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.
