Make it right (2)

Rose wouldn't believe it if Alessandra herself were to come and say that she had somehow become close with Priscilla. Women had their own games that men would not understand. Alessandra was playing it well, and Alfred did not realise it. Rose didn't think Alessandra had it in her. 

"Long after Edmund's marriage has ended, I am still having trouble with that woman. I will not have Alessandra be so close to Priscilla if she wants me to be near her. You know the trouble that I had to deal with his mother, Alfred. I cannot and will not be made to be anywhere near Priscilla. Edgar should have gotten rid of her when she almost had you killed," Rose said, still angered by what happened.
