"Ally, do you really have to act like this? That dog was with Rebecca for six whole years! How can you have no sympathy?

"And besides, I've already apologized so humbly. What more do you want?"

Kendrick knew that dog had been with Rebecca for six years. As her so-called childhood friend, he knew everything about her.

Seeing that I wasn't moved, Kendrick leaned in close to my ear and whispered, "Just do me this one favor, okay? She's my lifesaver, after all."

Hearing that familiar line, I only felt extremely ridiculous.

I thought to myself, "If you're so grateful to her, then why are you even with me? Why not just marry her instead?"

"Enough. I don't want to hear it anymore," I said coldly, pushing Kendrick away.

"Alisson! Are you serious? How can you be so unreasonable? How many times do I have to tell you? Rebecca is just a friend. How long are you going to keep this up?"

"Kendrick, do you even remember why I'm angry in the first place?"

Kendrick's arrogance suddenly vanished. "Your mom... the hospital?"

I shoved him away impatiently and quickly walked off.
