Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 775
His words made Raelynn's mind completely blank for a second.
She snapped her head up in shock.
Sebastian watched every micro-expression on her face, his tone remaining infuriatingly steady. "The Hudson family waters are deeper than you realize. If you're not absolutely certain you can rely on him, you need to secure your daughter's legal guardianship first. Take her out of the equation before you make any other moves. That way, you won't end up losing everything."
Raelynn's breathing grew erratic.
Her chest heaved. "Who are you to say something like this to me?"
"Seven years ago." Sebastian's voice slowed down a fraction. "The divorce agreement you signed proved you believed our marriage would eventually end. Under those circumstances... even if you had gotten pregnant with my child, wouldn't you have hidden it out of fear that you wouldn't be able to take the baby with you?"
He phrased it as a question.
But Raelynn heard the absolute, terrifying certainty beneath it.
Her fingers turned to ice, and she had to dig her nails into her palms just to maintain a grip on her sanity. "What are you getting at?"
"I've always felt that taking your word for it wasn't enough," he murmured, his eyes dropping slightly. "Lily was born during our marriage. Regardless of what's going on between you and Ian, it's perfectly reasonable for me to have my suspicions. Even if Lily is my daughter, I wouldn't find it impossible."
"You..."
Raelynn's pupils constricted.
His terrifying intellect and sharp instincts sent a wave of sheer panic washing over her.
She fought back instinctively. "Sebastian, you are out of your mind!"
"Then consider me out of my mind." He reached out, his hand gripping her trembling shoulder. "Sunny, what are you so afraid of?"
In that instant, she understood.
Once a man like Sebastian locked onto something, it was nearly impossible to escape his grasp. No matter what she said now, he wouldn't listen.
She clenched her fists tightly, forcing herself to meet his dark, predatory gaze, and let out a sudden, cold laugh.
"Mr. Croix, listen to me very carefully. My daughter's last name is Hudson. Not Croix!"
Sebastian didn't look away, holding her gaze firmly. "Raelynn, stop throwing a tantrum with me."
Raelynn's lips curled into a bitter smile. "I'm not throwing a tantrum. I simply don't have any feelings left for you. Forget tantrums—even if you laid down your life to apologize to me, I wouldn't blink an eye. Sebastian, whether you live or die has nothing to do with me. I wouldn't waste a single emotion on you!"
Sebastian's expression didn't change, but his gaze turned somber.
Just then, voices drifted in from the hallway.
"Raelynn?"
Ian was back.
Raelynn hated this situation.
Having Sebastian here was entirely inappropriate.
But before she could react, Sebastian had already brushed past her and opened the door.

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!...
