If she doesn't say something Helen might stop, it would be like beating a dead horse. Now if she does stand up to her, I don't think anyone will interfere.
I think Jale is a little scared that the insults might become more hurtful. Like her targeting her weight or something like that. She might not be able to come back at her with something which would hurt her equally as much.

Jale knows what she's doing, it's called being passive aggressive. It will work to her advantage. Now if it had been me, I would have been kicked out for kicking her in the face.
