“Whomever he was talking with tonight, she cannot possibly compete.”

What it sounds like
No woman Benedict spoke with tonight could match Rosamund.
What it really means
“Araminta dismisses the other woman as no real rival and assures Rosamund she is the more suitable marriage prospect.”
Said today
“Whoever he was talking to, she’s no competition for you.”
What was happening
Rosamund says Benedict’s attention was monopolized by another woman. Araminta comforts her by insisting that, as her daughter, Rosamund cannot be outmatched.
