Victoria raised her hand to strike the maid, but Sarah held her ground without any fear.
Sarah: Touch me and I will call the police this very second!
Victoria: Nobody will ever believe a low-paid servant over the mistress of this house!
Sarah: The burn marks on the rug prove everything you just tried to do!
Victoria stepped back and narrowed her eyes while trying to catch her rapid breath.
She knew that a criminal charge would destroy her chances at receiving any future inheritance.
Victoria: Hand that child back to me right now!
Sarah: You will never touch this baby again as long as I am standing here!
The heavy front doors swung open downstairs, sending an echo throughout the high ceilings.
Ethan had returned home early after finishing his corporate strategy meetings ahead of schedule.
He heard the loud shouting upstairs and immediately dashed up the grand winding staircase.
Ethan: What is going on up here?!
Sarah walked out into the open hallway while cradling the whimpering child in her arms.
Sarah: Sir, please look at what your wife was trying to do to your son!
Ethan saw the smoking clothes iron on the floor and the scorched nursery rug nearby.
Victoria: Ethan, my love, the maid has completely lost her mind today!
Ethan: Is that an iron sitting right next to my son's crib?
Victoria: I was only pressing his formal baby clothes for our evening dinner!
Sarah: She held it right over his face and called him a brat, sir!
Ethan felt a wave of absolute horror sweep over his entire body as he listened.
He walked into the nursery and saw the fresh black burn mark on the floorboards.
Ethan: You were going to hurt my innocent child while I was away!
Victoria: She is setting me up because I threatened to fire her yesterday!
Sarah: I have hidden voice recordings on my phone from last week, Ethan.
Victoria froze completely in her tracks as her face turned pale as fresh snow.
Sarah: She spoke to a divorce lawyer about changing your will and taking full custody.
Ethan turned his fierce gaze back toward his wife with utter contempt in his eyes.
Ethan: You were using my family for money from the very beginning!
Victoria: That is not true, Ethan, you have to listen to me!
Ethan: I am done listening to your endless poison and terrible lies!
