The answer of Clara Fernández |
"as if she were something that she was not"
My comment:
He's pointing to the chair and telling her there's no food in the house and that she needs to get that and clothes and proceeds to give her instructions of what to do. He's treating her like she's property, a maid or even an escort. She doesn't object because they have some sort of deal, but it is clear that she believes to be neither one of the above, so the idea is "does he think I'm his maid or what"?
