If you risk your life to save mine from drowning and I thank you only because I think you were sent by the devil to save me would you take offence?
I would feel pretty confused...invisibility and pinkness not being especially harmonious concepts, and the devil not being especially famous for being a doer of good works. The woman did thank the heroine anyway (and not only because she was an "angel")...so I fail to see the analogy.
