Prospero: What, I say? My foot my tutor?—Put thy sword up, traitor, Who makest a show but darest not strike, thy conscience Is so possessed with guilt. Come from thy ward, For I can here disarm thee with this stick And make thy weapon drop. Based on the above lines, we can infer that Miranda knows her father is judgmental and ruthless. She has just asked Prospero to reflect upon his intent.... and Prospero is angry. We can also infer that she suspected this reaction.
