Mark stepped closer to Eleanor, his body shaking with overwhelming emotion and disappointment.
Husband: How could you do something like this to your own grandson?
Eleanor stammered quickly, trying to find a lie to save herself from the truth.
Elderly Woman: It was an accident, Mark, you have to believe me!
Mother: The video shows everything, Eleanor, you did it on purpose!
Sarah stood beside her husband, her voice firm and strong despite her tears.
Lily held onto her mother's shirt, looking up at her father with wide eyes.
Mark pointed directly at the open front door without a single second of hesitation.
Husband: Get out of my house!
Eleanor froze in place, shocked that her own son was turning her away forever.
Elderly Woman: Mark, I am your mother, you cannot treat me like this!
Husband: You hurt my innocent child, so you are no longer welcome here!
The harsh words echoed through the house, shattering the quiet family bond forever.
Eleanor looked around the room, finding no sympathy from anyone in the family.
She grabbed her dark purse from the side table with trembling hands.
Mark kept his hand raised, pointing firmly toward the open front door.
He stood like a wall between his cruel mother and his vulnerable family.
Eleanor slowly walked toward the doorway, her head hanging low in deep shame.
