Chapter 541

Lauren was puzzled. “Then what brings you here?”

Debra replied, “I came to ask the three of you. What are your thoughts on this ring?”

“Thoughts?” Lauren glanced at Jenson before forcing a smile. “Well, our family is modest and humble. Since the ring is already quite valuable, we see no reason to refuse it.”

Debra turned her gaze to Jenson. “Mr. Vargas, do you feel the same way?”

Jenson was a small–time businessman who had worked his entire life without earning enough to afford a ring like this.

He simply nodded. “If sold, this ring could fetch a considerable price. I have no reason to be dissatisfied.”

Debra raised a problem. “Indeed, this ring is worth one billion dollars. However, you’ll replace it difficult to sell.

Lauren was confused. “Please enlighten me. The ring is in perfect condition. Why would it be hard to sell?”

The ring boasted high quality and a long history. If they put it up for auction, it was bound to bring in a

fortune.

Debra let out a soft sigh. “Mrs. Vargas, it seems you’re not too familia

with the jewelry market. Even though this ring is incredibly precious, it’s more suited for collectors. Without the right buyer, you could end up stuck with it.”

“Uh…”

“Think about it. Why would Melody so easily give away such a rare item? Doesn’t she know that this ring is

worth far more than cash?”

Lauren hesitated, going silent. It didn’t take a genius to realize that an heirloom of this magnitude was worth much more than money.

“I’m sure Melody is well aware of this,” Debra added. “The Nichols family has power not only in the business world but also in auction circles. If she doesn’t want you to sell that ring, it’s as good as unsellable. Eventually, the ring will rot in your hands, and when you’re desperate to sell it, Melody can swoop in and buy it at a fraction of its value.”

Her words landed like a bomb, leaving everyone stunned.

“Her schemes run so deep!” Jenson growled.

Lauren asked, “Ms. Frazier, what should we do then? Should we even keep the ring?”

Hester, who knew all too well how scheming Melody could be, stepped forward to grab Debra’s hand.

“Ms. Frazier, I’ve wronged you before. Please, don’t hold it against me. Help us.”

“That’s why I’m here today.”

“That’s wonderful. Just tell us what to do, and we’ll follow your lead.”

“I have a plan. It’s just a matter of whether you guys are willing to go through with it.”

“Tell us. We’ll do whatever it takes.”

“Good. I want you to take the ring back and make another scene.”

“Another scene?”

They had caused quite a stir today, forcing Melody to compromise, but the Nichols wouldn’t just let anyone walk all over them.
