Within ten minutes, three police cruisers pulled up the long mansion driveway.
The bright red and blue lights flashed through the tall glass entry doors.
Two uniformed officers stepped inside the grand foyer with their hands ready.
Ethan met the officers immediately and handed them the digital video file.
Ethan: Arrest this woman for attempted harm and criminal conspiracy.
The lead police officer reviewed the footage on the smartphone screen quickly.
He shook his head in disgust as he watched the terrible event play out.
The officers walked over to Victoria and pulled her up from the floor.
They placed metal handcuffs around her wrists right behind her back.
Victoria screamed out loud as the metal clicked tightly onto her wrists.
Victoria: You can't do this to me! I am Mrs. Vance!
Officer: You have the right to remain completely silent, ma'am.
They escorted Victoria out through the heavy double doors into the sun.
Another team of officers went directly to arrest Uncle Richard at his office.
The greedy partnership between the two traitors had finally come to an end.
The grand foyer was suddenly quiet again, filled only with soft afternoon light.
Ethan turned around slowly and walked over to where Elena was standing.
His eyes were red with tears, but his expression was deeply grateful.
He looked at his baby daughter, who was now sleeping peacefully in arms.
Ethan took a deep breath, realizing how close he came to losing everything.
Ethan: You saved my baby's life today, Elena.
Elena: I only did what any decent human being would do, sir.
Ethan shook his head, placing a gentle hand on Elena's soft shoulder.
Ethan: No, you acted like a true mother when she needed one.
He knew that simple thanks would never be enough for her brave act.
