Elena pulled the soft blanket tighter around the screaming infant while gasping for her own air.
She looked up at the high balcony with teary eyes filled with shock and absolute anger.
Victoria stood up high on the balcony balcony looking down with a sudden horrified expression now.
The rich woman gasped sharply while gripping the polished railing with her own pale trembling hands.
Heavy footsteps suddenly echoed from the front parlor doors as they burst open with force.
Arthur Sterling walked into the grand room wearing his sharp charcoal grey business suits today.
He froze completely when he saw his maid lying flat on the floor holding his crying child.
His face turned totally pale as he ran across the room toward his crying young son.
Elena pointed an unsteady hand up toward the upper balcony where Victoria still stood frozen solid.
Elena: She dropped him on purpose, Mr. Sterling!
Arthur: What are you saying right now, Elena?
Elena: I saw her hands open and push him right over the high wooden railing upstairs!
Arthur looked up at his wife Victoria with eyes that showed absolute shock and growing horror.
Victoria shook her head back and forth while holding her green silk dress near her chest.
Victoria: It was a total accident, Arthur, I swear I just lost my firm grip!
Elena: She smiled right before she let go of the blanket upstairs, I saw her face!
Arthur did not wait another second to hear any more excuses from his rich elegant wife.
He charged up the wooden spiral staircase with fast heavy steps that shook the whole railing.
His face was red with sudden anger as he reached the top landing near the balcony.
He pointed his finger right at Victoria while his loud voice shook the high ceilings above.
Arthur: Get out of my house this instant and never come near my son again!
Victoria backed away slowly toward the hall wall while gasping for air in deep panic.
