Of course it could theoretically be that Ophelia is the one she refers to, and no one actually knew about Clare, but that seems unlikely from a storytelling perspective.

Therefore I'm going to go with Viz's version that all young girls were spared. Makes a bit more sense that there's some sort of mental hangup in Priscilla herself than that there's some magical "don't eat me" field around chibi-Clare.
Riful said "that little girl[/s] only had not one scratch". Which means she can't be referring to Ophelia for two reasons:

1) Ophelia is not a little girl, she's a young woman.
2) Ophelia was beaten nearly to death, I wouldn't call that "not one scratch". Perhaps Prissyface left her alone when she saw she's about to awaken?
