Theresa after speaking signaled to Emily and Maria to take the dress from the bed and help the green-eyed lady dress up.
Emily and Maria with their heads bowed walked to the bed and first took the undergarments and walked to where Perdita stood with a gobsmacked expression.
Emily spoke, "My Lady, please go behind the divider and wear these so we can proceed to help you wear the dress."
Perdita finally snapped out of her reverie and averted her gaze from the dress that was on the bed. She turned to look at the maids as if they have gone mad. She quizzed,
"Who did you say is wearing t...that dress?!"
Theresa gritted her teeth in suppressed anger. She asked with rage boiling within her, "Don't you like the dress?"
"No!" Perdita was quick to answer with a bewildered look. What were these maids thinking about bringing such a dress for her? The dress was no less than one worn by wealthy women of high society.
