“You’re my bloody assistant!

I pay your salary. You will grovel at my feet if I want, or you’ll drop your ID and walk out of my office this minute.”

Those were his words after I objected to him smacking my butt. I was only defending myself when he attacked me.

The detectives looked at his corpse with scorn and held her as she cried, hoping to close this out as a self-defense case.

Oh, look, is that a nanny cam?

Zina: Ahh… Nanny cam? What? I didn’t know he had one. Uhmm...

Detectives: Why are you shaking?
