Sue was displeased. She walked briskly toward Cecilia, patting the latter's shoulder as she assessed the surroundings. There was a tenderness in her eyes.

She took the cotton blanket from Cecilia's hand and returned it to Albert. While the blanket was made of pure cotton, it wasn’t as warm as the lightweight silk blanket Sue brought with her.

Throughout the conversation, Sue didn't say anything humiliating and didn't criticize anything. However, the way she regarded everything around her showed her high and mighty attitude.

Albert felt somewhat embarrassed. He grew to realize he had been terribly unfair to Diana in the past.
