"Of course. Madam is the smartest woman in this whole world" Beth proclaimed with her chin held high.
"And a business led by her would be the most successful one of all". Beth continued with praises of her mistress. "She handled a challenging problem on her own. People were so impressed by our madam's excellent problem-solving abilities. And not only that she even gave me expensive gifts"
Beth stopped and looked back at the girl following her with condescending eyes. "Oops, sorry. You wouldn't know how it feels"
Her demeanour had a tone of challenge and sarcasm as if she were challenging Layla's status itself. If it were another noble, her head would be cut off from her body, but in this case, Beth seemed to live.
This only further highlights Layla's position in this household.
