Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 890

Quentin and the others were noticeably absent.

Julian casually mentioned to her, "He's not doing so great. Locked himself in and drank until he had to be rushed to the hospital. The second he woke up, he booked a flight out of the country. That mother and daughter... he's dealing with them personally. I know how he operates. He won't leave them a way out this time."

Raelynn stayed silent.

They had brought it upon themselves. The regret and pathetic misery of some people didn't erase the wrong they had done.

No matter how much agony or rage Quentin felt.

It was a bitter pill he had crafted with his own hands.

It was just a poisoned blade that had taken twenty years to strike.

"Have you heard... about the Croix family?" Julian asked, expertly shelling pine nuts and placing the kernels onto a small plate next to her hand, pampering her without even realizing it.

Raelynn glanced over at him. "If it's just idle gossip, feel free to share."

Julian clicked his tongue. "Honestly, Lynnie, seeing you let it all go so easily makes me really happy."

Leaning in, he lowered his voice. "Sebastian's dad got arrested. Insider word says the charges are massive. It's going to drag down a bunch of top execs at headquarters. This is shaking the very foundation of the company. Next to the Chairman and Sebastian, Cyrus held the most power. Ripping him out by the roots is a devastating blow to the family."

"The Croix family is trying to suppress the news, but the Hudsons aren't going to let that happen. The bad blood is already there. They're just going to kick them while they're down, pouring gasoline everywhere to make sure the fire burns hot. Prepare yourself for some jaw-dropping headlines over the next few days."

A direct clash between two titans.

The atmosphere in the business world was practically suffocating.

After all, the silent animosity had grown impossibly deep.

"Cyrus?" Raelynn had never particularly liked her former father-in-law. Even though they hadn't interacted much, she had seen and heard plenty over the years.

The man had married Sebastian's aunt before Sebastian's mother was even cold in her grave.

He was hardly a saint.

Furthermore.

He had constantly found himself at odds with Sebastian's corporate strategies, engaging in endless power struggles.

"Word is, his downfall has Sebastian's fingerprints all over it." Julian's expression grew complicated.

Raelynn felt entirely relaxed these days. The Yves household was safe from hidden threats, and surrounded by people who adored Lily, she had nothing to worry about.

As she prepared to leave.

The butler hurried over from outside, holding an express delivery package.

Spotting her, he smiled and held it out. "Miss, a package arrived for you. Would you like to open it?"

"For me?"

Raelynn paused in confusion, taking it from him to inspect the label.

The return address was the Croix Holdings headquarters.

It was from Sebastian.

Raelynn brushed her thumb across the label and nodded. "Alright, I've got it."

She began opening the envelope as she walked out.
