The dark blue sedan pulled into the long gravel driveway of the family estate.
Victoria stood near the front porch stairs with her arms crossed tightly over her chest.
Victoria: David, why did you bring this disrespectful maid back onto our property?
David: We are going down to the basement safe together right now, Victoria.
Victoria: Why would we do that on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon like today?
David: Because fifty thousand dollars went missing from my private trust account yesterday.
Victoria's face turned pale white as she tried to maintain her calm composed posture.
Victoria: I transferred that money to hire a new interior designer for the estate.
Sarah: That is a lie, you transferred it to a private off-shore bank account!
Victoria: Shut your mouth, you low-class worker, you have no right to speak!
David: Sarah has every right to speak because she is protecting my daughter's future.
David marched down the wooden stairs leading straight into the large furnished basement.
Victoria followed close behind him while nervously twisting her diamond wedding band ring.
David: Type the pass code into this wall safe right now, Victoria.
Victoria: I forgot the new combination number, David, let us try tomorrow morning.
David: Open the safe right now or I am calling the local police department!
Victoria reluctantly tapped six numbers into the digital electronic keypad system on the wall.
The heavy iron door clicked unlocked with a heavy mechanical metallic sound.
David pulled open the safe door and looked at the top wooden shelf inside.
David: Where are my late wife's diamond family heirlooms and gold ring set?
Victoria: I sent them out for professional cleaning and polishing last week!
Sarah: Look inside her leather purse sitting right there on the laundry desk.
David reached over and opened the brown leather handbag resting on the table.
He pulled out a velvet box and several pawn shop appraisal receipts instantly.
David: You were trying to sell my late wife's original engagement ring today!
Victoria: It was just a temporary loan, David, I was going to pay it back!
David: You lied to me, you mistreated my daughter, and you stole from us!
Victoria: You cannot prove anything in a court of law without solid evidence!
