Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 544

Even if she took the plagiarism case to court, with Sebastian providing his elite legal team, Seraphina's chances of winning would skyrocket.

This entire situation.

Was fast approaching a dead end.

And the sole reason Seraphina could act so high and mighty...

Raelynn shot a freezing, almost mocking look at Sebastian.

With a backer like him, it was no wonder Seraphina was acting so untouchable.

Adrian also frowned.

If they truly allowed this to drag out, Raelynn was the one likely to end up swallowing the bitter pill.

Just as the standoff thickened.

The conference room doors were pushed open.

The Chancellor's secretary rushed in, leaning down to whisper urgently into the ears of both Chancellor Kirkwood and Adrian.

Both men's expressions shifted instantly.

They simultaneously turned their gazes toward Seraphina, and then toward Sebastian sitting beside her.

Seraphina offered a confident smile. "If we can't reach a definitive conclusion today, we can take our time. If there are no results, we can always schedule another..."

She slowly stood up.

Shooting a condescending smirk at Raelynn.

She was overestimating herself.

But Adrian suddenly smacked the table. Pushing up his glasses, he let out a sharp laugh. "What's the rush? Ms. Vance wanted evidence, didn't she? Well, what a coincidence. The university just uncovered something incredible."

Raelynn blinked in surprise.

Seraphina's chest tightened, a wave of unknown terror creeping down her spine.

"What?" she asked.

The Chancellor waved his hand. "Bring it up."

The secretary presented a USB drive.

Once it was plugged into the computer, a copied surveillance video blazed onto the projector screen.

Seraphina's face appeared perfectly on camera. Below it was a split-screen capturing another angle—one perfectly focused on her hands working the keyboard, recording her every move as she copied and pasted the files. The top left corner displayed the exact date and time, precise down to the second.

That single sentence.

Plunged the room into absolute dead silence.

Even Seraphina felt ice flood her veins.

She never imagined she would be destroyed by something like this.

It was supposed to be a massive financial investment to elevate her status in the eyes of the university. It was supposed to be her golden ticket into the research group. How could it possibly have turned into the fatal blade pressed against her own throat?

Even Raelynn couldn't believe it.

She turned to look at Sebastian.

The sweet, romantic gesture he had used to show off his devotion to Seraphina.

Had now become this...

If he had known this would be the outcome, would Sebastian have ever donated those machines to Kingsford University?

His expression remained completely unchanged, though the light in his dark eyes shifted into something dangerous and unreadable. He stared at the footage playing on the screen for a long time before his gaze hardened. "What does the administration intend to do?"

He threw the question right back at them.
