Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 643

Forrest clutched his walking cane, his cloudy but razor-sharp eyes darting to Seraphina's stomach for a fraction of a second.

In that single second.

Sebastian spoke up, addressing his grandfather. "You must be exhausted from the long journey."

He didn't acknowledge Seraphina's display, nor did he even glance in her direction.

Seraphina stiffened slightly.

She had fully expected Sebastian to stand up, wrap an arm around her, and formally introduce her to Forrest, announcing their plans to marry.

But...

She was standing there completely alone.

An inexplicable wave of awkwardness and discomfort washed over her.

And her mention of the baby she was carrying.

It had drawn the piercing stares of everyone at the Croix family table. They looked at her as if evaluating a piece of merchandise on display, making her squirm inwardly.

As if she were only fit to remain standing while they sat in judgment.

Cameron, in particular, kept letting his gaze drift over her. His eyes burned with intense scrutiny and a faint, lingering suspicion.

"Mm," Forrest grunted in response to Sebastian.

Meanwhile.

Tristan, having seen Raelynn get shoved aside by Seraphina, helped her wipe the spilled drink with a tissue before gently pulling her closer to the table.

Raelynn was completely caught off guard, suddenly finding herself dragged into this...

Interrogation of the prospective Croix family bride.

At the table.

Sebastian slowly lifted his gaze and looked right at her.

Raelynn took a step back.

She had zero desire to get involved.

Forrest didn't seem to notice Raelynn.

He glanced at Seraphina, who was still holding her teacup, frozen in place, and asked in a flat tone, "What is your profession? How is your career progressing?"

Seraphina's face stiffened for a fleeting second.

Her work and progress... were an absolute disaster.

Outsmarted by Raelynn, losing the market to NexusMind Technologies, dealing with a massive product failure, getting publicly expelled and reprimanded by Kingsford University, and now having offended the Yves family, who were poised to ruin her at any moment.

There was not a single achievement she could proudly present.

Recovering quickly, she offered a polite smile. "Because of my pregnancy, I need to focus on my health. I don't have the energy to juggle my career right now, so I plan to take some time off to rest."

What kind of theatrical spectacle was this?

Raelynn frowned as well.

Forrest ignored her completely, his piercing gaze locked onto Sebastian. "What is your relationship?"

Sebastian's expression didn't shift in the slightest. Looking entirely detached from the drama, he enunciated every word. "No relationship at all."

His calm, chillingly indifferent voice dropped like a bomb.

Seraphina froze in stunned disbelief.

She thought she must have misheard.

She whipped her head toward him.

Only to see Sebastian's undisturbed face, radiating... absolute, heartless apathy.

Raelynn, who was standing further back, felt a brief wave of shock wash over her at his words.

She stared at Sebastian in total bewilderment.

Not to mention the rest of the Croix family.

Every head snapped up.

Whether satisfied or not, Forrest pressed further. "And the child she's carrying? What are your thoughts on that?"
