Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 628

He had a photographic memory. He never forgot a detail.

It was highly possible the piece was still hanging somewhere in the shop.

She quickly typed back: [I'm free. Just let me know what time works best for you.]

Right after hitting send, Raelynn turned toward the lobby of the building.

A sleek car pulled up to the curb.

Seraphina Vance stepped out. It had been weeks since they last saw each other.

The stress of the past month had clearly taken its toll. No amount of expensive makeup could hide the exhaustion etched into Seraphina's features. The moment her eyes locked onto Raelynn, they turned venomous.

Raelynn didn't hold back. She gave a faint, mocking scoff.

Seraphina had played with fire and burned her own house down.

Without a word, Raelynn ignored her and strode confidently into the building.

Seeing that dismissive, arrogant smirk made Seraphina's blood boil. She clenched her fists so tightly her nails bit into her skin, her breathing erratic.

Raelynn was mocking her!

She was enjoying the show!

For the past half-month, Seraphina had been too terrified to attend a single public event. She had avoided anyone connected to the Yves family, hiding away in her villa to weather the storm.

She was terrified that showing her face too soon would invite a public humiliation that would ruin her forever.

But today, Keystone Manufacturing was holding a critical shareholder meeting regarding a major corporate restructuring.

All shareholders were required to attend, or their absence would be counted as an automatic forfeiture of voting rights.

She had no choice but to show up.

She didn't know much about running a business, but she desperately needed an excuse to get out of the house.

She walked into the sprawling lobby.

But before she could take more than a few steps, a violent wave of nausea hit her like a punch to the gut.

Seraphina clamped a hand over her mouth and bolted for the nearest restroom.

She hunched over the sink, dry heaving.

Stomach acid burned her throat as a cold sweat broke out across her body.

Leaning heavily against the marble counter, Seraphina stared at her pale reflection in the mirror, horror dawning in her eyes.

Using a baby to force his hand would skyrocket their chances of success!

"But if I am pregnant, it's not Sebastian's..." Seraphina's heart hammered against her ribs, her face ashen. If only that night hadn't been a disaster, she wouldn't have to live in this state of sheer terror.

"It doesn't matter! A pregnancy lasts nine months. We have plenty of time to deal with the details later. The only thing that matters right now is locking down the marriage and securing your title as Mrs. Croix. Once that's done, what is there to worry about?"

Seraphina gripped her phone tighter.

The uncertainty in her eyes morphed into something dark and calculated.

She didn't have the luxury of playing it safe.

The Vance family was on the brink of collapse, drowning in daily crises.

She was out of time.

"Got it. I'm going to take a test to be absolutely sure. Once it's confirmed, I'm going straight to Sebastian to lay my cards on the table."

She hung up the phone.

The critical Keystone shareholder meeting was completely forgotten. Whether she voted on corporate strategy or not wouldn't affect her dividend payouts. Right now, there was only one thing that mattered...

Making Sebastian Croix agree to marry her.
