Bile rose in Verity’s throat. She had met Mrs Tallier before, several times in fact, but the other woman wasn’t to know that fact and the contrast in her tone today compared to when Verity was masquerading as Mrs Abercrombie was startling. If ever proof was needed that the world was full of injustices then this was it.
The urge to reply in kind was tremendous, to tell this jumped up girl that manners wouldn’t part her from any of her unearned riches but Verity was more than capable of parting her nose from its proper place. Instead she held her tongue. Mostly.
“I was under the impression that ladies were trained to look where they were going.”
