Tonight, she wanted him to rest, letting him call it a night after conducting something that was probably not easy for him to do, yet he was still willing to do it only on her behalf.
Thus, she did not poke about that matter until the moment her mind was poked due to another topic of conversation that flowed without any arrangement.
Noticing Joanna's mind was still occupied, he said, "It was a shame you didn't see how I acted as if I couldn't be separated from your brother."
Turning her head to see Canillas, Joanna responded, "Really?'
"It seems hard to believe even by my own wife," Canillas mumbled, taking a deep sigh in the end.
A chuckle escaped Joanna's lips as she looked at Canillas' expression. She also imagined Canillas' narration in her head.
Turning her body around to face Canillas, Joanna then asked, "What were you doing there to help my brother?" Her eyes glimmered with wonderment.
