Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 73
"Model boyfriend alert, I won't even say who's jealous-"
"If you guys are tying the knot soon, you have to invite us."
Julian walked over, cast a sidelong glance at Raelynn, and tilted his head with a soft chuckle. "Even if Mr. Croix forgets to send out invitations, I'll make sure they get delivered. Don't worry, everyone."
Seraphina immediately offered a helpless smile. "Mr. Yves, please stop joking around. We have important business to focus on today."
Her prioritizing the big picture earned her even more admiring glances.
"Mr. Moreno isn't here?"
Seraphina suddenly asked.
Raelynn was surrounded by NexusMind colleagues coordinating the project. Everyone's eyes turned to Raelynn. They all knew she was the one in charge after Mr. Moreno.
Raelynn looked over. "Any pointers?"
Seraphina looked perfectly composed. "If Mr. Moreno isn't here, who calls the shots?"
For a joint project this important, someone with Raelynn's mediocre level of expertise trying to get in on the action—wouldn't that just give her an unearned author credit on the margins?
"Is Ms. Vance trying to speak on behalf of Kingsford University?" Raelynn countered.
Seraphina let out a short laugh. "I was just asking. There's no need to put words in my mouth."
"You're very sensitive," Raelynn replied flatly.
Seraphina's expression froze for a moment.
Choked on her own words, a flash of displeasure crossed her eyes.
How could Raelynn be so unrefined, speaking with so much venom!
The atmosphere instantly grew awkward.
Everyone turned to look at Raelynn.
And they couldn't help but be stunned for a second.
For no other reason than...
Raelynn was absolutely gorgeous.
She had a slender figure, a flawless complexion, and without a drop of makeup, she was effortlessly breathtaking.
Raelynn was too low-key, blending into the crowd, which was why they hadn't noticed her right away.
"The restaurant is booked. Let's all head over," Sebastian spoke up, his steady voice pulling everyone back to reality.
Only then did Raelynn look at him.
He was terrified she was going to keep embarrassing Seraphina.
Julian clapped his hands. "The cars are ready too. We can talk while we eat."
Raelynn led the NexusMind team into their own company car.
Seraphina frowned, then looked at Professor Roland. "How is the NexusMind team structured? Are these all core members?"
Professor Roland nodded. "Yes, everyone is here."
Displeasure showed on Seraphina's face.
How did Raelynn sneak her way onto a team of this caliber?
What trick did she pull?
Or rather...
What did she trade for the opportunity?
Sebastian had booked The Imperial Garden.
It was Kingsford's top upscale restaurant, running about $500 a plate, requiring reservations a month in advance. Even with money, you couldn't always get a table.
The way everyone looked at Seraphina grew even more envious and grateful.
"We can only dream of a twenty-four-karat perfect boyfriend who's this handsome and rich."
She ended up sitting right across from Sebastian and Seraphina.
Julian witnessed all of this.
He observed Raelynn's expression.
She was actually keeping her composure.
He couldn't quite wrap his head around it.
Why was Raelynn so desperately clinging to this marriage, refusing to divorce?
Since Sebastian was paying the bill, the conversation naturally revolved around his relationship with Seraphina.
As they chatted.
Someone asked out of the blue, "Ms. Ortiz, none of us have boyfriends. What about you? Do you have one? Or are you already married?"
The question came out of nowhere.
Raelynn paused mid-sip.
She raised her eyes.
She noticed that Sebastian, who had deliberately avoided looking at her the entire dinner, had fixed his gaze on her.
His eyes were deep, as dark as ink.
Was he... warning her not to say anything stupid?
Seraphina also pursed her lips.
She felt whoever asked this question had absolutely no tact. Raelynn was a fringe character; what was there to be curious about?
Raelynn set her glass down.
She met the gaze from across the table.
"Hubby-"

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!...
