Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 451

The words that were supposed to help Debra seemed to only push Freya further into her madness.

Juan, realizing this, shouted, "Shut up!"

Cathryn was scared into silence.

Edgar asked Freya sternly, "What do you want?"

"I just want to destroy her and this show," she shouted, her voice shaking with emotion. "I've sacrificed so much for this show. But just before it started, I got kicked out and was required to pay a huge penalty. You made me do this."

Debra, surprisingly calm, just smiled and spoke quietly.

"It was Cathryn who made you do this, right?"

"It has nothing to do with anyone else. I want your life."

"If you take my life, Oscar won't like you. You won't continue with the show, and you'll still face the penalty. Who's going to pay that? I think it's Cathryn."

Freya's grip on the knife loosened slightly, her resolve wavering. Debra pressed on, her voice steady and reassuring.

"Now that the show is ruined, Cathryn's demand was probably for you to kill me. She'll pay the penalty and even find the best team to declare you mentally unstable, so you'll be released. Then she'll give you a huge sum of money to disappear. Am I right?"

Not far away, Juan sensed something was amiss and glanced at Cathryn, whose face was pale.

Debra raised an eyebrow. "Who are you? And who is she? Cathryn can easily forge contracts. Why would she spend hundreds of millions on you? If you kill me, you'll face the death penalty, and she won't care. If you try to expose her, she can just accuse you of fabricating things. With her family's resources, she won't bear any responsibility."

Debra's words had struck a chord, and Freya could see the logic in them. The stakes Cathryn and she put in were widely different.

Cathryn could give her millions for Debra's death or spend only on lawyer fees to get rid of both Debra and her. Clearly, the latter option was more cost-effective.

Debra spoke up again. "If you want to ruin the show to vent your anger, you've succeeded. If you back off now, I guarantee you'll be fine."
