Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 650

She had been completely trapped back then.

With no other choice, she birthed Shane Vance.

She figured that even if Theon was a bastard, the Tanner family would eventually want to claim their own blood.

If she ever found herself pushed into a corner, she could always use the kid as leverage.

But she never in a million years anticipated that it would be exposed under these exact circumstances—getting spit on by thousands of people, stripped naked of her dignity, and driving the Tanners away in sheer disgust. Her absolute last resort had been brutally slaughtered in the crib.

If today hadn't happened.

The Tanners might have quietly accepted the child behind closed doors...

But now, absolutely everything was obliterated.

Theon understood exactly what Sebastian was implying. He also picked up on the hidden message—this entire catastrophe was a direct result of their own reckless filth. They had made their beds, and now they had to lie in them.

A violent, delayed panic set in.

If the authorities actually launched an investigation.

He was completely finished!

His past antics had all happened abroad, and any messes in the country had always been neatly scrubbed by the family. But now that this had blown up to this scale, there was zero chance of escaping.

Theon abandoned any thought of retaliating against Seraphina.

He turned and sprinted for the exit.

He had to leave the country immediately. Every second counted.

But barely a few steps away.

He was intercepted again.

Eleanor practically howled, rushing forward to shield him. "Bastards! Don't you dare lay a finger on my grandson!"

Total, chaotic madness erupted in the hall.

The massive scandal suddenly belonged entirely to Seraphina and the Tanner family.

Forrest cast a deeply thoughtful glance at Sebastian.

He had known about the rest of the dirt, but that final video of Seraphina and the Tanner boy had been completely off his radar. If it had been up to him, he would never have exposed that specific detail at his welcome banquet and permanently burned the bridge with the Tanners.

Although the Tanners weren't as powerful as the Croix empire.

Forrest was already looking right back at him. Even without an ounce of anger or joy in his gaze, the look made Cameron break into a cold sweat. He knew exactly what it meant—Grandpa had figured out exactly what Seraphina was about to say.

And his violent reaction to shut her up.

Only proved that it was the absolute truth.

Forrest stared at Cameron for a second before issuing a cold command. "Throw her out."

He repeated his order.

If Seraphina kept causing a scene and explicitly named Cameron as the father, it would still trace back to the Croix family. And with her current radioactive reputation, the family would still end up catching the backlash.

Cameron fully understood that Forrest was likely going to settle the score with him later.

He stiffened even more.

Meanwhile.

Sebastian watched the entire spectacle unfold with unhurried amusement.

He slowly and elegantly poured himself another cup of tea.

Seraphina ultimately never got to finish her sentence. As the security guards dragged her away, she broke down in a delayed wave of panic, twisting back to look at Sebastian. "Sebastian, I refuse to believe you never loved me! Answer me..."
