Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 9
Another friend at the table, Leo Flynn, laughed. "Yeah, why the long face?"
Taking his seat, Julian glanced across the table at Seraphina. She was poised, elegant, and always knew how to handle herself in their circle. She was completely flawless. And yet, Raelynn was downstairs dragging her name through the mud!
"Guess who I just saw downstairs? Raelynn."
Hearing this, Sebastian's sharp, handsome features remained entirely unbothered. He tapped his fingers rhythmically against the table, completely disinterested in whatever his wife was up to.
Seraphina casually poured Julian a cup of tea. "Did you two have a fight? She's just a woman, Julian, don't let her get to you."
Seeing Seraphina actually defend Raelynn only highlighted the massive gap in class between the two women.
Julian leaned back, scoffing in disbelief. "You wouldn't believe the garbage she's spewing about you. I didn't realize how vile a jealous woman could get."
He repeated every word he had just heard Chloe yell downstairs.
Sebastian, who had been completely zoned out, suddenly felt his eyes sharpen. A heavy frown crept onto his face.
"Raelynn said that herself?" He looked up, his tone impossible to read.
Seraphina's face instantly fell.
"If Julian heard it with his own ears, it has to be true," she answered softly on his behalf, biting her lip.
Leo Flynn slammed his hand on the table, cursing out loud. "So she's just making up dirty rumors about Seraphina?! Raelynn's a woman herself. No wonder she's such a failure. Seven years of being a pathetic doormat and she's still unloved. Is she that obsessed with tearing other women down?"
He thought for a second and declared, "You can't just let her smear you like this. We need to demand an explanation."
Following Leo's lead.
Seraphina took a deep breath and looked at the silent Sebastian, silently asking for his permission.
Sebastian didn't say a word. He just picked up his phone and stood up to take a call.
He wasn't joining in, but he wasn't stopping them either.
Leo and Julian locked eyes, instantly understanding his stance.
Sebastian had already thrown his hand up, effortlessly blocking the heavy copper pot before it could crash down on Raelynn.
The waiter's face drained of color as he scrambled to grab the pot and apologize profusely.
Raelynn was stunned to run into Sebastian here.
She was just about to say thank you.
Then she saw Seraphina standing right behind Sebastian.
Sebastian's towering frame was perfectly shielding Seraphina, and he looked deeply annoyed by the sudden physical contact with Raelynn.
Treating him like the plague, Raelynn instantly stepped away, breaking free of his embrace.
Her sudden retreat made Sebastian narrow his eyes, shooting her a calculating look.
"Scared of getting burned?" Leo laughed, watching the scene unfold. "I figured you were thick-skinned enough to take a hit, Ms. Ortiz."

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!...
