Mark guided Sarah gently toward the soft living room sofa while Lily held her mother pale hand tightly.
The brave little girl refused to let go of Sarah, kissing her mother cheek over and over again.
Sarah: My sweet girl saved my life today.
Sarah drank a cold glass of fresh water that Mark had quickly grabbed from the kitchen counter nearby.
Two local police officers walked quickly into the home foyer, holding their official notebooks and pens ready.
An officer stepped toward Victoria, asking her to explain what had just happened in the grand house.
Victoria: This is all just a huge misunderstanding!
Victoria wiped a fake tear from her eye, trying to look innocent in front of the police officers.
Mark: She locked my ex-wife under the floor!
Mark pointed straight at Victoria, his voice booming across the spacious living room with fierce power.
Sarah sat up straight on the comfortable couch, looking directly at the senior officer with clear determination.
Sarah: She lured me into the house on Tuesday.
Sarah explained how Victoria invited her over under the pretense of discussing Lily custody papers calmly.
Once Sarah stepped inside the quiet foyer, Victoria pushed her down into the open storage space suddenly.
Victoria had installed the hidden padlock months ago while planning to claim full control over the estate.
The officer turned toward Victoria with a stern expression, pulling metal handcuffs out from his leather belt.
Victoria: You cannot arrest me without evidence!
Victoria backed away toward the front exit, but the second officer blocked her path with a solid frame.
Mark stood beside his daughter, feeling immense regret for ever trusting Victoria in his private life before.
Mark: The legal estate belongs to my daughter.
Mark realized Victoria wanted Sarah gone so she could take over the multi-million dollar family trust fund.
The senior officer clicked the heavy metal handcuffs around Victoria wrists, leading her toward the patrol car.
