Evelyn swung the tiny baby carelessly, showing complete disregard for his fragile safety.
Clara gasped in terror as Evelyn intentionally tossed the infant high into the air.
The infant shrieked in panic as he tumbled downward toward the hard marble floor.
Without hesitating for a single second, Clara sprinted across the slippery marble surface.
She slid hard across the floor, extending her arms as far as she could reach.
Clara caught little Leo securely against her chest moments before he hit the ground.
The hard impact rattled her knees, but she refused to let the baby go.
She curled her body around the sobbing child, holding him tightly in her arms.
Tears of pure emotional relief flooded Clara's eyes as she checked his little hands.
The baby was shivering frantically, gasping for breath against Clara's light blue uniform.
Evelyn stood above them, laughing mockingly at the dramatic scene on the floor.
"Look at you, sprawling like an idiot on the ground," Evelyn sneered coldly.
Clara felt a surge of righteous anger burning inside her chest like never before.
She carefully stood up, holding the frightened baby firmly against her left shoulder.
Clara marched directly toward Evelyn, her eyes filled with absolute determination and rage.
"You monster!" Clara shouted, her voice echoing off the tall foyer walls loudly.
"How could you do something so cruel to a defenseless little child?!"
Evelyn opened her mouth to snap back, but Clara cut her off completely.
Clara stepped right into Evelyn's personal space, refusing to back down an inch.
"You are a wicked, dangerous woman!" Clara yelled directly into Evelyn's surprised face.
Evelyn stumbled backward against a white pillar, her face pale with total shock.
She had never expected the quiet maid to confront her with such fury.
The confrontation in the grand foyer was escalating beyond anyone's imagination now.
