Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 841
Quentin's expression remained dark as he watched Raelynn walk away.
Suddenly, only the three of them were left in the hall.
Sierra couldn't snap out of her daze for a long time.
She never could have imagined that today, which was supposed to end with Raelynn's wedding being canceled, her being rejected, and drowning in public scorn, would violently pivot to ruin her own life instead.
Those baseless accusations were somehow imbued with an undeniable, invisible power that forced everyone to believe them.
"Quentin, this is all just speculation. Mr. Croix is only retaliating because Sierra accidentally ruined his engagement with Ms. Davenport. You know what kind of character Sierra has."
Sylvia's expression was a bit stiff, but she quickly smoothed it out, softening her voice as she walked to Quentin's side.
She didn't cry or throw a tantrum.
Nor did she demand Quentin do anything.
Sierra finally snapped back to reality, her eyes red. "Dad, I grew up hearing you talk about Raelynn, wishing she would come home. I understand how you feel. I've always hoped for this day too. Mr. Croix is just an outsider making empty claims. Are you really going to doubt me too?"
Quentin's face was rigid.
"I was too busy with work and neglected your upbringing." His tone was freezing. "The Yves family never taught a well-bred lady to go knocking on her brother-in-law's door, trying to twist the facts and force her former brother-in-law to take responsibility for her innocence."
Sierra shook her head, crying. "Dad, I was just so terrified. With so many people watching, even if nothing happened, people would still talk. I'm a girl. Others might not care about my reputation, but I have to."
"Enough!"
Quentin hadn't expected Sierra to still be defending her actions.
Disappointment and heavy sorrow flashed through his eyes. "Whether you did those things or not, the Yves family can no longer tolerate you. Raelynn is coming home, and I won't allow anyone to harbor ulterior motives against her."
Quentin turned to look at Sylvia.
Stunned disbelief flashed in Sylvia's eyes.
But Quentin didn't give her a chance to speak.
He walked straight out the door.
Sylvia's expression shifted drastically. A wave of unprecedented panic and insecurity washed over her, and without a second thought, she raised her hand and delivered a brutal slap across Sierra's face.
Though usually frail, she struck with shocking force.
Sierra was knocked to the floor.
Yet, she seemed entirely used to it.
Sylvia stared down at her, her usually gentle voice growing hoarse and piercing. "What kind of idiotic stunt did you pull? Who do you think you are, recklessly provoking a man like Sebastian Croix? What made you think you could play games with him?"

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!...
