Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 573

Chapter 573 

The night was cloaked in shadows. Ever since word spread that Drake had come to Seamar City, the city’s elite had been clamoring for an invitation. 

Tonight, the Lowe Group was throwing an exclusive party at a private villa. 

Even though Debra had lived in Seamar City for years, she had never seen this building before. It was as if it had materialized overnight. Suspicion gnawed at her, but she pushed it aside for now. There were more pressing matters to consider. 

The guests included their business partners as well as Seamar City’s most powerful and influential. As Debra arrived, she was struck by the sight of famous actresses and red–carpet royalty milling about the grand entrance. 

These weren’t just any celebrities; they were top–tier stars with millions of followers. 

Debra stepped out of the car, her face partially obscured by the mask the host had provided. She wore an understated gown. Even so, her presence drew attention. 

At events like this, masks were merely a formality. Most guests knew each other well enough to recognize each other anyway. 

Debra was the odd one out. No one recognized her, and it piqued their curiosity. Then again, no one doubted her identity since everyone there was either noble or rich. 

“Invitation?” the security guard at the door asked 

Despite his frosty tone, no one seemed to mind. Every quest handed over their invitations without complaint, bowing their heads slightly as if they were in the presence of royalty. 

When Debra stepped up, the guard gave her an appraising look that made her skin crawl. She forced herself to act like she didn’t notice. 

“Your invitation,” he demanded. 

She handed it over, and when he saw it was from the Potter Group, his demeanor shifted slightly, becoming more respectful. “You may enter.” 

Debra gave a curt nod and stepped inside. 

The room was packed, mostly with the city’s business elites and a surprising number of female celebrities. She noticed right away that there were hardly any male stars in attendance. The atmosphere was thick with whispers and veiled glances as the guests mingled. 

Remembering Andrew’s advice to keep a low profile, Debra grabbed a glass of juice from a passing waitress and moved toward a quiet corner. She kept her eyes on the entrance, scanning each new arrival. 

She saw plenty of familiar faces, such as the Chandler family, one of the Nichols Group’s partners, real estate moguls like the Patrick family, as well as industry leaders like the Smith family from the construction world and the Diaz family from electronics.
