Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 757

Matilda's sudden display of maternal warmth sent an icy chill down Raelynn's spine.

Their falling out had been incredibly ugly.

And the matriarch knew she had secretly given birth to a daughter.

So why the act?

Her mind raced as she stepped further into the room. That was when she noticed a woman sitting with her back to the door. Her posture was flawless and incredibly elegant.

It was the kind of poise ordinary people simply didn't possess.

It could only be cultivated by years of elite grooming.

As the matriarch of the Croix family, Matilda was a master of keeping up appearances. Looking like the picture of grandmotherly affection, she kept her smile fixed and beckoned Raelynn over. "Come, Raelynn, let me introduce you to Ms. Davenport."

Raelynn discreetly tightened her jaw.

As she walked around the seating area, she finally locked eyes with the stranger.

The woman had her wavy hair styled in a flawless half-updo, and her tailored cream coat screamed old money. She offered a polite smile, but her eyes held a cool, assessing gaze. It was an unmistakable arrogance, born of a lifetime of absolute privilege.

With just one glance, Raelynn knew this Ms. Davenport was a heavy hitter.

Zella Davenport gave Raelynn a subtle once-over before nodding. "Hello. I'm Zella Davenport. I'm visiting the Croix family today. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Her manners were impeccable.

Raelynn found the last name unfamiliar.

It didn't sound like a prominent family from Kingsford.

Matilda finally chimed in. "The Davenports of Hong Kong. Ms. Davenport is the eldest daughter of the family. She's visiting Kingsford to meet Sebastian and get to know him better."

It hit Raelynn instantly.

Zella Davenport was here on a blind date with Sebastian.

Had Matilda blackmailed her into coming here just to force her to see the kind of high-society heiress Sebastian actually belonged with?
