Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 889

What Tristan said was entirely factual.

A profound stillness settled over Sebastian's features, a silent tempest churning briefly beneath the surface. He kept his back to Tristan, showing none of the devastation his cousin had expected.

"You're wrong."

His voice cut through the biting wind, sounding even colder than the night air.

"It wasn't your existence that drove Raelynn and me to this point. You think far too highly of yourself."

Tristan's chest heaved violently at those words, his eyes blazing red—whether from sheer frustration or the agonizing sting of unacknowledged regret, it was hard to tell.

But Sebastian was already done wasting his breath.

He didn't even bother questioning the soul-crushing "truth" Tristan had just dumped on him.

Tristan watched Sebastian walk away, eventually collapsing onto a bench in the courtyard.

He had never wanted to admit how desperately jealous he was of Sebastian. He had truly believed that Raelynn loved him back then. He had silently allowed everything to happen, even plotting out exactly what to do if she finally confessed to him.

His marriage had to be a perfect alliance between powerful families.

He needed a wife who could elevate his status.

Yet he still harbored selfish desires. He genuinely cared for Raelynn. He knew they couldn't have a future, yet part of him secretly hoped for something he refused to openly acknowledge.

Until.

Until he saw that pendant in Raelynn's possession.

He instantly recognized it as Sebastian's.

She treated it like her most prized treasure.

The man she loved was Sebastian, not him.

In that moment, the delicate balance inside him shattered. Everything he had believed, mixed with his undeniable feelings for her, twisted into unspeakable humiliation. He had been completely delusional. Raelynn had never been interested in him.

He was fully aware of what his grandmother was orchestrating on his behalf.

At the time, he hated Raelynn for it.

Why, of all people, did she have to love Sebastian?

He resented her for not choosing him, and he hated Sebastian for never giving the rest of the family a chance to breathe.

Tristan leaned forward. Tears welled in his eyes, but he forced a bitter sneer. "I have never regretted anything."

Raelynn should be the one regretting it.

And as for Sebastian claiming their divorce had nothing to do with him? He didn't buy it for a second.

Sebastian absolutely cared.

He had definitely been the thorn in Sebastian's side all along.

He had beaten Sebastian.

He had to have.

Raelynn was completely oblivious to the chaos unfolding at the Croix estate.

It was just after New Year's, and the holiday spirit still lingered in the air.

She brought Arthur Winslow and Rowan Ortiz to the Yves residence, where the large, blended family shared a meal together.

Of course.
