“You betcha. If you dared to grease the floor outside the restroom to trip up Nat, why wouldn’t I dare to hit you.” Joyce snarled. She shook off her own hand as she felt the sting of that blow herself as well.

A hint of alarm flashed across Jasmine’s eyes but it settled just as quickly. “What proof do you have of this accusation?”
