Dispatcher: 911, what is your emergency?
Ethan: I need emergency police officers dispatched to 400 Crestview Drive immediately. My wife just attempted to assault my one-year-old daughter with a weapon.
Victoria: No! Ethan, hang up! Hang up right now!
Victoria scrambled up from the floor, reaching frantically for Ethan's phone. Ethan shoved her away with his forearm, sending her tumbling onto the plush sofa near the wall.
Ethan: She is dangerous and mentally unstable. Please send units right away. We have security footage ready for the officers.
Dispatcher: Units are on the way, sir. Stay on the line and remain in a safe location.
Ethan: Thank you.
Ethan lowered his phone and glared at the woman he had foolishly married six months ago. His chest heaved with heavy breaths of disappointment and fury.
Ethan: Get up.
Victoria: Ethan, darling, please... think about my reputation! Think about my family’s name!
Ethan: You should have thought about your family’s name before you acted like an animal in my house.
Victoria: I’ll leave! I’ll pack my bags and leave right now! You’ll never have to see me again! Just don't press charges!
Elena: You aren't going anywhere, Victoria. The main gates are locked automatically at eight. You can't leave the property without the security code.
Victoria: You quiet little bitch! You set me up!
Elena: No, Victoria. You set yourself up the moment you let your greed consume your soul. Sarah trusted me to watch over her family, and I will never let anyone hurt Lily. Never.
Victoria stood up, her jaw clenched, her eyes darting around the nursery looking for an escape route. But Ethan stood firmly in front of the door, his tall frame completely blocking the exit.
Victoria: You think you're so smart, Ethan? You think you're a hero? You're a fool! You were so desperate for a wife after Sarah died that you bought every single lie I told you!
Ethan: You're right. I was a fool. I was blind to who you really were. But my eyes are wide open now.
Victoria: My father’s legal team will tear you apart in court! They’ll say you forced me into this! They’ll say you abused me!
Ethan: Let them try. I have the best divorce lawyer in the state, and more importantly, I have undisputed video proof of your cruelty.
Sirens began to wail in the distance, growing louder as police cars sped up the long, winding drive toward the mansion.
