Julian turned his full attention back to Sarah, extending a warm hand to help the young mother up from the cold floor. He gently picked up little Lily's dropped toy train and handed it back to the small child with a soft, reassuring smile. Julian spoke loudly so every guest in the mansion could hear every word clearly. He announced that Sarah's employment as a basic house maid was officially over starting that exact minute. Victoria smirked briefly, thinking Julian was still going to fire her, but her smile was quickly destroyed by his next words. Julian stated that Sarah was immediately appointed as the head personal caregiver and household manager for the Vance estate, complete with a six-figure salary, full healthcare benefits, and a guaranteed trust fund for little Lily's future education. Sarah stared at him with wide eyes, tears of pure joy overflowing as she processed the life-changing offer. She held her daughter close, thanking Julian and Eleanor repeatedly with immense gratitude. Julian then turned his eyes back to Victoria, his voice dropping into a stern tone that carried immense legal weight. He informed Victoria that her family's pending business partnership with the Vance firm was officially canceled immediately. Furthermore, he stated that the company's divorce lawyer and legal team would be filing a formal lawsuit against her for physical assault and verbal harassment on behalf of Sarah. Victoria gasped for air, her hands shaking uncontrollably as she looked around the room for support. None of the guests would look at her; many turned their backs in complete disgust at her previous behavior. Security guards approached Victoria swiftly, politely but firmly asking her to leave the premises right away before the local police arrived to process the report. Victoria was escorted down the long marble hallway, her stained red dress dragging behind her as the heavy front doors slammed shut behind her, ending her influence forever.
