Answer:

"Kill him"

Step-by-step explanation:

Hyperbole is a figure of speech which is often a great or obvious exaggeration mostly for emphasis or humorous effect. Her expression was Kill him and she was only emphasising on the how important it was for the work to be done instead of playing with the cat. It reveals the strict nature of the Van Daans.
