No, it's not Derek, it's Brian.
also your answer is wrong.
What we have is:
1). John loved girl-1 who loved Jim.
2). Allan loved girl-2 who loved Bill.
3). Rose loved gentleman-1 who loved Mary.
4). Gloria loved gentleman-2 who loved Rose.
5). Gloria did not like Jim and John.
6). Bill did not like Mary.
Reasoning:
7). Item 3 and 4 can be conbined into 1 chain.
8). Gloria can not be the girl-1 because 1 and 5.
9). Since Bill does not like Mary, Bill can not be gentleman 1.
10). Bill can not love Gloria, because that will end up combining item 2 and 7. The resulting chain will have 5 girls. It meant Bill was gentleman 2 and loved Rose.
11). It also implied that girl-2 was Gloria.
12). According to item 2, the answer was
Allan loved Gloria.
