This was in part defence against Guillam, who while attractive, she didn’t trust further than she could throw him, and in part an equally automatic reaction against the nervousness roused in her by the dual scrutiny of George Smiley and Connie Sachs, both of whom she knew primarily through reputation alone.
When she later found herself bumping into the tall blond outside of one of the lifts, she was unsurprised, but feigned it.
