Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223

Debra found Michael’s thought process inscrutable, but she decided to play along.

By evening, she had booked a lavish restaurant, securing a private room to accommodate Michael’s public status.

She found herself seated in the passenger seat of his sports car, the thrill of the ride coursing through her veins.

It was unexpected that Michael, who maintained a daily facade of depth and mystery, was revealing a mischievous side that relished such exhilarating activities.

“Princess, please step out,” Michael announced, opening the car door with a flourish.

Debra had dressed casually without any makeup on. She even donned a mask to suit Michael’s status.

In contrast, Michael seemed relaxed, strolling about and showing no sign of wanting to conceal his identity.

“Michael, you’re a popular celebrity now,” Debra remarked. “Walking around like this, you’re bound to be recognized. Tomorrow’s headline might be ‘Michael dines with a mysterious woman”.”

Michael chuckled. “Creating some news. Isn’t that better?”

It struck Debra then that, since his debut, Michael had been remarkably scandal-free.

“But it shouldn’t involve your boss,” she countered.

“Partner,” he corrected.

“To outsiders, I’m your boss,” she insisted as they entered the restaurant.

The restaurant owner was well-versed in serving their circle, ensuring privacy and discretion.

“Please follow me, this way.” A waiter guided them towards a private room.

Inside the restaurant, Debra removed her mask, only to lock eyes with Shelia as she looked up.

Shelia was wearing a dress Debra recognized from a previous banquet, likely a gift from Juan.
