Joe hesitated, and Debra quickly reassured him, “Don’t worry. I'm just going to have a simple conversation with
them. It won't drag your boss into anything.”
Joe bowed his head. “Yes, ma'am.”
The Vargas family, basking in the glow of the newly signed contract in their hands, hadn't anticipated Debra’s
arrival. When the maid announced her presence, the mood in the house shifted immediately.
Jenson frowned deeply. “What's she doing here?”
Lauren Vargas chimed in, “Maybe we should just send her away. She's Juan's wife after all. She's probably here
to speak on behalf of the Nichols family.”
Jenson nodded in agreement. “Yeah. Let's get rid of her.”

But Hester interrupted, “Maybe we should let her in.”
Lauren turned on her, shocked. “Don’t be foolish. Don’t you realize why she’s here? She’s probably going to
plead on behalf of the Nichols family.”
Hester shook her head, “No, that’s not true. Debra remindedto demand that contract in the first place.
Without her advice, we wouldn't have had the leverage to negotiate with the Nichols. Maybe she’s here to help
us again.”
Jenson’s expression softened. “Alright, send her in. I'm curious to know what she is up to.”
The housekeeper quickly brought Debra into the room. As she entered, Jenson put on a cold, distant air. “Our
family is a small and humble household. It's quite something for you to visit, Mrs. Nichols. But if you're here to
ask us to forgive Melody, there's no need for this conversation to go any further.”
Debra smiled, undeterred. “Mr. Vargas, don’t you think it’s a bit premature to asswhy I'm here before I've
even spoken?”
Lauren rose from her seat and stepped forward. “Ms. Frazier, do you remember me? We've met before, haven't
we?”
Debra kept her polite smile. “Of course, Mrs. Vargas. I've heard of the close bond between you and Mr. Vargas.
You're quite the model couple. I'm sure we've crossed paths a few times.”
Lauren beamed, nodding. “Hester told us that it was thanks to your help she was able to secure the contract and
avoid being pushed around by the Nichols. We owe you a big thank you.”
“No need for thanks. | was just looking out for myself too.” Debra responded, taking the ring box out of her bag.
She opened the lid, revealing the sapphire ring. Knowing jewels, Lauren couldn’t hide her awe.

Lauren took the ring and examined it. “This must be worth billions.”
Debra nodded. “Melody intends to use it as payment for her debt. I've brought it here today to discuss a deal
with your family.”
The room's energy shifted, and Jenson put in a serious face.
“So, are you here to speak on behalf of the Nichols family?”
“Of course not. If | were here for their sake, | wouldn't have shown Hester how to protect her rights in the first
place.”
