Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 537
Seraphina frowned instinctively. She knew Sebastian would help her, just like he always did.
But right now, she didn't want to be the one begging.
She wanted Sebastian to step in and shield her from the disaster before she even had to ask.
Or, at the very least, call to check on her.
"I'll talk to Sebastian, but not right this second," Seraphina snapped, snatching her phone back from Blanche in sheer irritation.
"Why are you being so stubborn at a time like this?" Blanche's anxiety was skyrocketing.
Even Silas looked remarkably grim. "The entire family business is on the verge of collapse, Seraphina. This isn't the time to play romantic games. Be smart about this."
Seraphina pressed her lips into a thin line. "They leaked a live broadcast. You both knew the cameras were rolling, and you still couldn't watch what you said. And the director in charge? She's Raelynn's best friend. They teamed up to completely destroy us."
Silas's expression darkened.
Blanche hurried to play peacemaker. "Nobody wanted this to happen. Let's just throw some money at the media outlets to suppress the story. Get it taken down as fast as possible."
Silas let out a harsh laugh. "You think a little pocket change is going to fix this? Anyone with eyes can see Sebastian Croix's name tied up in this mess. It'll take millions to make this disappear! With investors pulling out and our stock plummeting, how much liquid cash do you think we actually have?"
They were completely boxed in!
Seraphina squeezed her eyes shut.
"They didn't explicitly say I tampered with anything, so it doesn't hold up as concrete proof. As long as Kingsford University doesn't find physical evidence, we can drag this out."
There were no security cameras in that specific lab.
No one could directly link her to the sabotage.
As for the live broadcast, all they had to do was vehemently deny the context.
Blanche's expression turned vicious. "Raelynn can't do anything to you anyway. Just look at her mother. She thought she was so smart, but we played her right into our hands. She wouldn't hand over the shop, and we took it anyway."
Silas's face changed drastically.
Leo stayed quiet for a moment.
After a heavy pause, he sighed softly. "I'll be honest with you. Colin and I are drinking buddies, nothing more. I already asked around for you. This story has massive traction. It involves Raelynn, the youngest professor at Kingsford, whom the entire country is suddenly obsessed with. Everyone is watching this unfold. For the network, this is an absolute goldmine of traffic. Nobody is going to walk away from that kind of money."
Seraphina's heart skipped a beat.
She knew Leo was telling the truth.
He sounded apologetic, but he was completely unwilling to lift a finger to fix her mess.
In the past, wouldn't he have done absolutely everything in his power to bail her out?
His sudden distance felt incredibly jarring and deeply unsettling.
"Then we'll just have to think of another way," Seraphina said softly, choosing not to push him.
She knew better.

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!...
