The next day, Lory began preparing her disguise to enter the Grand Ivory Club. She had visited places like this before, though always in disguise. Back then, she had been too young to enter openly, so slipping in unnoticed had been the only option.
Over time, she had learned the rules of such places well. What to do, and what not to do, and most importantly, how not to attract attention.
Thus, the first thing she adjusted was her appearance. She couldn't afford to look too striking. The most basic rule of disguise was simple: stay forgettable.
That was why many beautiful agents deliberately altered their appearance to look ordinary. Beauty drew attention, and attention meant people remembered your face. Unless the mission required seducing a target, attractiveness was often more of a liability than an advantage.
Fortunately, Lory's purpose tonight was only to meet Abigail Rose quietly. There was no reason for her to stand out.
