"What nonsense are you spouting?" Liza grumbled. "Drake isn't a good person
anyway. His life or death has nothing to do with us."
Garland chided, "Drake was once your fiancé. Don't be so harsh."
Liza felt embarrassed and shot back, "I am harsh. | just hate him. So what? | don't
care."
She stormed upstairs, fuming. Garland sighed, knowing her temper too well.
Turning to Randy and Erica, he apologized, "I'm sorry about this. I'll talk to her
later. We're all decent people here."
With that, he hurried upstairs to soothe Liza. Whenever she was upset, she would
tell Bert about it. He was afraid that Bert would fly over immediately and spank
