Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 816
Cordelia asked, "So you're saying we bypass Raelynn entirely and just legally transfer Lily back to the Croix family?"
"Let's handle it exactly like that."
Cordelia sighed, feigning reluctance. "I suppose the Hudsons will have to play the villains here out of necessity."
She then probed, "And regarding the wedding? What are your thoughts on that?"
Forrest replied sharply, "That is Hudson family business. You don't need to consult me."
Cordelia fully understood the underlying message.
The negotiations continued behind the closed doors.
But out in the hall, Raelynn felt an icy chill invade every fiber of her being.
The biting winter snow outside seemed to have frozen directly into her bloodstream.
The Hudsons...
Once again, they had completely discarded her.
They had actually used her daughter as a bargaining chip to secure a multi-million-dollar corporate sector from the Croix family.
They had sacrificed her and Lily without a second of hesitation.
Throughout the entire process, not a single person had even considered consulting the child's biological mother. They had brazenly cut her out of the equation, negotiated the terms, and sealed the deal.
Raelynn's entire body went rigid.
Her eyes burned, so dry she could barely blink.
Her breathing grew erratic, a blinding rush of betrayal sending a searing heat through her veins until her skin prickled with pain.
Until.
Someone approached from behind, wrapping a firm hand around her wrist, pulling her stiff, numb body away from the door and leading her down the hall.
Raelynn felt like a ghost.
She had spent so long fighting tooth and nail for Lily's custody. She had nothing in this world—Lily was the only thing that truly belonged to her. For that, she had been willing to risk absolutely everything, even making desperate, reckless choices.
Sebastian stood as still as a statue. He merely lowered his gaze, letting her use him as a punching bag as tears streamed down her face.
He didn't flinch. He didn't block her. He showed no annoyance.
He just watched her in silence.
Until Raelynn was completely exhausted. Her red-rimmed eyes locked onto his, ignoring the tears still tracking down her cheeks. "If you dare try to fight me for Lily, I'll put my life on the line and drag you straight to hell."
Sebastian looked at the raw hatred blazing in her eyes. He reached up, the cool pad of his thumb gently wiping a tear from her cheek. "Good. You better keep your word."
-
Raelynn wasn't going to barge in and confront the two families head-on.
She knew it was useless.
She didn't even want to waste another second arguing with Sebastian—he was cut from the same ruthless cloth as his family.
Having vented the worst of her panic, she turned and marched away without looking back. She pulled out her phone, called Ian, and drove straight to Zenith Holdings.

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!...
