Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 82
Raelynn looked at him distractedly. "What's wrong?"
Preston frowned. "The party in the hall next door... I think it's a birthday bash for Seraphina Vance's brother."
Raelynn's tense expression hadn't even had time to settle before sheer disbelief flooded her eyes. "Shane?"
She quickly stepped out into the corridor.
The adjacent hall wasn't far. It was, in fact, the exact premium banquet hall she had originally booked—the one the hotel had begged her to give up.
Standing right at the entrance was a welcome sign plastered with a photo of Shane Vance. They were throwing him a birthday party.
By the door, Silas Vance and Blanche were greeting guests.
When Silas saw Raelynn, he didn't look surprised in the slightest. He walked over with a wide, familiar smile, acting as if they hadn't been estranged for over a decade. "Lynnie! What a coincidence. I'm here celebrating your brother's birthday. Why don't we merge the two parties into one big hall?"
Raelynn's eyes were freezing. "Are we close enough for that?"
They hadn't spoken in over ten years, yet Silas was still as painfully fake as ever.
Silas frowned, then let out a heavy sigh. "Lynnie, I'm just looking out for you. Sebastian is accompanying Sera to an interview right now, but they'll be arriving here together shortly. Today is Shane's birthday too. Surely your grandfather, at his advanced age, wouldn't want to steal the spotlight from a child. Why don't you all come over, have some food, blow out some candles, and share in our joy?"
Share in their joy?
They were hosting their own private celebration, yet Silas was framing it as if they needed his charity.
Raelynn's chest rose and fell as her glare turned sharp as daggers.
"You seem incredibly proud of your stepdaughter for being a homewrecker, Mr. Vance."
It was glaringly obvious. Silas had known all along that she had married Sebastian Croix, and he was fully aware that Seraphina was hooking up with him. Yet, he hadn't reached out to his own biological daughter once. Instead, he had been secretly thrilled that his stepdaughter was stealing Raelynn's husband!
Silas's expression soured. He looked at her with profound disappointment. "Lynnie, how can you be so vicious? She is your sister."
Seeing her grandfather sitting in his wheelchair, chatting amiably with Preston, she swallowed back the tears threatening to spill over.
Silas and Blanche were right next door. Sebastian was with Seraphina doing an interview today, so he absolutely knew the Vance family was hosting an event at this exact hotel.
Yet, he hadn't given her a single word of warning. She had explicitly given him the hotel address, and he had deliberately let her and her grandfather walk right into this humiliating ambush!
Preston noticed her distress immediately. He stood up, his lips pressed in a tight line. "Are you okay?"
Raelynn quickly tilted her head back, let out a shaky breath, and forced a smile. "I'm fine. But I don't think we can eat here today. We need to go somewhere else."
The room next door was a ticking time bomb. She refused to let them ruin her grandfather's big day or his good mood.
As for Sebastian...
She didn't care if he showed up anymore. She had no desire to watch him act like a pro at two-timing, bouncing between two different parties.

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!...
