บท 557: Raymond Tried To Help Her

"Why? Does she not look fine?" Raymond whose eyes were centred on Joanna's body feigned ignorance of his friend's statement.

"I am sure you must have noticed that something is off about her before I do, so you can quit the pretence. I won't fall for it," Derrick shrugged his shoulders and moved to stand in front of him.

"Hey, you are in my way..."

"Since you didn't approach her despite knowing that all was not well with her, I believe you have an idea about what is wrong with her, so why don't you let me in on the secret hmm?" Derrick implored. 

He refused to budge despite Raymond's attempt to push him out of his front.

"Who knows I might be able to cheer her up on your behalf if I know what the problem is..."

"This is a problem neither you nor I can solve. The best way to help her is to act as if we don't know anything," Raymond replied.
