Review the fact situation above and now assume that on November 1,B said to A,"Rather than paying me the full $5000.00,just pay me $3500.00 and give me your watch,and your debt will be cancelled." A's watch is a cheap one worth $5.00.A gives B the watch and pays him the $3500.00.
In this situation,
A) B can recover the $1500.00 from A because the contract was to repay a debt of $3500.00.
B) B cannot recover the $1500.00 from A because A's watch is fresh consideration.

D) there is still no fresh consideration for B's promise to reduce A's debt to $3500.00.
E) the watch is meaningless and A will still owe B $1500.00.
