Mrs. Dorling acted indifferently when the author said, "I am Mrs. S's daughter," since she didn't want to give her all of Mrs. S's valuable possessions.
Explanation:
This is a question taken from the story "The Address."
When the narrator came to her house, Mrs. Dorling pressed her palm against the door, as if she didn't want it to open anymore.
Her expression was completely devoid of recognition.
She kept silently staring at the woman.
Since the narrator knew about the lady's greediness, The narrator pretended to be unconcerned with reality.
The irony is both of them sold their most prized possessions to get the other a special christmas present, however both of their presents are designed for the prized possession each one sold.
This is critic as both characters realised that the other person would give up their prized possession for them to be happy. This is a key message sent by the author through this book. They are wise as they know that people should be more valued over possessions.
