Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1229

In the afternoon, Debra showed up at the Buchan Mansion.

Sitting across from Theda, she sipped on her tea. "The tea has been ready for a while. You knew I would come."

"Let's just cut to the chase," Theda said. "It's your setup, isn't it? The termination of the partnership and the sale of Buchan Entertainment at a low price. Now everyone knows that the Buchan family and the Nichols family have severed ties. Since it's my mistake, people will force me to step down."

She observed Debra's expression and continued, "You're even sharper than I expected. I mean, who would have thought a pampered lady like you could orchestrate such a complex scheme and predict the outcome so accurately?"

"You flatter me," Debra replied. "Your solitary nature must have been formed when you were sent to the countryside as a child, and your strained relations with your family were easy to deduce. People act out of self-interest. You cause them financial losses, and they demand paybacks. Now here we are, sitting together and having a peaceful talk."

"Let's just get to the point and not waste each other's time."

"Alright. I'm willing to pay for the 10% shares you hold, and the price will cover all your losses."

Debra placed a check in front of Theda.

"I thought you weren't interested in these shares. What made you change your mind?"

"That's my business. I just hope that after this, we can bury the hatchet and maybe even become friends."

"Bury the hatchet? I may have lost to you, but that doesn't make me stupid. This was clearly your trap. I don't know how you managed to cancel our cooperation without Drake taking office yet, but I'm certain you were behind it all."
