AdvertisementHenry quickly put her behind him and raised his voice, "Don't you forget your place? Your relation to my uncle is why I am being very tolerant of you, but don't push it . "
The shaking accusing finger came very close to Henry's face as the woman's voice became shrill, "You . . . such a willful temper to disregard family and tradition . You bring disrespect to all the Wongs who came befpre you . How dare you! I was just hearing from your maid that you were recently wed . How delightful! Pah, just a month ago Wallace was trying to set up blind dates for you when you were pining after that woman who wouldn't have you . Now you have gone and done it . " Her eyes were snake-like slits that hypnotized Ellie into confusion . What was she saying? "So since no one woulf have you found some weak nobody whose legs will open for you . How much did he pay for you prostitute? Did you work the streets or were you an escort he lured away from your madam . Why don't you tell me so I can pay off your debt and you'll be free of him .

Henry in the haze generated by the shock of the moment had forgotten that she was there . But now he knew she was in tune with him, he moved so she was in full view of fuming Dorota . He wanted his aunt to see that she was indeed trespassing on a private bedroom . However, the housewife was far past a semblance of retaining her ghost of a good host . The sight of Ellie in a nightgown only served to tighten her fists further in irritation .
Henry didn't like making introductions with these sort of circumstances . But Dorota had brought it upon herself . He just wished she had not dragged Ellie down to her level just because of her selfishness
