She could see on Brooke's face the suspicion there.  She tried to put up a strong front, and even went so far as to practically say it wouldn't matter.  As she walked with Brooke she said "Nice try, but you can't look me in the eye, and I can see right through you.  I'm not saying this to hurt you, but to say I'm sorry for your pain.  Think again about some kind of sharing arrangement.  You're a lovely woman Brooke, and maybe you and I can... comfort each other as well," she said, squeezing Brooke's hand as they re-entered the room.
