Marcus reached out and took the silver cane gently from Victoria's hand.
He walked over to his mother and handed it back to her with love.
Marcus: Are you injured anywhere, Mom? Tell me the truth right now.
Evelyn: My ankle hurts a little, but Clara and Brenda saved me.
Marcus: Thank you both for protecting my mother when I was not here.
Clara: We could not stand by and watch her get hurt, sir.
Brenda: She has been trying to get her hands on the trust documents all week.
Marcus turned back around to face Victoria with total coldness in his eyes.
Victoria took a small step back toward the open front entrance door.
Victoria: I am your wife, Marcus! You cannot take their side over mine!
Marcus: You are not my wife anymore after what I saw today.
Victoria: You cannot end our marriage over a simple misunderstanding!
Marcus: Attempting to harm my elderly mother is not a simple misunderstanding!
He reached into his suit jacket pocket and pulled out his mobile phone.
He dialed the private security desk located at the front gate building.
Marcus: Send two guards up to the main foyer right away.
Victoria's face turned completely pale as she realized her plan had failed.
She dropped her designer purse onto the wet marble floor in panic.
Victoria: Marcus, please! We can talk about this in private upstairs!
Marcus: You will not step another foot upstairs in this house ever again.
Evelyn: She had legal papers drafted by an outside lawyer yesterday, Marcus.
Marcus: I will have my legal team investigate every paper she touched.
Clara stepped forward with a small folder she found on the hallway table.
Clara: She left these papers on the table right before you arrived, sir.
Marcus took the folder and scanned the legal headline at the top.
It was an unauthorized transfer of property rights for the entire estate.
His eyes burned with absolute fury as he tore the paper in half.
Marcus: You were planning to steal everything my family built for generations.
Victoria: I deserved a share of this wealth after everything I did!
Marcus: You deserve nothing but the consequences of your greedy actions.
