Panic spread instantly among the bridesmaids as Victoria frantically touched her styled hair in the mirror.
The heir loom brooch was worth over two hundred thousand dollars and held immense sentimental value.
Victoria: Where is my diamond cluster! Someone in this room has taken my custom piece!
Julian: Calms down, Victoria, it probably just fell under the vanity table in your dressing room.
Victoria: It did not fall, Julian! Someone stole it right before the main procession started!
Her eyes scanned the grand ballroom with growing fury until they locked directly onto Clara.
Victoria marched forcefully across the polished marble floor toward her younger sister with complete malice.
The surrounding guests stopped talking instantly, turning their attention toward the rising dramatic conflict.
Victoria: Search her right now! Honest people have nothing to hide from us!
Clara: What are you talking about, Victoria? I have not even been near your private room!
Victoria reached out aggressively and yanked hard on the side of Clara's elegant crimson dress.
The delicate seam ripped instantly under the heavy force, causing several horrified guests to gasp aloud.
Clara gasped in shock, quickly clutching her exposed bump and stepping back against a large column.
Clara: How could you do this to me in front of all these people?
Victoria: You were always jealous of my inheritance, and now you want to ruin my wedding day!
Julian hurried forward, attempting to step between the two women before things spiraled further out of control.
Julian: Victoria, stop this right now! You cannot treat your own sister like a criminal!
Victoria: Out of my way, Julian! She brought her cheap poverty into my father's mansion today!
Tears welled up in Clara's eyes as she felt the stinging humiliation of the entire crowd staring.
She clutched her torn red dress tightly with one shaking hand, feeling completely defenseless and exposed.
The wealthy guests whispered among themselves, taking out phones to record the embarrassing family scene.
Clara realized that reason would never reach her sister's cruel, self-absorbed mind in this heated moment.
She reached into her small silver clutch purse with trembling fingers and pulled out her smartphone.
Her hands shook as she dialed a private number that she had not called in three years.
She brought the phone to her ear while weeping heavily, turning her back on the cruel crowd.
Clara: I am calling my family... Dad, it is time for you to step in now.
Father: Stay exactly where you are, sweetheart. They are already arriving at the estate right now.
