If I don't teach her a lesson today, she'll never learn to be thrifty and respect others' hard work." The maid returned with a leather strap, handing it to Greta. "Ma'am." Greta swung the strap at Nina. She yelped in pain, but her defiant spirit only grew stronger. "How dare you hit me? Who do you think you are? You won't get away with this! Just you wait... when my dad gets back, I'll tell him how you mistreat me. He'll leave you for sure..." As she ranted, Nina dashed around the room. Greta, frail and breathless, couldn't keep up.

Greta lashed her with the strap. "You think you're so clever? Go on, run. Lettell you, as long as you're under my roof, you won't have an easy life. Look at my face. Your mother burned it. She treatedlike this, so I'm just giving it back in kind." She ordered a maid, "Bringsboiling water." Pinned down by a maid, Nina burst into tears, scared by Greta's threat.
Just then, Cameron chome.
A maid who had run out quickly returned with a warning, "Ma'am, Mr. Dawson is back." Greta showed a flicker of panic. She shoved the strap into a maid's hands. "Hide this quickly." She signaled the maid holding Nina to take her back to her room.
Meanwhile, she composed herself to greet Cameron.

He said it without stopping, not. m noticing Greta's disappointed look.
Greta caught up to him, putting on a concerned act. "She's your daughter, and of course, you love her. But she's losing her baby teeth now, and all that sugar isn't good for them."
