Rosalie was not happy about the revelation, but she didn’t think Debra would reject Ralph’s request.
That was a piece of land measuring 60 thousand square meters.
She didn’t want Debra to benefit from it.

Debra sipped her tea calmly. ‘Want a piece of my cake? Fat chance!”
Soon after, Debra left the Frazier family’s house. She was surprised to find Marion’s car was still there.
She knocked on the car window, “What’s going on?”
“Randy said we should celebrate today.”
“I didn’t say that. He wanted it,” Randy denied.
Debra pondered for a moment. “Maybe we should celebrate.”
