An hour later, Marcus arrived at the mansion with several legal aides.
Two city police officers accompanied them to serve formal papers.
David met them in the main entryway with his attorney beside him.
He handed over the security drives and Sarah's recorded footage.
The officers reviewed the clear video evidence with serious faces.
Officer Harris: This is more than enough for immediate protective orders.
David: I want her removed from my property right now.
Marcus: The prenuptial agreement covers full forfeiture in cases of abuse.
They walked into the study where Elena was waiting angrily.
She stood up from the leather couch with her arms crossed.
Elena: David, this ridiculous play-acting has gone far enough!
Officer Harris: Ma'am, you are being placed under emergency restraint.
Elena's eyes widened in genuine panic as the handcuffs appeared.
Elena: You cannot arrest me! Do you know who my father is?
Marcus: Your father's trust fund cannot save you from criminal charges.
The officers escorted the disgraced socialite out through the foyer.
She sobbed loudly as she was led past the staff members.
David stood on the front steps and watched the police cruiser leave.
The bright red gown disappeared behind the dark tinted car windows.
He felt an overwhelming wave of relief wash across his chest.
He turned back into the warm house to address his remaining staff.
He called Sarah into his main office and offered her a seat.
David: Sarah, you saved my son's life today with your courage.
Sarah: I just did what any caring person would do, sir.
David: You will be fully compensated and promoted to head nanny.
Sarah wiped a final tear from her cheek and smiled softly.
Sarah: Thank you, Mr. Davis. He will be safe with me.
