Ruth's expression almost faltered for a moment, but she quickly snapped, "What are you talking about?"

Rebecca retorted. "If there really was nothing, you should be puzzled, not instantly enraged, Ruth. You're not an actress, it's hard to deceive a professional actor without exceptional acting skills.
