The sound of loud police sirens echoed down the driveway.
Red and blue lights flashed through the tall glass windows.
Victoria tried to run toward the back patio doors fast.
The security team quickly stepped in front of her path.
Security Guard: Do not make this situation any worse, ma'am.
Victoria: Let me go, you cannot lock me inside here!
Two police officers stepped through the open main doors.
Officer Miller: Mr. Davis, we received your urgent call regarding fraud.
Richard: Thank you for coming so fast, Officer Miller.
Richard pointed directly at Victoria near the side hallway.
Richard: She committed document forgery and attempted child endangerment.
Victoria: This is a simple private family argument, officers!
Officer Miller: We have a digital report and video evidence, ma'am.
The second officer stepped forward holding a pair of handcuffs.
Officer: Please turn around and place your hands behind you.
Victoria: You cannot put handcuffs on a woman like me!
Sarah: Law applies to everyone, no matter how rich.
The metal cuffs clicked shut loudly around Victoria's wrists.
She gasped in utter disbelief as her arms were bound.
Victoria: Richard, please do not do this to our family!
Richard: You destroyed this family the moment you hurt Leo.
Leo held his silver locket tightly in his hand.
Leo: Goodbye, Victoria, you will never hurt us again.
The officers guided Victoria toward the front stone steps.
She looked back one last time with tears of anger.
Her green diamond dress dragged along the hard floor tiles.
The grand double doors shut behind her with heavy weight.
Silence fell over the large high-ceiling foyer once more.
Richard knelt down in front of his brave young boy.
Richard: I am so sorry I did not notice earlier.
Leo: It is okay, Dad, Sarah was here to help.
Richard stood up and held out his hand to Sarah.
Richard: I want to offer you a permanent managerial position.
Sarah: I would be honored to stay and help, sir.
Richard: You saved my son and saved our home today.
The heavy weight of fear was gone from the estate.
A bright new morning began for the entire household.
