"Anne!" Stephen barked, endeavoring to calm her, but to no avail.
She marched over and grabbed Camilla by the arm and hair, clawing so tightly that Camilla winced and cried out. Then the deranged shrew half-dragged, half-carried her into the corridor and to the yard, where she was flung—naked!— out onto the lawn.
"You bitch in heat," Mrs. Smythe railed. "If you show your sorry hide around here ever again, I swear I'll take a switch to you!"
Camilla was sputtering, and she yearned to exude bravado, but it was impossible to exhibit any aplomb when she was bruised, buffeted, and lying on the grass without her clothes. To her horror, everyone was watching the altercation. Agog, they were lined up along the edge of the pond, rheir mouths flapping in amazement.
"You petty commoner. How dare you threaten me! How dare you touch me! I'll have you jailed for battery."
"You're lucky I'm satisfied with a simple assault!" Smythe gestured toward the assemblage and screamed, "All of you! Vacate the premises! The spa is closed. Indefinitely!"
She spun on her heel and stormed inside.
A stunned silence followed, then one of them tittered, and another joined in, until they were all chortling and pointing. Camilla stood, her rage palpable, and she stared them down, one by one, until the merriment ceased.
She'd been violated and abused, but she wouldn't let any of her associates detect how frightened she'd been. Knees knocking, bones weak, she started toward the pool, when Miss Kate appeared from the barn.
"Where are you going, Lady Camilla?" she had the gall to inquire.
"After that... that lunatic attacked me, I need to wash."
"I believe Mrs. Smythe demanded your departure."
