Within ten minutes, multiple police cruisers and an ambulance arrived at the Vance estate. Paramedics immediately tended to Sarah, wrapping her in medical blankets and placing her on a gurney to check her vital signs and treat her facial injuries. Evelyn walked closely beside her mother's side, holding Sarah's hand tight and refusing to let go for even a single second.
Two police officers escorted Victoria out of the foyer in steel handcuffs. Her tearful pleas for forgiveness fell on completely deaf ears as Arthur refused to even look at her while she was led away toward a waiting police car.
Police Inspector: Mr. Vance, we have secured the crime scene and recovered the digital storage drive containing the hidden camera footage. Your wife will be charged with kidnapping, attempted extortion, and unlawful restraint.
Arthur: Ensure the prosecutor files every single charge available under the law. She will never step foot on this property again.
Arthur walked over to the ambulance where Sarah was being loaded into the back. He reached out and gently placed his hand over Sarah and Evelyn's joined fingers, his eyes filled with sincere remorse for the pain his family had caused them.
Arthur: Sarah, I am so sorry. I promise you that you and Evelyn will be fully protected from now on. The full inheritance and estate trust will be placed directly in your name tomorrow morning.
Sarah: Thank you, Arthur. If it wasn't for my brave little girl sneaking in here, I don't know if I ever would have seen the light again.
Evelyn: I told you I would find you, Mommy!
Arthur smiled through his own tears as the ambulance doors closed safely, watching them drive off toward the hospital. Justice had finally been served, and the dark secrets buried beneath the shiny marble floors were finally brought out into the bright daylight for good.
