Scarlett Glenn's words just now pointed out two things explicitly, "First, you woke up my grandmother, making such a fuss in the middle of the night, asking for a beating, aren't you!"

Mrs. Young was inwardly shocked and pretended not to know, although she was aware that the things on the bed had been placed there by Scarlett Glenn. Still, she had to endure it, powerless as she was in the Davis Family household.

Because even if she revealed why she screamed, Madam and Anthony Davis would surely take their side. And then, at most, they would scold her a bit, doing nothing more, perhaps even blaming her for making a mountain out of a molehill.
After all, Scarlett Glenn was still a "child" — would a little joke from a kid really warrant such an oversensitive reaction?
