Nora had hidden herself in the corner after she entered just now and had refrained from interfering with their family affairs.

When she spoke, Helen finally looked up in a daze. At the sight of Nora, she wiped her tears and stood up. "Ms. Smith… Why are you here?"
Before Nora could speak, Jessica asked, "Ms. Smith, what did you mean by that?"
Nora sighed silently.
Helen was simply too much of a pushover. Being ladylike and soft-spoken were positive traits; gentleness was also part of a person's character. However, being excessively weak and delicate would only encourage others to bully one even more.
However, Jessica seemed different. She was more straightforward and the questions she asked hit the crux of the matter.
Nora didn't want to comfort or persuade them about anything. She merely said, "Thomas is not the father of Cecelia's child."
