Evelyn: I’m calling my lawyer right now! You’ll lose this house, Marcus! You’ll lose every single penny!
Marcus: Go ahead. Call him. Let’s see if he can lawyer you out of attempted murder.
Evelyn: It’s your word against mine! No court in Texas will believe an old woman with failing eyesight over me!
Marcus: Is that what you think this comes down to? Words?
Evelyn: That’s all you have! An old woman’s crazy story!
Marcus slowly walked past Evelyn, ignoring her screeches, and headed straight into the mansion’s private office. Evelyn followed closely behind, her high heels clicking loudly against the polished hardwood floors as she tried to maintain her composure.
Evelyn: Don't walk away from me! We are talking about the prenuptial agreement! You touched me, Marcus! The prenup says if there’s domestic violence, I get fifty percent of the estate instantly!
Marcus: Ah, so that’s why you started screaming for 911 the second I slapped you.
Evelyn: I don't know what you’re talking about!
Marcus: You orchestrated this whole scene, didn't you? Push Lily, provoke me, get me to react, and activate the abuse clause in our prenup.
Evelyn: You’re insane! You hit me because your crazy mother made up a story!
Marcus: Do you remember what I installed last month, Evelyn?
Evelyn: What... what are you talking about?
Marcus pulled out his smartphone and tapped the screen twice. He pointed it directly at Evelyn's face. The screen showed a crisp, high-definition four-camera feed of the entire estate, including the patio and pool area.
Marcus: 4K outdoor security cameras with wide-angle night vision and 360-degree audio recording. Installed right under the roof tiles near the US flag display.
Evelyn’s face turned completely ghost-white. The smug, arrogant look on her face melted away into raw terror.
Marcus: Let’s play back the last ten minutes, shall we?
Evelyn: Marcus... wait... let’s talk about this rationally.
Marcus: Look at the screen, Evelyn. Look at yourself reaching out and shoving a baby into the water.
Evelyn: I... I was trying to save a bee! There was a wasp on her shirt!
Marcus: Shut your mouth! Listen to the audio: 'You don't belong in my husband's trust fund.' That is your voice, Evelyn!
Evelyn: Please, Marcus! Don't show that to anyone! I was stressed! I haven't been in my right mind lately!
Marcus: You pushed my daughter into a pool for money!
Evelyn: I would never hurt her permanently! I knew Eleanor was in the garden! I knew she would jump in!
Marcus: You lied to my face, tried to frame me for assault, and used my daughter’s life as a pawn for a payout!
Evelyn: What are you going to do?
Marcus: I’m not just divorcing you, Evelyn. I’m going to make sure you spend the next twenty years behind bars.
