While Ramon goes jetsetting around the world seeking danger and pleasure, Agnes sits at home taking care of their elderly parents. After several years of dealing with the day to day drudgery of feeding, bathing, clothing, and toileting her parents Ramon sends Agnes a letter. In the letter Ramon expresses his appreciation for "all you have done for mom and dad" and promises to send her $5000 as he had amassed a sizable sum of money in his worldly pursuits. Agnes sends him a response thanking him and accepting his generous offer. Unfortunately, Ramon is soon killed during one of his dangerous and pleasurable pursuits, and his will left his entire fortune to the glamorous and mysterious Isabella. Agnes claims that Ramon's was contractually obligated to pay in accordance with the agreement (death does NOT terminate prior debts of the decedent). Isabella tells Agnes to take a flying leap off a bridge. Agnes sues. Was Ramon contractually obligated to pay Agnes?????
