85 Bullying one's husband and Lord

Inside Harold's chamber, Alicia was fuming with anger as she paced back and forth from one end of the room to the other. She could only admit to herself that in her moment of anger she had absolutely forgotten that they were both in his chamber and not hers. And it was only after asking him to get out that she realized where she was. Still, she had been too mad to care, so she had pushed him out regardless.

Their conversation had been going on well earlier (maybe not well, but they had been having a conversation together) until he suddenly said something that didn't make sense. 

The first thing he said was that he had thought about it and felt Paulina would be better off living outside the palace.

"Why?" She had asked apprehensively because it didn't make sense that he was suddenly suggesting having Paulina leave the palace. 

"It would be good for her," he said in a dismissive tone that left her unconvinced.
