Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 895

Sebastian lowered his gaze to meet Raelynn's trembling eyes. He didn't speak. He offered no excuses. He simply turned his attention back to Cordelia.

His gaze swept over the entire crowd.

With so many witnesses present.

His voice was absolute ice. "Mrs. Hudson, when Raelynn nearly fell to her death off that cliff, I was the one who saved her. I carried her to the hospital for treatment, and you stood right there and watched me tend to my injured arm. You knew exactly who saved her, yet you stole the credit. You repeatedly manipulated and bled Raelynn dry for your own use. Is this the esteemed standard of the Hudson matriarch?"

His tone was perfectly level, yet every word landed like a physical blow.

It echoed clearly into everyone's ears.

He made damn sure everyone knew the truth: Raelynn didn't owe the Hudsons a single cent. It was the Hudsons who were greedy and deceptive.

Cordelia had never anticipated Raelynn would bring up the cliff incident while publicly tearing into her, and by sheer terrible luck, Sebastian had heard every word.

She remembered that day perfectly. She had watched a pale, battered Sebastian carry Raelynn into the emergency room.

She had seen right through them back then.

The damage between Sebastian and Raelynn was catastrophic. Their toxic marriage had left them so scarred they refused to be honest with each other. So, she took a gamble.

Businessmen always operated this way, after all.

Bold risks yielded massive rewards.

And it had worked flawlessly.

By removing Sebastian from the narrative, she ensured their relationship remained shattered. He would never claim credit, and Raelynn would never believe he would go to such lengths for her. Why shouldn't she use that blind spot to control the girl?

But now.

Sebastian was publicly severing those strings.

He was absolving Raelynn of the 'ungrateful' label the public had stamped on her.

Leaving Cordelia exposed as the true villain.

Cordelia's face twisted in sheer humiliation.

Today had already been a disaster. The Hudsons had lost the massive East District Land Auction they were absolutely certain they would win.

He had nearly lost his own life pulling her back from the edge.

And he had never said a single word.

Her voice was incredibly soft.

Yet it hit Sebastian's chest like a boulder. His eyes flickered with raw vulnerability. His Adam's apple bobbed as he slowly looked down.

He met Raelynn's gaze. She was smiling, but it wasn't a happy smile.

He didn't even have to guess what she was thinking, or what she was mocking him for.

"You really didn't need to keep it from me. I would have repaid you for saving my life. You had absolutely no reason to worry that I'd catch feelings again and cling to you."

That was the only reason.

The reason Sebastian knew the truth but swallowed it whole.

He refused to tell her he had risked his life to save her because he was terrified she would waver. He was afraid she would delusionally assume he still cared, and that she would foolishly believe they still had a chance.
