Sarah helped Liam sit down safely on a soft leather armchair nearby.
She turned around and stomped straight up the grand white stairs.
Victoria laughed coldly as the humble maid approached her with purpose.
Victoria: Do not come near me with your dirty worker hands!
Sarah: You have crossed the line for the very last time!
Sarah stepped close and slapped Victoria hard right across her cheek.
The sharp crack sound echoed wildly through the huge mansion foyer.
Victoria stumbled backward into the wall in complete shock and utter disbelief.
Victoria: Did you just touch me inside my own house?
Sarah: Get your hands away from him and never hurt him again!
Sarah slapped her again with all the strength left in her body.
Victoria held her burning red cheek while gasping loudly for air.
She had never been confronted like this by anyone in life.
Victoria: Security guards come up here and throw this crazy woman out!
No guards arrived because they were all waiting out near the gate.
Sarah stood her ground firm like an immovable wall of justice.
Sarah: You are a monster who only cares about money and power!
Victoria: I am the lady of this estate and you are nothing!
Liam watched from the bottom of the stairs with big wide eyes.
He had never seen anyone stand up to his mean stepmother before.
Victoria lunged forward to grab Sarah's clean blue uniform collar fiercely.
Sarah blocked her arms easily and pushed her back onto the carpet.
Sarah: Touch me again and I will call the local police!
Suddenly the heavy oak front doors swung wide open downstairs with noise.
Deep masculine footsteps resonated across the polished marble floor below instantly.
Richard Sterling had finally arrived home early from his long trip abroad.
He was surrounded by four imposing corporate security officers in suits.
He stopped dead in his tracks as he saw the chaos.
Richard: What is going on here in my house right now?
The room went completely quiet as everyone turned toward the door.
