Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 737

Clad in an impeccably tailored suit, Sebastian Croix might have been confined to a wheelchair for mobility, but every single person who approached to greet him instinctively bowed their heads in deference.

His chiseled face betrayed no discernible emotion.

His basic manners were flawless.

After exchanging a few polite nods and pleasantries, he finally turned his head.

His gaze was like a laser, locking onto her with predatory precision through the bustling crowd the second he moved.

The distance between them wasn't exactly close.

When Raelynn Ortiz spotted him, she subconsciously furrowed her brow, though she couldn't say she was surprised. Given the scale of The East District Land Auction today, it made perfect sense for Sebastian, a fellow bidder, to make an appearance.

"Raelynn, over here." Ian Hudson, who had been waiting for her, descended from the upper level the moment he saw her. He bypassed the throng of people eager to shake his hand and strode straight toward her.

Raelynn tore her gaze away from Sebastian. "Is it really appropriate for me to be here today?"

Ian handed her a name badge. "Why wouldn't it be? A lot of folks from the medical sector are here today, including those looking to fund new medical facilities. It's a great networking platform. It couldn't hurt for you to mingle and make some connections."

"Alright." Raelynn couldn't quite read Ian's mind.

After all, Sebastian had made his intentions for this plot of land abundantly clear.

He had essentially backed Ian into a corner.

Yet Ian acted as if nothing was amiss.

But...

The fact that Ian was here meant he fully intended to bid. He must have decided not to yield an inch to Sebastian.

Raelynn pushed the thoughts aside.

It wasn't really a shock, anyway.

The Hudson Family was a massive enterprise; they weren't going to let fleeting romantic entanglements dictate their business moves. Besides, her impending marriage to Ian was essentially a partnership. There was no deep emotional bond between them, so she certainly hadn't harbored any naive hopes that he would forfeit such a massive bid just for her sake.

Once inside the main venue, they headed straight for the front row.
