Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 753

Raelynn never expected to learn Sebastian's stance through Sierra.

Even though she knew Sebastian had no interest in her future romantic life, having last night's events laid bare like this still made her uncomfortable.

"Yeah, for sure," Raelynn replied. She couldn't exactly fault Sierra; the younger woman's eyes shone with absolute sincerity, genuinely congratulating her on a beautiful future.

Sierra linked her arm through Raelynn's, sighing thoughtfully. "I know what kind of man Ian is. He doesn't play games, he respects boundaries, and he's exactly the type who gives his partner complete security."

Raelynn didn't deny it.

Ian was indeed a man of principle.

Having known him for years, she had never heard of him entertaining any other women. His life revolved almost entirely around work.

"You know him well?"

Raelynn asked.

Sierra nodded, then quickly shook her head. "Our families are so close, and we were almost related by marriage at one point. We always see each other around the holidays. You just pick up on these things, and the older generation never stops singing his praises."

That made sense.

During the years Raelynn was away, the two families had naturally maintained tight ties, bound together by mutual business interests.

But this whole bidding situation...

Raelynn drifted into deep thought.

"Professor Ortiz?" Sierra tilted her head, noticing her distraction. "Thinking about Ian?"

Raelynn opened her mouth to reply, but her phone started ringing.

It was Ian.

Ever since the Hudson family's bid became public knowledge, she could easily guess exactly what he was calling to say.

Sierra glanced at her screen.

Her gaze lingered on the caller ID for a long moment before she asked, "Why aren't you answering? I thought you two would have spent last night bonding. Shouldn't you be in the honeymoon phase right now?"

Sensing some unspoken tension between them.

The two of them turned around.

Cordelia Hudson had just stepped out of her car. She watched Raelynn and Sierra from a distance, her expression gentle.

Seeing Cordelia, Sierra immediately straightened up and offered a polite greeting. "Hello, Mrs. Hudson."

Cordelia acknowledged Sierra. She had a fairly deep impression of the girl; the Yves family wasn't large, and with more sons than daughters, Sierra was the only prominent female heir aside from their long-lost daughter.

Having seen her a few times over the years, Cordelia remembered her as frail and often sick, but certainly not naive. At the very least, she was sharp and well-mannered.

Cordelia offered a polite nod.

Raelynn hadn't expected Cordelia to be the first one to seek her out.

She recalled how intensely Garrett Gallagher had tried to push them together the night before. The Gallagher family placed immense importance on Ian's marriage, and Cordelia was likely the one pulling the strings.

"Did you need to speak with me?" Raelynn asked.

Cordelia then glanced at Sierra, who was still hovering nearby. "I was hoping to have a private word with Raelynn. Would you mind giving us a moment, Ms. Yves?"
