Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 547

At those words, the color drained from Seraphina's face.

Blanche, having rushed over just in time to hear, lunged forward. "Silas Vance! Why are you taking your anger out on the child?! This is all because you didn't raise Raelynn properly! She's the real culprit here!"

Silas was in a foul mood. He collapsed onto the sofa and aggressively lit a cigarette. The Vance family was facing threats from all sides. The company was under official investigation, and the antique shop had just been exposed as Raelynn's rightful property. They had essentially stolen her nest egg. Given the current public outrage, even if they tried to demand the shop back from Sebastian, they couldn't do it openly. The backlash would drown them.

Seraphina's gaze trembled for a long time.

Blanche stepped up and took her hand, giving it a soothing pat. "Kingsford University is still processing your academic records. It'll take a few days for the official procedures to go through, even if the notice is already out. Don't worry. This kind of situation isn't impossible to fix."

At her words, Seraphina looked up with a glimmer of hope.

Silas glared at her. "What do you mean by that?"

"Nobody wants the Vance family to be dragged down like this," Blanche said coldly. "I have a way. I can do my best to protect Sera. Once she's on solid ground, the company's problems will naturally resolve themselves."

Meanwhile, the news of Seraphina's expulsion had already caused a massive uproar. Countless people were gossiping about the scandal.

Sebastian returned to the Croix estate. The moment he walked through the door, Matilda Croix greeted him with a dark expression. "Seraphina is a ticking time bomb! Anyone who associates with her is going to be dragged through the mud. Sebastian, you should know the stakes better than anyone."

Sebastian had been seen escorting Seraphina publicly, and many in their social circle had witnessed it. Now, Seraphina was embroiled in a massive scandal—audaciously framing a Kingsford University professor and committing academic fraud. Although the public hadn't uncovered the exact details of the fraud, the false accusations against the professor were an undeniable fact.

Stiffening her posture, she retorted, "The past is the past. All you have to do is cut off contact now. You know me, Sebastian. If I wanted to, I could use a hundred different methods to ensure the Vance family never rises again."

Her generation had fought tooth and nail to build their empire. They were no strangers to ruthless, underhanded tactics.

It was a blatant threat.

Sebastian set down his glass, his long fingers lightly tracing the condensation on the outside. "I'm afraid that won't work," he rejected her demand coolly.

Matilda's face twisted in fury as she delivered her ultimatum. "Are you really going to force me to bring your grandfather back to take charge?!"
