"Oh," Karen muttered under her breath, realization dawning on her. So this was the infamous Gillian.
The incredibly foolish idiot!
It wasn't surprising she described her that way; in Karen's eyes, Gillian was just that.
Stupid, despicable, and needing a beating!
How had Vivienne not knocked her lights out?
Gillian, hands clutched around her neck, took several deep breaths, cursing under her breath at Thomas for being such a brute with no chivalry.
