Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 851
Lily didn't completely understand.
She couldn't fathom what kind of relationship required two people to never speak again.
But her sharp intuition caught something in his tone.
"What if she needs you?"
A subtle shift crossed Sebastian's eyes as he weighed her words.
In the end, he simply patted Lily's head. "I hope she never needs me again. I want the rest of her life to be perfectly smooth sailing."
Lily didn't get adults.
Their world was entirely too complicated.
She couldn't wrap her head around his answer.
But for some reason, even though her father was smiling and exuded this cool detachment, she felt an overwhelming, undeniable sense of sorrow radiating from him.
She couldn't quite put her finger on it.
The hospital room door opened, and Raelynn walked out.
Her eyes were still red.
Rowan had woken up briefly just moments ago.
But when Rowan looked at her, there was no recognition in her eyes. All she had said was, "Who are you?"
She had completely forgotten her own daughter.
But that was okay.
As long as she was awake, there was time to rebuild those memories.
"Mama, don't cry," Lily said, her heart clenching the moment she saw Raelynn's face. She jumped off the bench and wrapped her arms tightly around her mother's legs.
Sebastian remained seated.
He merely turned his head to look at her.
Raelynn gently comforted Lily before turning to him. "Why are you here?"
There was no longer any hostility between them.
She was completely at peace with where they stood.
She treated him like a passing acquaintance.
"She just woke up," he replied smoothly. "The doctors mentioned her brain function needs time to rebuild after such a long coma. She'll experience mood swings, memory loss, and even delirium. She might say things that don't make sense."
Raelynn hadn't even thought that far ahead.
But hearing it out loud made sense.
It was actually a great idea.
"I'll make the arrangements."
"It's getting late. Do you want to grab dinner together?" Seeing her agreement, he glanced down at his watch.
Raelynn couldn't believe his audacity. Yes, they had wiped the slate clean, but that didn't mean they were suddenly on dinner-date terms.
"No need, I've got food waiting at home," she said with a tight smile, keeping up appearances for Lily's sake while shutting him down gracefully.
Her rejection was entirely expected.
Rowan's condition was still volatile, and she couldn't afford to be away for too long.
Even though she wanted to stay by the bed, the doctor had suggested giving Rowan time to process her surroundings alone.
She took Lily's hand. "Say goodbye to... him."
The word 'Dad' refused to leave her throat, so she skipped it entirely.

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!...
