She had succeeded in making Anna lose her composure and reveal her true nature. Anna's unconscious, thoughtless words only exposed her weakness and vulnerability, a weakness Emma had recognized and used. But even though Emma felt pleased inside, she maintained a cold and indifferent expression, as if none of this had anything to do with her.
