Louissa was momentarily troubled by her thoughts. "Is that even possible? He used to bring Amari to those gatherings to present her as his wife in front of everyone—it helped strengthen his business plans. So how would he ever bring me to the party now?" Louissa knows that they are divorcing but the people around them doesn't know yet. It may affect the image that Sebastian build if there's an issue arises.

She hadn't even received the basic acknowledgment that Amari once had. She needs to plan this carefully and bring that woman down before it can affect her future plans with Sebastian.
