“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!”

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!”
