What I'd say:

"Oh, I honestly hadn't planned on using it at all, so I kept it to make the Duke happy, and I'll only likely use it in an emergency."

Wouldn't be much he could say after that. If he tells her to give it to him, no, it's not his. If he says to give it back to the Duke, she tried and that's really not his call. If he tries to make it his call, I'd just remind him that although he may manage it, it's not HIS money, and that the Duke, who insisted she keep it btw, is the only person who gets a say.

God do I ever HATE characters who think they're way more important than they actually are. I hope she kicks him in the shin, if only to get him back for comparing her to Diana.

Sorry, the Diana sycophants in this just make me so fricken annoyed.
