Evelyn tried to quickly put on her smooth fake smile as Arthur stepped closer.
Evelyn: I was just teaching Maya some important discipline and responsibility today Arthur.
Evelyn: She was being very disrespectful and refused to help clean our big kitchen.
Arthur slammed his hand down on the marble counter with a loud booming thud.
Evelyn jumped back in absolute terror, staggering against the white counter behind her.
Arthur: I saw everything on the security video stream from my office phone!
Arthur: I heard every single cruel word you screamed at my helpless children!
Evelyn's mouth opened wide in complete disbelief and sheer speechless terror.
She clutched her black silk robe tightly around her chest as her hands trembled.
Evelyn: Arthur please, you are misunderstanding the whole situation right now!
Evelyn: I was just stressed out, I love these kids with all my heart!
Arthur: You do not know what love means, you monster!
Arthur stepped past Evelyn completely, ignoring her fake desperate tears and pleas.
He dropped to his knees immediately in front of his shaking teenage daughter Maya.
He wrapped his strong arms tenderly around Maya and baby Liam in a tight hug.
Maya burst into loud sob tears as she buried her face in her father's shoulder.
Maya: Daddy, I was so scared she was going to hurt little Liam today!
Arthur: You were so brave my sweet girl, I am so sorry I was not here sooner.
Arthur: Nobody will ever treat you like this again in your own home, I promise you.
Arthur held his children closely while turning his head to look up at Evelyn with fury.
Arthur: How dare you touch my child or threaten them in my own house!
Evelyn: Arthur, remember our marriage vows and our brand new life together!
Arthur: Our marriage is completely over as of this exact second Evelyn!
Arthur: My family trust fund and full custody of my children belong to me alone!
He signaled to his two heavy security guards who were standing in the kitchen doorway.
Arthur: Escort this woman out of my house immediately and do not let her return!
