Nasty Break-Up. Harold wants to purchase a lot next door to Sarah's home that is owned by Sarah. Harold

knows Sarah will not sell the lot to him because they dated in the past and had a nasty break-up. Harold agrees

Harold tells Alice that he no longer wants the lot. Alice tells Sarah about Harold. Sarah tells Alice that as far as

whether Alice or Harold ends up with the lot. She just wants her money. Which of the following is true

regarding whether Harold is liable to Alice for the cost of the lot if Alice pays Sarah the purchase price?
