Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 811
Raelynn's back was rigid as she held Sebastian's gaze.
His usually cold, detached features now harbored an emotion she had never seen before, swirling in the depths of his striking eyes.
She couldn't pinpoint exactly what that emotion was.
It was complex.
So agonizingly complex that just a single glance made her feel as though her heart was being crushed.
"I've said what I needed to say. Whatever tricks you want to play, bring them on."
Raelynn flatly ignored his comment about her giving birth to his daughter.
"You're so guarded against me," Sebastian scoffed softly.
A shiver of pure apprehension ran down Raelynn's spine. She knew all too well how calculating and ruthless he could be. "Isn't this exactly what the Croix family taught me? Everyone wears masks. I had to learn something just to survive."
"What if I insist my daughter returns to her rightful place?" he suddenly asked, his voice deathly quiet.
Raelynn clenched her fists. "Then I don't mind telling you that you don't have the right, nor the chance. I should also congratulate you. Back when you were so blindly in love with Seraphina, I had you sign a Custody Waiver Agreement. You gave her up yourself. No one forced you."
That exact term.
It made the look in Sebastian's eyes freeze over entirely. "What do you mean?"
Raelynn felt a rare, overwhelming wave of vindication. She curled her lips into a sharp smile, relishing the moment. "Did you forget? When I went to your office to have you sign that agreement, you were so cautious. You were going to read it line by line. You would have seen what was hidden on the later pages. But the moment Seraphina twisted her ankle, you threw all caution out the window. Just to rush to her side, you blew me off and signed it without a second thought. What you signed was a Custody Waiver Agreement. You voluntarily severed your legal ties as a father."
She had choked down these secrets for far too long.
So long that she had grown completely numb to the ache.
The agony of the past finally seemed to find a microscopic outlet in this very second.
It was as if a festering wound was finally being sterilized.
The interior of the car plunged into an eerie, suffocating silence.
Instead, his gaze remained inevitably fixed on her retreating silhouette until she disappeared into the distance.
A long time passed.
A heavy, throbbing ache pulsed against his temples, his complexion turning grim. He closed his eyes, tilting his head back to rest against the leather seat. His eyelashes fluttered slightly from the weight of his racing thoughts and the mounting headache, his Adam's apple bobbing in the quiet.
No one knew exactly what was running through his mind.

Raelynn made her way to Professor Alistair Finch's house.
Lily had gotten out of school early today and was playing out in the yard.
Catching sight of Lily's tiny figure, a lump formed in Raelynn's throat. Hot tears finally breached her absolute composure. She walked over, dropping to her knees to pull Lily into a fierce embrace.
She bit down hard on her lip to stifle the sound.

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!...
