Christine was about to stand up when Sylvia reached out to stop her, signaling her not to rush into speaking.

But Christine dodged her hand, stood up, and said defiantly, "I also think camellia suit you better. This place is called Camellia Manor, which clearly reflects your love and appreciation for it."
