Harry and Lisa both stood outside for a while staring at the environment, although the house was small it was decorated with flowers that helped beautify the home. “Looks like he found himself a hobby after retirement” Lisa teased seeing how well the plants and flowers were taken care of. His garden lacked no plants at all from tomatoes, peppers, apples, and berries down to large trees that provided fruits and also farm works like cucumber which made life easy for him. “I guess he lost all his friends when he lost his wealth and had to find himself another kind of companion he had to hold onto” Harry commented as he walked closer to the garden, he plunged a piece of tomat

Otherwise, I will be forced to call security to drag you away!! ” He roared at the top of his voice, his eyes filled with fury as Jeff walked away.
