Mrs. Herd was truly angry this time, as she had never said anything this harsh in her life.
But Mrs. Zell had truly provoked her. How could she say that in front of her, as if she was dead? Usually, she could overlook minor quarrels, but Mrs. Zell had the audacity to utter such words.
Scarlett Glenn looked at Mrs. Herd in surprise; she thought that her sharpness during their last dinner was the most extreme to be, but who knew she could be even worse?
Scarlett Glenn suddenly wanted to hold Mrs. Herd's hand, like when she was little, holding her mother's hand.
Mrs. Zell abruptly turned around, "You... Emilia Johnny, say it one more time."
Mrs. Herd raised her chin, "Oh? Not bad, the dirty little girl who used to follow me around with a runny nose has learned to command me now."
Mrs. Zell's face turned red with anger, "Emilia Johnny, don't bully me just because you can."
