Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 822

It was quite the novelty.

The Croix and Hudson families were actually "collaborating" for once.

Sebastian's lips moved slightly. "Mrs. Hudson, I really should learn from you. If memory serves, you used to act as though you adored Raelynn. Now, you've managed to sell her for a good price."

Cordelia chuckled, unbothered by the remark. "Isn't this the outcome you wanted, Mr. Croix? As for children, they can always have more once they're married. Once Raelynn settles into her new family, she'll eventually come to terms with it."

She played along effortlessly, her smile unwavering. She looked like a socially adept, easygoing woman, but in truth, a woman who held her ground in this industry was anything but soft-hearted.

The Hudson family wanted to break into the semiconductor market, so Cordelia was naturally in a good mood.

Plus, since the Croix family wasn't going to make a fuss about the Hudsons taking Raelynn, there was no need for her to clash with Ian. Letting him have his way was fine.

She smiled, gave a polite nod, and turned to greet other guests.

Leo looked confused. "What were you two talking about?"

Sebastian turned his head, tilting his chin slightly toward a spot upstairs.

When Zella found Raelynn, the bride was sitting in front of the vanity mirror, staring thoughtfully at her phone.

Makeup artists and stylists were still buzzing around her, working on her look.

"It's your big day. Why aren't you smiling?" Zella walked over, crossed her legs, and sat down nearby.

Raelynn snapped out of her daze.

She was a bit surprised to see Zella but immediately asked, "Ms. Davenport, could I borrow your phone for a quick call?"

Zella thought it was odd, but she casually handed over her phone. "Why do you look so weighed down? You look like someone's forcing you into this."

She muttered under her breath.

Raelynn didn't have time to explain.

Zella didn't even have a passcode. Raelynn unlocked it immediately and dialed Chloe's number.

Once again.

The phone was turned off.

Raelynn's expression instantly darkened.

Chloe... was probably in trouble.
