Hearing the cold detachment in Raelynn's voice was like watching someone rip their own heart out.
It was the terrifying numbness that only came after endless cycles of abuse.
Chloe honestly felt that hiding a preschool-aged daughter from Sebastian was exactly what that bastard deserved! It was karma!
Knowing everything Raelynn had suffered, Chloe immediately cheered her on. "Men are like used tissues—completely worthless and utterly disgusting! A dog always returns to its vomit. Trash belongs in the dumpster!"
After hanging up, Raelynn didn't stop moving. She continued packing her personal items.
Seven years as a high-society wife, and everything she owned fit into exactly two suitcases.
She looked down at the diamond ring on her ring finger.
She rubbed it gently. Even though she had worn it so long it felt like a part of her, right now, it felt like a blade slicing into her skin.
Taking a deep breath, she pulled it off without an ounce of hesitation and dropped it straight into the folder with the divorce agreement.
Waiting until the dead of night, she loaded her suitcases into her car.
It was far too late to drive out.
She went back inside and slept in her clothes.
The next morning.
Raelynn was jolted awake by the sounds of heavy lifting and moving downstairs.
She had barely managed three hours of sleep, and the noise felt like a drill grinding into her skull.
Fighting through the exhaustion, she washed up and deliberately placed the divorce folder right in the center of her now-empty vanity.
Making sure that the second Sebastian walked in, he would see the surprise he had been waiting for.
Then, she headed downstairs.
Chloe had already found her a new apartment last night.
A new vanity, a new sofa, a new full-length mirror. Everything perfectly matched Seraphina's aesthetic.
"Who authorized this?" Raelynn asked, her face completely stone-cold.
Spencer jumped back, slightly startled by her icy demeanor, then fired back defensively. "My brother, obviously! Who else?"
"He doesn't want you anymore! He thinks you're disgusting! You're just a washed-up, used rag! If you know what's good for you, you'll pack up and leave!"
Raelynn's jaw clenched.
It felt like a sledgehammer had slammed into her chest, leaving her mind blank for several seconds.
She couldn't believe Sebastian was in such a rush to make room for the love of his life.
She had literally just caught him and pregnant Seraphina in the middle of their scandalous ER trip yesterday, and today he was already moving her in?
Was he preparing the marital home to welcome its new queen?

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!...
