In reality, Ophelia was just spouting facts. She really couldn't remember clearly how she had turned out the way she was, completely out of control and did not even hesitate to hurt others. It was totally unlike her usual self and also did not fit her meticulous character. As a noble lady, Ophelia was like every other aristocrat. She cared about her image and was a master at the art of pretense.

So, even if she hated her cousin, Alice, to her core, she wouldn't be courageous enough to openly attack the girl.
