The answer to your question would be that the correct reason for the tone jacobs uses in the following line is that he is angry. He cannot believe how his grandmother would lend her earnings to her mistress, how she could trust her. He might think that the mistress is not worthy of his grandmother's trust as he is. Why would she choose the mistress over him? He is her grandson, he should have been given the money.
