The ballroom erupted into a frenzy of loud, shocked chatter and murmurs.
Victoria looked around the room, seeing her friends staring at her with judgment.
The dark wine stain on her shoe seemed like a symbol of her defeat.
Victoria: This is a complete nightmare, you cannot take my house away!
Julian: You drove away honest workers and treated good people like garbage daily.
Julian stepped toward Sarah and offered her his arm with deep respect.
Julian: Sarah, you do not need to wear that apron in this house ever again.
Sarah looked down at her black uniform and wiped her tears away gently.
She unclipped the white apron strings from around her waist with calm hands.
She let the cloth drop onto the polished floor near Victoria's silver shoes.
Sarah: My mother spent years suffering in silence while you lived in luxury.
Sarah: We never wanted your money, we only ever wanted simple respect.
Victoria took a step back, her expensive confidence entirely shattered into pieces now.
She looked at her luxury friends, but they all turned their backs on her.
Nobody stepped up to comfort the fallen heiress in her red gown.
Julian: Tomorrow morning, my legal team will file the official property split documents.
Julian: You will have thirty days to vacate the main estate premises, Victoria.
Victoria: You are kicking your own sister out onto the street for a maid?
Julian: I am holding you accountable for your cruel behavior after all these years.
Sarah took a deep breath, feeling a heavy weight lift off her shoulders.
She looked around the grand room with a new sense of quiet pride.
She was no longer just the young girl cleaning up other people's messes.
She was the rightful co-owner of the historical estate her mother helped build.
Sarah: Julian, I want to take my mother to the finest hospital tomorrow morning.
Julian: The family trust fund will cover every single penny of her care today.
Julian turned to the head house manager standing near the kitchen entrance doors.
Julian: Please escort Miss Victoria up to her room so she can pack up.
