Victoria: You... you hit me?! Arthur, I am your wife!
Arthur: You are a monster living under my roof!
Victoria: I am the mistress of this estate! You can't treat me like this over a maid's crazy story!
Arthur: Look at my son's leg, Victoria! Look at Elena's eye! Did they do that to themselves?!
Victoria: The maid is clumsy and the baby pinched himself! It happens all the time!
Elena: She pinched him because he wouldn't stop crying while she was doing her makeup! She told him he was worthless just like his biological mother!
Arthur's eyes narrowed into slits of pure fury as he motioned for the two security guards standing at the double doors to enter the hall immediately.
Arthur: Thomas! Marcus! Get over here right now!
Guard Thomas: Yes, Mr. Sterling!
Arthur: Escort this woman to the guest study and lock the doors from the outside.
Victoria: What?! You can't lock me in my own home! I'll call my father's corporate lawyers!
Arthur: Call whoever you want, Victoria. Your father's firm relies entirely on my family's investment fund.
Victoria: You signed a prenup, Arthur! If you divorce me, you owe my family twenty million dollars!
Arthur: That prenup has a felony abuse clause, you foolish woman. You won't get a single cent of my inheritance.
Guard Thomas and Guard Marcus stepped forward, grasping Victoria by her silk sleeves and pulling her up from the stone floor despite her loud shrieks.
Victoria: Unhand me, you filthy peasants! Arthur, tell them to let go of me!
Arthur: Take her away before I lose my temper again.
Victoria was dragged kicking and screaming down the grand hallway, her expensive high heels dragging against the marble until the heavy wooden doors of the study slammed shut, cutting off her voice.
Arthur turned back to Elena, who was kneeling on the floor, wiping tears from her swollen eye with the sleeve of her uniform.
Arthur: Elena, get up off the floor. You don't ever have to kneel in this house again.
Elena: I'm sorry, Mr. Sterling... I should have told you weeks ago, but she threatened to harm my younger sister!
Arthur: You saved my son today. You have nothing to apologize for.
