Julian pulled out a small tablet from the side table, entering his administrator security code quickly.
He handed the device directly to Officer Davis, who pressed play on the freshly recorded video file.
The clear camera angle showed the balcony in sharp detail, capturing the entire heated conversation.
It clearly showed Vanessa stepping forward aggressively and shoving Victoria over the glass ledge.
Officer Davis: That is clear evidence of reckless endangerment and attempted murder.
Vanessa: Officer, please! I didn't mean for her to actually fall!
Officer Davis: You have the right to remain silent, Miss. Anything you say can and will be used against you.
The second officer stepped forward, pulling steel handcuffs from his utility belt with practiced speed.
He clicked the metal restraints firmly around Vanessa's wrists while reading her legal rights aloud.
The gathered family members and gala guests watched in stunned silence as Vanessa was led away.
She looked back at Victoria one last time, her eyes filled with tears of regret and shame.
Vanessa: Victoria, please tell them not to do this!
Victoria turned her head away, taking a deep breath as the heavy weight of betrayal settled in.
Victoria: You made your choice, Vanessa. Now you have to face the consequences.
The police guided Vanessa out the heavy front doors, where red and blue lights flashed against the glass.
Julian sat back down beside Victoria's stretcher, gently wrapping his arms around her shoulders again.
Julian: The ambulance is going to take us to the hospital just to do a full checkup.
Victoria: I just want to go somewhere quiet and safe with you.
Julian: Our family is safe now, nothing will ever harm you or our baby again.
The paramedics carefully lifted the stretcher, wheeling Victoria out toward the warm sunlight outside.
