Later that afternoon, the sun beamed brightly through the clear grand windows.
Victoria stood in the living room, shouting angrily at the terrified twin girls.
She had trapped them in the corner of the room with harsh threats.
Stepmother Victoria: You spilled water on my expensive rug! Stop crying this instant!
The little girls wept hysterically, holding each other on the cold floor.
Victoria stepped closer, raising her hand to make another terrifying gesture.
Elena rushed into the grand room, placing herself directly between them instantly.
Maid Elena: Please, stop screaming at these innocent babies right now!
Stepmother Victoria: How dare you interfere with how I handle my stepdaughters!
Maid Elena: You are being cruel to them, and I will not stand by!
Victoria stepped forward with an angry snarl, threatening to push Elena back.
Suddenly, the heavy mahogany front doors swung open into the high foyer.
Arthur walked into the house earlier than expected after ending his meeting early.
He heard the loud shouting echo across the polished marble floor.
His face turned pale as he saw his tiny daughters weeping on the ground.
Father Arthur: What is the meaning of this awful commotion in my home?
Victoria immediately changed her posture, turning around with a fake soft smile.
Stepmother Victoria: Oh Arthur, thank goodness you arrived home to help me!
Father Arthur: Why are my daughters crying so hard, Victoria?
Stepmother Victoria: This incompetent maid was yelling at the children and frightened them!
Elena shook her head firmly, her eyes filled with tears of pure emotion.
Maid Elena: That is a complete lie, sir! She was threatening your daughters!
Stepmother Victoria: Do not listen to a simple servant over your own wife!
Maid Elena: Sir, she treats them horribly every time you leave for work!
Arthur looked back and forth between his crying daughters and the two women.
Father Arthur: Elena, speak clearly right now. What has she been doing?
Maid Elena: She locks them away, screams at them, and frightens them daily!
Victoria rushed toward Elena with her hands raised in a sudden rage.
Stepmother Victoria: Shut your mouth right now, you miserable lying maid!
Arthur moved quickly, stepping firmly between Victoria and the brave maid.
Father Arthur: Do not lay a hand on anyone in this house, Victoria!
Stepmother Victoria: Arthur, you cannot believe this ridiculous story from a maid!
Maid Elena: Check the hallway security cameras that you installed last month, sir.
Victoria froze entirely, her face losing all color in an instant moment.
