Arthur knelt down on the cold marble floor in front of Elena and little baby Leo.
He carefully reached out his arms, taking his small crying son into his warm embrace.
Arthur: Daddy's here... You are completely safe now, my sweet little boy. I am so sorry.
He held the infant tightly against his chest, kissing the top of his soft baby head.
Leo slowly stopped crying, resting his tiny forehead against his father's warm charcoal suit coat.
Arthur looked up at Elena, tears of immense gratitude glistening in his tired, dark eyes.
Arthur: Elena... I do not even know how I can ever thank you for your incredible bravery.
Arthur: Most people would have kept quiet just to protect their own jobs and personal safety.
Elena: I could never stand by and watch an innocent child suffer, Mr. Montgomery. Never.
Arthur: You saved my son's life today, and you exposed a terrible fraud living in my house.
Arthur stood up slowly while holding baby Leo securely in his strong left arm.
Arthur: Starting today, you are no longer a maid in this household, Elena.
Elena's heart dropped slightly, wondering if she was about to be fired after all.
Arthur: I want to hire you as Leo's official full-time head nanny and estate manager.
Arthur: You will receive triple your current salary, full health insurance, and your own private suite.
Elena stared at him in complete shock, her eyes wide with total disbelief and emotional relief.
Elena: Mr. Montgomery... Are you serious? That would change my family's entire life forever!
Arthur: It is the very least I can do for the woman who saved my beloved child.
Arthur: You showed genuine love and unmatched loyalty when my son needed it most today.
Little baby Leo reached out his tiny hand and gently touched Elena's soft navy blue apron.
A warm, bright smile broke across Elena's face as she stroked the child's soft cheek.
The dark storm cloud hovering over the Montgomery home had finally cleared away for good.
Justice had been served, cruelty had been banished, and love would finally rule the household.
