Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk by Melissa Johns

Chapter 141

The next day, after getting back from North Ridge Mountain, Lillian headed straight to Emily's place to let off some steam.

"Grandma, I swear, Allison just can't stand me. I don't even know why. That whole mess at the stables was just a mix-up, and I did apologize afterward, but she still won't let it go."

Sitting on the sofa next to Emily, Lillian's eyes were red and puffy from crying, her voice thick with emotion. "She's got this weird beef with me, and I can't figure out why she's always on my case."

Seeing her granddaughter so upset, Emily felt bad too. She squeezed Lillian's hand. "Sweetheart, tell me what that girl has been doing to you."

Lillian sniffled, her voice trembling with hurt. "I think she feels like I'm stealing Joshua's attention, so she's always pushing me out. Like, when we were chilling at the base camp, I made some stew for Joshua, but Allison swiped it and ate it herself, saying my cooking was awful."

Emily frowned, "Did she really do that?"

"It gets worse, Grandma," Lillian said, sounding all kinds of miserable. "I was exhausted and asked Joshua to carry my backpack, but she wouldn't have it. She said she's his girlfriend, so only her bag gets carried. Seriously, Grandma, I've known Joshua forever. Can't he carry my bag without it being a big deal?"
