To the people of Harmonfield , she was an image of cold beauty , a quiet heiress of the Dunn family , whose wealth and power were only whispered about .

But no one had ever heard her speak like this before .

Her voice was sharp , cutting through the silence .

Arrogant ? What does it matter if I insult your family ? And she was right .

You dont understand how to play this game yet .

Mr.

Ramsey , may I destroy the Millers now ? Robin nodded without hesitation .
