Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 680

And yet, he still had the nerve to attend?

Raelynn couldn't make sense of it, her brows pulling into a tight frown.

Leo was the first to speak. "Raelynn, you look gorgeous today."

As he spoke, he shot a glance at Sebastian.

Sebastian's expression was freezing cold, showing absolutely no intention of speaking.

Raelynn had no desire to play nice. She ignored Leo entirely, turning on her heel to head inside.

Julian hurried over from behind.

"Raelynn!" he called out.

His gaze was practically burning a hole through her.

Raelynn looked back.

She was immediately hit by the sheer volume of unspoken words and complex emotions swirling in Julian's eyes. She knew exactly what was on his mind.

The Imperial Green Peace Amulet...

Her connection to the Yves family...

It was obvious Julian had connected the dots.

Did the rest of the Yves family know, too?

But she wasn't ready to accept it. The cruel way Julian had treated her in the past made it impossible for her to offer him any warmth. Without a word, she turned away.

"Rae..."

Julian opened his mouth, but his hand fell uselessly to his side in pure defeat.

The agonizing regret clawed at his chest. If he had known then what he knew now, he never would have been so vile to her.

"What's wrong with you, Julian?" Leo asked, utterly baffled by the tragic, lovelorn expression on Julian's face. It was honestly creeping him out.

Julian ignored Leo.

Instead, he shot a dark, complicated glare at Sebastian. "I can't take back the things I did, but you..."

"Sebastian, if her identity is confirmed, don't blame me when I turn my back on you."

Every time Julian closed his eyes, he was haunted by the pain Raelynn had endured.

"Station men at every entrance," his voice was icy. "Do not let anyone in who isn't supposed to be here. Keep a close eye out for Seraphina. Desperate people resort to extreme measures."

The Hudson family was throwing this party with immense fanfare.

The press was out in full force, though they were kept strictly outside to protect Lily.

It wouldn't be surprising if Seraphina caught wind of it.

It was always better to be safe than sorry.

After hanging up.

He noted that the Hudson family hadn't seemed to notice his men blending into the perimeter.

As he turned to head further inside.

He passed a concealed door.

The sound of voices made him stop, and he glanced through the crack.

Inside was an ocean of red roses. The sheer volume of flowers was staggering. Ian stood in the center of it all. "Bring the flowers out right after the cake is cut. My daughter will deliver the ring, and we'll surprise her mother with the official proposal."
