Goodbye, My Love
Chapter 1085

Unexpectedly, the staff was not convinced and firmly replied,

"Apologies, Miss. Tonight's event is strictly private. You cannot enter without an invitation."

Frustration building within her, Paige stomped her foot in annoyance, but mindful not to draw Loraine's attention, she bit her lip and stepped aside.

Out of nowhere, Paige spotted a plump elderly man making his way towards her, tenderly holding a woman in his arms

Paige straightened herself, tugged her dress down to her shoulders and sauntered towards them, hips swaying.

Meanwhile, inside the ballroom, Lights sparkled brilliantly. Masked men and women clustered on the dance floor, seeking potential dance partners and admirers without a care.

Loraine donned the voice changer provided by the organizers and positioned herself at the entrance of the private room to observe.

Only upon her arrival did Loraine realize that the partners for the ball were not predetermined. Instead, they were drawn to each other based on their individual charm and dancing ability, prompting spontaneous invitations

Those who secured an invite would receive a brooch from their partner and the most sought-after duo would be declared king and queen of the evening.

Then, the dance floor's focal point burst into vibrant motion. A woman, bold in her revealing dress and peacock mask, started swaying seductively. She swiftly became the center of attention, captivating the gazes of many who eagerly prepared to approach her

Yet, the peacock-masked woman beat them to the chase, striding up to the most refined gentleman present, his face hidden behind a golden knight's mask. With a drink in hand, the man spun around and moved off to a corner, the audience's gaze trailing him.

The figure in the corner took everyone's breath away

She was a night-blooming rose, radiant yet distant, exuding a chilling elegance. Her fox mask accentuated her captivating eyes, eliciting a desire in onlookers to bow in reverence before her enchanting presence. "Here you are, Lorrie," said the man in the knight's mask, handing her a drink.

The voice was distorted by a voice modifier, but Loraine knew it belonged to Cayson. She accepted the drink reluctantly, "Thanks Cayson but I'm not parched. Perhaps you should offer it to Jennie."

Not far away, Paige, under her peacock mask, witnessed the exchange and gnashed her teeth in fury. Despite her captivating performance, all eyes were drawn to a woman who remained still. Envy surged within her She'd charmed an older man to exchange his date and secure an entrance to the ball. She had discarded him as soon as she entered; she wouldn't let anyone else steal her spotlight!

Recognizing Loraine's evening dress fueled Paige's animosity.

It was Loraine again!

With a determined grimace, Paige exited the dance floor, swiped a drink from a waiter and marched towards Loraine.

Meanwhile, Loraine politely declined Cayson, relieved to see him head towards Jennie with the drink. She was unaware of the incoming threat.

The peacock-masked woman surreptitiously neared Loraine. Just a few steps from her target, she feigned a stumble and an exaggerated yelp. The wine in her glass tipped precariously towards Loraine.
