Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 725
Raelynn stepped back instinctively as he approached, her brow furrowing. "You don't have to dress up your ruthlessness to make it look so glamorous. Whether he's willing or not, that doesn't give you the right to use me as a bargaining chip."
Besides.
She didn't believe Ian had to submit to this kind of extortion. Furthermore, his business decisions weren't made in a vacuum. Walking away from a massive real estate deal wasn't going to be easy.
Seeing her defensive stance.
It was obvious she was protecting Ian, already finding excuses for him in advance.
Sebastian slowly pulled back, a dark, predatory gleam in his eyes. "If your so-called true love can't even compete with the profit in front of him, Raelynn, then you will always be his second choice. It means you're nothing but a calculated risk he'd gladly abandon if the price is right."
"Does it look like I need you worrying about me?"
Raelynn shot back.
They had never really known how to communicate peacefully; every word they exchanged was designed to draw blood.
Sebastian stared at her in silence for a moment. "No, you don't."
In a foul mood, Raelynn stood up. Knowing she couldn't stop the Croix family from weaponizing this situation made her sick to her stomach.
She took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping over Sebastian's bandaged arm and the cast on his leg. "Not everyone is as heartless as you are. By using this to line your own pockets, you're dragging someone else's genuine feelings into your sick little game."
"As for your leg and your injuries, since I promised to be your physical therapist, I will come by regularly to manage your medications and assist with your treatments. I won't owe you anything on that front."
With that, Raelynn turned on her heel and walked out without hesitation.
She didn't spare a single ounce of nostalgia for the place that was once her home.
Even though it was late into the night.
Sebastian remained in his wheelchair, his gaze tracking her retreating figure. Finally, he spoke softly, "Have the driver take her back."
Mary had been standing nearby, listening in terror.
Now, she nodded frantically and hurried away to escape the tension.
He picked up the divorce agreement, pinched it between his fingers, and ruthlessly tore it to shreds, tossing the pieces into the trash.

Raelynn didn't refuse the car Sebastian arranged.
After all, she hadn't driven herself there.
She had the driver take her straight back to the hospital.
Her mind was racing during the ride.
She thought about how Sebastian was essentially going to sell her out.
She thought about that fateful night with him on the cruise ship years ago. By the next morning, rumors were flying everywhere. The gossip had even reached her campus, and the media had begun reporting wildly on the scandal without officially naming names.
It had cornered the Croix family, forcing them to issue a public statement claiming the two were already deeply in love. Matilda Croix had been forced to approve the marriage just to do damage control.

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!...
