Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right

If they annoyed the Nichols, things would not turn out well for them.

Debra reassured them, "Don't worry about it. Just go and demand cash. Act like you don't know its worth. I promise you'll walk away with one billion dollars."

Lauren was still uncertain, but Jenson sensed an opportunity and gripped her hand.

"Alright, we'll do it."Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"Good. Take the ring. We'll meet again tomorrow."

After Debra was gone, Lauren was still hesitant.

"Honey, do you think we can trust Debra?"

"Debra and the Nichols family aren't on the same side. Remember, didn't Juan have an affair recently? I think Debra's looking to get revenge on them. We might as well give it a shot."

"Dad's right," Hester chimed in bitterly. "If we can get one billion dollars, at least all I've suffered won't have been in vain."

With that, they came to an agreement. Early the next morning, they marched up to the Nichols family's house and created a scene at the door.

Melody was woken up by Sophie's urgent knocking.

"What now? Who's here?"

"It's the Vargas. They're causing trouble again."

"What? Why are they here again? Didn't you give them the ring?"

Melody got up from bed, annoyed.

Sophie explained, "They're making a fuss, saying they don't want the ring. They're demanding cash."

"Idiots!" Melody scowled. "That ring is worth far more than cash. Are they out of their minds?"

Debra, who had been quietly listening from nearby, couldn't help but smile to herself. She knew what was going on.

Melody was trying to offer the ring because, quite simply, she didn't have one billion dollars in cash to hand over. It wasn't the conspiracy Debra had told the Vargas about.

But what the Vargas family likely didn't know was that someone as powerful as Melody couldn't easily come up with that kind of money.

Moments later, Melody emerged from her room. When she spotted Debra lingering nearby, she shot her a sharp look. "Didn't you hear the commotion at the door? You're the hostess of the Nichols family. Aren't you going to see what's going on?" "You're right, grandma. But the Vargas family is here for you. I wouldn't know how to handle it."

Debra blinked innocently, and Melody heaved a sigh.

She steeled herself and strode outside, where the Vargas family was already seated on the sofas, looking anything but polite. "We don't want this ring. Hand over the cash," Jenson said, slamming the ring box down onto the coffee table.

Melody narrowed her eyes. "You

need to understand something. This ring is worth more than one billion dollars. With it, you'd never have to worry about money again. Stop making trouble and get out of my house."

Jenson scoffed, crossing his arms, "More than one billion dollars? We don't care. If we don't see the cash today, we're not leaving." Melody's face flushed with anger. This was blatant extortion.

Debra stepped forward, placing a hand on Melody's arm as if to calm her.

"Grandma, don't get worked up. Since they don't want the ring, we can just take it back. One billion dollars is nothing, right?"
