Mark burst straight into the high key luxury white marble kitchen immediately.
Mark: Get away from my daughter right now!
Veronica turned around quickly with a look of utter shock on her face.
Mark rushed past the marble island counter without stopping for anything.
He gently lifted little Chloe completely off the slippery plastic step stool.
He pulled his crying daughter tight against his warm dark suit jacket.
Chloe wrapped her tiny wet arms around her father's thick neck tightly.
Chloe: Daddy, help me please! I want to stop!
Mark: I have got you, my sweet little baby girl.
Mark: You are completely safe with your daddy now forever.
Mark carried his weeping child over to the corner near the flag.
He handed Chloe to the trusted older housekeeper who ran inside fast.
Mark: Take Chloe upstairs and dry her off right this second.
The kind housekeeper held the little child close and walked away quickly.
Mark turned around slow and faced his shocked wife in the kitchen.
He stepped aggressively right into Veronica's personal space near the wall.
His face was red with furious anger and his fists were tight.
Veronica: Mark, darling, you are completely misunderstanding what you saw here.
Veronica: I was just teaching her responsibility and basic manners today.
Mark: She is a three year old toddler, you cruel woman!
Veronica: You cannot speak to me like this in my own house!
Mark: This is not your house and it will never be yours!
Mark pulled out his smartphone and turned the bright screen toward her.
He showed her the live security app showing the recorded camera footage.
Veronica's face lost all of its natural pink color in an instant.
She backed away until her back hit the cold white marble wall.
Mark: I saw every single thing you did on my mobile phone.
Mark: You yelled at a helpless baby and scared her to death.
Veronica: Mark, please, I was just tired and stressed out today!
Mark: You are going to pay for this very dearly, Veronica.
