Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 8
She was never one to burn her bridges without a backup plan—she naturally had much better options waiting.
She had a lunch date with Chloe that afternoon.
Chloe had already texted her the address.
It was right around the corner.
As soon as Raelynn walked into the restaurant, Chloe waved her over and slid a fresh cup of tea across the table. "Resignation sorted?"
Raelynn nodded. "Pretty much."
"When you brought up the divorce, how did Sebastian react?" Chloe couldn't help but ask.
After all, with a man wielding an ego that massive, wouldn't his fragile masculinity shatter at the thought of his wife dumping him first?
Raelynn stared at the steam rising from her cup and shook her head. "He didn't care."
He didn't even bother to sit down and discuss the logistics.
Even when she finally reached her breaking point and demanded a divorce, he effortlessly maintained his cold apathy.
Honestly, the male species was a joke. He could neglect you for years, but the second you tried to leave him, he couldn't even give you the time of day.
Chloe ground her teeth in fury. "Is that man's heart made of solid ice?! Seven years! Any normal human being would have some kind of reaction!"
Raelynn didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Her crushing failure, the agonizing realization that her devotion had been stomped into the dirt—she couldn't escape any of it.
Only she fully understood the torment of the last seven years.
Her tears had dried up a long time ago.
She was no longer the pathetic woman begging for scraps of affection from Sebastian just to survive.
Chloe then pressed for the exact reason Raelynn finally pulled the trigger.
Raelynn didn't hold back, recounting the entire ER incident exactly as it happened.
Chloe's face turned completely green. She slammed her hands on the table and stood up. "They're not even trying to hide it?! Does Seraphina have zero shame? Her fiancé just got locked up, and she's already sleeping with his cousin?! And she got knocked up?!"
In all her years of living, she had never seen anything so incredibly vile!
Knowing Chloe was fiery and passionate, her voice had easily carried across the room.
Raelynn immediately reached out to pull her back down.
She still didn't have the full medical picture from last night.
She had only relayed what the young nurse said, giving Chloe a rough summary.
Raelynn knew that was impossible.
Unless she wanted to be blacklisted from the entire country.
The Croix family was notoriously ruthless. Until she had fully secured her own footing, she couldn't afford a total war.
She wasn't stupid enough to risk Lily's safety just for petty revenge.
She decided to completely ignore Julian.

Upstairs.
Julian pushed open the door to the private room, his face dark.
A group of people were already gathered around the elegant table.
At the center sat Sebastian.
He lounged with an untouchable elegance, his mere presence dominating the room. He glanced over as the door opened.
Sitting flush against his side was Seraphina.
She offered Julian a graceful smile. "Who upset you?"

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!...
