Chapter 13: Similar Name
Instantly, Lizzy felt like she wanted to run away. How could she take care of her backyard!?
"Ally! You also want me to take care of your backyard?" Lizzy tries to confirm what she hears. As far as she remembers, she never said that when she made a deal with her.
Lizzy is very familiar with the garden condition behind Allynna’s house. Some grass has grown taller than her, and many fallen leaves have piled up without being cleared. The garden behind Allynna’s house is quite expansive. How could she clean it by herself? A professional gardener tends to take care of the garden at her own house.
"Of course, Liz. My backyard is part of my house, too," Allynna said while inwardly laughing as she noticed Lizzy’s jaw almost touching the floor. It was fun to tease this pampered lady.
"Ally darling, why don’t you call the gardener?" Lizzy suggested. "If you don’t know how to contact the gardener, I can help you contact them. I have an acquaintance who used to take care of my garden."
"Why should I use the gardener? You already promised to help me, right?" Allynna asked casually. However, Lizzy felt like someone had struck her ears.
Allynna ignored Lizzy’s protest as she met her gaze, took a banana from the basket on the coffee table, and began eating it, paying no attention to Lizzy’s sharp glare.
"Ally, when did you become like this? I know you have a heart of gold, but now you’re gradually turning into a cold, heartless best friend," Lizzy stared at her with gloomy eyes, hoping to change Ally’s mind. "I can’t understand that behind your beautiful goddess-like face, you harbor a black heart and make your best friend suffer like this, Allynna Frost... please return to being my kind-hearted friend, Allynna," Lizzy said, her voice genuinely filled with misery.
Allynna was left utterly speechless, observing her dramatic performance.
