Elena held baby Leo close to her heart, refusing to release her grip.
Victoria pulled at the fabric of Elena's uniform with reckless, desperate force.
Victoria: Hand him over before I fire you and call the police!
Elena: You tried to harm him! I will protect him with my life!
Suddenly, the massive front double doors swung open with a loud thud.
Arthur Sterling stepped into the bright sunlight of the grand foyer unexpectedly.
He had returned early from his meeting to surprise his family at home.
The scene before his eyes made him freeze in absolute disbelief and shock.
His young maid was kneeling on the cold floor, shielding his crying son.
His wife was pulling aggressively at the worker's uniform in a rage.
Arthur's face turned red with instant anger as he stepped forward quickly.
Arthur: What on earth is happening in my house right now?!
Victoria instantly let go of Elena and tried to change her expression.
She smoothed her crimson gown quickly, putting on a fake, tearful voice.
Victoria: Arthur, thank goodness you are home! This maid went completely insane!
Elena: That is a lie, Mr. Sterling! She dropped your baby!
Elena looked up at Arthur with tears flowing freely down her cheeks.
Elena: She held him over the high balcony rail and let him fall!
Elena: I had to slide across the floor to catch him before impact!
Arthur looked at the red marks on Elena's knees and uniform.
He saw the shaking, terrified state of his innocent six-month-old son.
Victoria stepped closer to Arthur, reaching out to touch his suit jacket.
Victoria: Wait, listen to me, darling, she is making up stories!
Arthur backed away from his wife, his eyes fixed with icy rage.
He pointed his finger directly at Victoria's defensive, panicked face.
Arthur: Do not touch me, and do not lie to my face!
Victoria: I was just trying to hand the baby to her!
Arthur: I installed high-definition security cameras in the balcony ceiling yesterday!
Victoria's jaw dropped in absolute silence as her entire lie collapsed instantly.
She realized every single second of her action was recorded on tape.
Arthur walked past her and knelt gently beside his brave young maid.
He reached out his strong hands to take his precious son into his arms.
