Her mother's necklace

Ariel threw her gaze aside while pursing her lips. She told him what happened, now what was he going to do?

Raymond reached out for her and touched her head, gently stroking yo the side. She looked up at him to see a concerned expression on his face.

"Are you alright?" He asked her in a gentle tone and for a moment, she remembered what White said about Raymond having feelings for her.

Was it true? Maybe White misjudged it. Maybe he was just being paranoid and came to such a conclusion. Maybe...

"Ariel." Raymond called. "Speak to me."

"I'm... Not alright." She said and strings of tears found their way down her cheeks. "Raymond, I feel really bad."

Raymond hugged her and pressed her head against his chest. He stroked her hair. Seeing her sad expression equally made him sad.
