"Pandora allows you to call her that?" Pandora looked sternly at Layla, exuding authority.
"Sorry, Miss, I misspoke, it should be Miss." Layla said with a forced smile. She could show her might outside, but in front of Pandora, her status was no better than a servant's.
"I heard every word you just said! You wanted to find me, wanted me to kneel and apologize in front of the Miller house?" Pandora asked coldly: "You said Theophilus and I shamelessly rented a room? Called me a promiscuous woman?"
She had restrained herself from reacting to Ariel's earlier taunts, not wanting to cause a scene in front of Theophilus. But as soon as Layla left the room, she burst out with a stream of sarcastic insults, just loud enough for her to hear. Now, her anger was like a raging storm!
