Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 727
Raelynn couldn't hide her frustration, her expression darkening.
She knew there was no room for negotiation.
Just as she feared, Sebastian spoke up. "Mr. Hudson, you don't need to act like I'm some selfless hero. I saved Lily, that's a fact. If you want to settle the score, I don't mind laying it out plainly. If you're willing to hand over the East District land, I'll consider that proof of how much Raelynn and Lily mean to you."
Ian's gaze turned predatory.
He had considered many possibilities.
He wondered if Sebastian's reckless gamble meant he had guessed something, or if he had an ulterior motive.
Now, it was confirmed.
He had his eyes on the highly coveted plot of land.
The Hudson family had connections at the top, making the endless maze of approvals much smoother, which naturally made them a thorn in the side of countless rival corporations.
And Sebastian was attacking them directly from this angle.
"Mr. Croix, those are two entirely separate matters, aren't they?"
Sebastian replied coolly, "In the cutthroat world of business, do methods really matter?"
He lifted his gaze, sweeping a glance over Raelynn before saying calmly, "Besides, that day marked our first true collaboration. You saved Raelynn, and I saved Lily."
A faint, unreadable smirk tugged at the corner of Sebastian's lips. "Should I praise you for your immense generosity, Mr. Hudson, or marvel at your boundless trust in me? In a life-or-death crisis, you actually felt comfortable leaving Lily's rescue to an 'outsider' like me. How should one evaluate you as a father?"
Sebastian always went straight for the jugular.
He brutally exposed a fact that everyone had subconsciously ignored or overlooked.
Ian's eyes darkened.
Raelynn was taken aback.
"Does that include compensating me for intruding on my marriage?" Sebastian asked lazily. "No one wants to wear that kind of reputation. Since you value Raelynn so much, make it simple. Use the land to prove your sincerity."
"Sebastian! That's enough!" Raelynn snapped, unable to tolerate it anymore.
Ian narrowed his eyes. "What do you see Raelynn as, Mr. Croix? A bargaining chip for your own profit?"
"Does it matter?" Sebastian countered. "If you're willing to go up against the Hudson family for her, I'm genuinely curious to see how much your sincerity is actually worth."
The reality was stark.
To hand over the land, Ian would have to bypass the Hudson family's board.
It wasn't impossible, but it depended entirely on his willingness to fight for it.
"What exactly is your endgame?" Raelynn asked, her mood plummeting. She took a deep breath, glaring at Sebastian. "Our wedding is right around the corner. Do you just have to make everyone miserable?"
"Who's miserable?" Sebastian met her gaze head-on. "What are you so afraid of? What are you running from? Or do you just feel like you don't hold enough weight in his heart?"

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!...
