Thea's words were harsh, but she showed no malice while speaking. Her voice stayed even and without emotion.
Vicky didn't take offense either. Instead, she turned towards her mother's statue, while thinking through the meaning behind Thea's words. It took only a few minutes for her to fully grasp its meaning.
