Chapter 75

This took everyone by surprise. It sent chills down their spines and was a real eye–opener for Penelope.

“Nina, are you out of your mind? You slapped Miranda!” her colleague exclaimed, shocked.

Miranda tilted her head slightly, stunned for several seconds.

Nina replied, “You slapped Yvonne; it’s only fair I return the favor!”

The assistant, startled, immediately pushed Nina away: “Are you crazy? How dare you hit Miranda…”

Nina retaliated by slapping the assistant back. “You lack manners. With such a troublemaking assistant like you, it’s no wonder Miranda got slapped!”

The assistant couldn’t articulate her anger as Nina remained unfazed.

Miranda covered her face, tears streaming down, and said softly, “Ruby, let it go. We can’t afford to provoke her…”

Sally rushed over in a fit of rage at the sight of Miranda being slapped. “Nina, it’s you again. This time, I didn’t make a mistake, did I? You are bullying Miranda behind Nash’s and my back. You’re just Nash’s secretary; do you think you’re someone special? Miranda is my future daughter–in–law!”

Miranda, adept at showing weakness, cried in Sally’s arms, “Sally!”
