David sat beside Maya on the sofa while holding a glass of warm water for her.
He turned to his chief security officer who was standing nearby in the hall.
David: Pull up the hidden security footage from the hallway cameras immediately.
Victoria's face turned completely white as she heard the order given to the guard.
Victoria: Hidden cameras?! You installed security cameras inside the house?!
David: I installed them last month for general security, but today they captured the truth.
surrounding security team members pulled out a tablet computer showing live recordings.
The video clearly showed Victoria taking away Maya's toys and yelling at her over past weeks.
It showed how Victoria systematically threatened the girl whenever David left the house.
The proof was unmistakable and recorded in crisp video with crystal clear audio sound.
David: You tried to break my daughter's spirit for your own twisted control.
Victoria: David, please... I was just stressed from running this huge house!
David: Do not make excuses for mistreating a defenseless child in her own home!
David called his chief lawyer on speakerphone right in front of everyone present.
David: Mark, prepare immediate divorce papers and a restraining order against Victoria.
Lawyer: I will have the court documents drafted and signed within two hours, David.
David: Make sure she is completely removed from my estate and trust fund immediately.
Victoria tried to step forward, but the security guards blocked her path firmly.
Victoria: You can't ruin my social standing like this over a child's complaint!
David: You ruined yourself the moment you laid an unkind hand on my daughter.
Maya looked up at her father with eyes that were finally free of fear.
Maya: Thank you for believing me, Daddy. I was so lonely without you.
David: I will never leave you alone with anyone ever again, Maya.
The front door opened again as local police officers arrived at the entrance hall.
David had requested their presence to ensure Victoria was safely escorted off the grounds.
The lead officer stepped into the grand foyer while looking at the tablet evidence.
Officer: Ma'am, you need to step outside with us right now without causing trouble.
Victoria: This is a misunderstanding! I am the mistress of this mansion!
Officer: The video evidence shows clear child endangerment, so walk quietly please.
