Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 862
What kind of monstrously vile heart could pull off something like that?!
"My poor Jo-Jo..." Dr. Hayes gasped for air, tears flooding her clouded eyes. She raised her cane and brought it crashing down onto Quentin's back, screaming hysterically. "You tore your marriage apart over this?! You turned on Lydia and chose to believe an outsider?!"
The family hadn't known the full extent of the marital collapse.
Quentin had always refused to speak of it.
And Lydia had possessed far too much pride. Wrongly accused, she absolutely refused to beg for the trust of a husband who doubted her.
Quentin absorbed the heavy blows without flinching.
Even after all these decades, every nuance of Lydia's expression from that night was branded into his mind.
During their screaming match, Lydia had been crying, but her face had been stone-cold. She had stared at him with venomous mockery and said, "She threw herself down those stairs on purpose. Do you believe me?"
And how had he responded?
He had looked at her with profound disappointment and heartbreak. "Jo-Jo, your jealousy has completely blinded you. You've resorted to destroying other people's lives. Sylvia lost her baby. She might never be able to conceive again. She's so devastated she tried to kill herself, and you're still refusing to admit what you did?"
At that moment.
Lydia had looked at him with pure hatred.
A soul-crushing, agonizing hatred. But she had simply smiled.
And never offered another word of explanation.
She disappeared shortly after.
He had spent months looking for her like a madman.
The next piece of news he received.
Was that Lydia had driven her car into a lake and died.
He had lost his wife.
His beloved wife.
It had plunged him into a depression that lasted for years.
"Jo-Jo was right all along, wasn't she? You threw yourself down those stairs. She never laid a finger on you."
During that harrowing incident where two lives were supposedly on the line, he had been blinded by rage. He hadn't been defending Sylvia; he had been terrified that his proud, radiant wife was sinking into dark, extreme paranoia. He hadn't wanted Lydia to drown in bitterness, so he had lashed out with the cruelest words possible to snap her out of it.
But he never could have imagined.
That the blade he plunged into her heart was actually forged from his own lack of faith in her.
"Quentin..." Sylvia's delicate face went stark white. She shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. "No, it's a misunderstanding. I never wanted to lie to you! I didn't even know Sierra was alive until much later..."
She wept uncontrollably, consumed by genuine terror.
The murderous look in Quentin's eyes shattered her resolve. The paralyzing fear of losing him—of losing everything she had built—short-circuited her normally calculating brain.
If this disaster with Sierra hadn't happened out of nowhere.
The truth of the past would have remained buried forever.
Sebastian's casual, lethal deduction had signed her death warrant.

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!...
