless nature beneath a veneer of flawless charm and restraint. They had almost forgotten the monster that lurked beneath that immaculate custom suit.

Even Cyrus furrowed his brow.

His son was, fundamentally, a cold-blooded sociopath who cared absolutely nothing for family ties.

Sebastian made no effort to clarify or soften his threat.

He simply let the storm of his words wreak havoc.
