Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 843
His tone was entirely flat.
But Raelynn clearly caught the blatant mockery.
She tried to pull her hand from his grip.
Instinctively, Sebastian's hold tightened, his warm palm wrapping around hers. But after just a few seconds, he let go of his own accord. "Sylvia and Sierra will be sent away by the Yves family. With this done, some of your knots with them should be untangled. Lily staying with you in the Yves family is the best possible outcome."
Raelynn could still feel his lingering warmth on the back of her hand.
She curled her fingers into a fist. "Aren't you going to tell me what your deal is?"
She wasn't asking about the massive spectacle he made for Sierra, nor his refusal to remarry. She was asking when he had found out for sure, and about his plans for Lily's arrangement. She had been on guard against him this entire time.
Yet, in the very end.
Sebastian had let go.
He hadn't tried to fight her for the child.
In fact, he had secretly arranged everything, severing the Croix family's ambitions and leaving the Hudson family in an awkward position where they could no longer interfere.
He even...
Didn't care what surname the child took.
"You didn't want the child returning to the Croix family, and neither did I. We both know they don't value human connection; it's no environment for a child to grow up in. Lily is my daughter. That blood connection can't be changed. No matter her last name, she is still my daughter."
Sebastian looked at her. "The child I share with you is proof of my existence."
Raelynn frowned. "Sebastian, you're certainly overflowing with confidence."
So confident that he didn't seem to care about the details.
He didn't deny it.
"If you're asking how I confirmed our blood tie," Sebastian slipped one hand into his pocket, "the process hardly matters at this point."
Only the result mattered.
Raelynn looked up. "Did you know when you jumped off the building to save her?"
Sebastian met her gaze.
He remained silent for a long time.
After today.
It was time to turn the page.
He had genuinely secured Lily's custody for her. She was the most important person in her life. She wasn't unreasonable enough to blur the lines of gratitude and hatred.
They were.
Even.
Raelynn looked at him, her heart calm and open. "From now on, we owe each other nothing. The love and the hate are both gone. If we bump into each other, we'll just say a normal hello. If you want to see Lily, you'll have to ask for her opinion. I won't interfere. But outside of that, we're strangers."
They had been through too much.
Life was far too long.
She had wasted too much of her love and hate on him.
It was finally time to live her own life.
Now that Lily was officially a child of the Yves family, no one could ever take her away.

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!...
