Evelyn held the heavy glass crest high above the hard marble floor without moving.
Her sharp breath sounded clearly across the quiet room as tension filled the air.
Julian held Leo tighter against his chest and stepped back to create safety.
Julian: Put the glass back down on the table, Evelyn!
Evelyn: You think you can order me around in my sister's home?!
Julian: This is my son's home and you are acting like a wild stranger!
Without another word Evelyn released her grip and dropped the glass crest down.
The thick crystal plummeted quickly toward the polished floor with incredible speed today.
A loud crashing sound echoed through the mansion as glass shattered into small pieces.
Sharp fragments skittered across the floor, stopping near the feet of horrified guests.
Women shrieked in horror as men took fast steps back from the sharp debris.
Julian: What are you trying to do?!
Evelyn: I am showing everyone that you cannot protect anything inside this house!
Julian's eyes filled with blinding anger as he handed Leo to Mark nearby.
Julian: Hold my son safely near the doorway right now, Mark.
Mark: I have him safe, Julian, do not do anything crazy.
Julian turned instantly toward Evelyn with extreme rage burning inside his broad chest.
His heavy rapid footsteps rang out loudly across the bright marble floor today.
He marched aggressively toward the woman in the maroon dress without hesitation now.
Evelyn backed up two steps until her lower back hit the wooden stage edge.
Evelyn: Stay back from me or I will call security immediately!
Julian: You threw a glass weapon right in front of my baby son!
Evelyn: It was just an object and you care more about glass than family!
Julian stopped just two feet away from her with his fists clenched tight.
His face was red with fury as he pointed a strong finger at her.
Julian: You crossed every boundary today and your game is completely over now!
Evelyn: You have no power to kick me out of my sister's home!
Julian: I have full legal power as the main owner of this entire property!
The crowd gasped as Julian pulled a set of keys from his jacket pocket.
He threw the keys onto the stage right beside her designer leather purse.
Julian: Security will walk you out to the gate within five short minutes!
Evelyn: You cannot treat me like a common criminal in front of everyone!
Julian: You acted like one the moment you threatened my son's peaceful home!
