Maid: No, this can't be real... my husband told me the flames took my baby boy twenty years ago.
Arthur: My father was a monster, Mom! He staged your death, forged the medical records, and took me to Europe so he could claim your family trust fund!
Maid: My estate? The trust fund my parents left for our family?
Arthur: Yes! He told me you abandoned us after the house burned down. He made me believe you walked away and never looked back!
Maid: I never left you! I woke up in an intensive care unit with third-degree burns across my arms and chest. When I woke up, your father showed me a fake death certificate!
Arthur: I knew he was lying! When I turned eighteen, I hired private investigators to track down the truth, but he buried the records behind shell companies and offshore accounts!
Maid: I had nothing left... no money, no home, no family. I was forced to take cleaning jobs just to survive in this city.
Arthur: Look at this scar, Mom. I remembered it every single night before I went to sleep. I remembered the burning wooden beam falling from the ceiling, and how you covered my body with your own arms to shield me from the fire!
Maid: The iron gate caught fire... the hot metal branded my arm when I forced the door open to throw you out to safety.
Arthur: The H-shaped mark from the hot wrought-iron fence! I never forgot it! I promised myself I would search every corner of the world until I found the woman who gave her skin to save my life!
Maid: Artie... my baby boy is really alive?
Arthur: I'm right here, Mom. I'm right here and I am never letting you go again!
The maid collapsed onto her knees beside him, her trembling hands framing his face. The entire office stood in absolute silence as the young billionaire wrapped his arms around the elderly cleaning lady, both of them sobbing uncontrollably on the floor.
