Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 845
"Sebastian."
Tristan pressed his lips together, giving him a complex look.
Sebastian didn't look up. He set down the piping hot teacup and gave a faint, chilling smile. "Grandpa, do you actually care about my child, or just the Croix family's gains and losses in this whole mess? Let's drop the act. Today, Raelynn is the cherished daughter of the Yves family, doted on by them all. You played a losing hand seven years ago."
His tone was unhurried.
Yet he was blatantly pointing out that Forrest forcing Raelynn to sign those divorce papers seven years ago was a pathetic joke. Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting here now, watching her rise to power as the true granddaughter of Dr. Hayes and drowning in regret.
Forrest's face darkened. "Sebastian, are you blaming me?"
"No, I think you handled it beautifully," Sebastian replied nonchalantly. "It's for the best that the child isn't in the Croix family. After all, in this environment, whether she'd even survive to adulthood is questionable. As her father, I naturally prefer my only daughter to grow up healthy and safe."
"You!"
Forrest was seething.
How could he miss the underlying venom in Sebastian's words?
Sebastian had never intended to hide it from the Croix family. He had single-handedly orchestrated the entire thing.
And there was no point in hiding it anymore.
The dust had settled.
What good did the Croix family's resentment toward Raelynn do now?
Forrest's grip on his walking cane tightened, and he opened his mouth to speak.
The assistant rushed in. "Chairman, an urgent call for you."
Sebastian blew lightly on his tea leaves, not bothering to look up.
Forrest glanced at the phone; it was Cordelia Hudson.
He shot a look at the impossibly calm Sebastian before frowning. "Answer it."
The call ended.
Cordelia's stance was crystal clear.
War was officially declared between them and the Croix family.
And it was fueled by a towering pile of grievances.
"Investigate. Find out exactly where the leak happened." Forrest wasn't known for his good temper, and right now, his eyes were ruthlessly dark.
The assistant had already received internal intel from the company.
He reported, "A European firm intervened. They swooped in with lightning speed. Since they weren't on our radar of domestic competitors, we had zero defenses in place."
"Europe?" Tristan asked.
"What company?" Forrest, having weathered countless storms, quickly regained his composure. What was done was done; there was no salvaging the Hudson family alliance now. The priority was dealing with this new, lurking threat to the Croix family.

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!...
