Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 404

Debra shrugged. "They started this game. If I didn't beat them at it, I'd be their pawn."

"So, is this settled?"

"Not quite."

"But you just..."

"Is there a signed agreement?"

"I didn't realize you were so calculating."

"I learned from the best."

"Who?"

Debra's mind flashed to Marion, but she sealed her lips and rose from her seat. "Your problem is solved. Once the money comes in, I'll wire it to you."

"Okay."

Debra called Hannah, who promptly sent a car. As she stepped into the practice room, the chatter hushed, all eyes zeroing in on her.

The room quieted, the girls returning to their stretches. Debra brushed off the remarks. She'd weathered worse storms.

Hannah cleared her throat. "You've been training for almost a month. The company's giving you a shot at screen time. Blow it, and it might be your last."

Freya perked up. "What's the gig? Do we need to showcase any talents?"

Hannah held up a hand. "Details to come. For now, shed those extra pounds. The camera adds ten, remember? No one wants to be a blimp on screen."

Her gaze flicked to Eve, barely perceptible but sharp as a blade.
