Mark felt his heart pounding heavily against his ribs in complete anger.
He looked at Elena with eyes full of deep shock and sudden distrust.
Mark: How could you endanger my little girl after everything we gave you?
Elena: Sir, I swear on my life that I never touched that stroller!
Victoria: She is lying to save her job, Mark!
Victoria: She has always been jealous of my place in this home!
Elena held the crying baby tighter while tears ran down her own cheeks.
She could not believe that Victoria was framing her for such a terrible act.
Mark took a step toward Elena to take baby Lily back into his arms.
The house fell into a tense silence while Victoria smiled secretly behind Mark's back.
She thought her wicked plan to eliminate Elena had worked out perfectly.
Victoria wanted to replace all the old staff with people who obeyed her orders.
She also wanted full control over the family money and the child's life insurance policy.
Suddenly shoes clattered fast against the marble floor above them.
Chloe ran down the grand staircase while holding her smartphone high in the air.
Chloe: Dad, wait! Stop listening to her lies right now!
Mark turned toward his eldest daughter with a look of deep confusion.
Mark: Chloe, stay up there! This is not a situation for children!
Chloe: No, Dad! You have to look at what I recorded on my phone!
Victoria's fake tears instantly stopped as her body froze completely solid.
Her eyes went wide with sudden terror as Chloe approached her father.
Victoria: Chloe, put that toy away! Your father is handling this serious matter!
Chloe: Shut up, Victoria! Dad, look at this video right now!
Chloe pressed the play button on her phone screen and held it up to Mark.
The audio playback sound echoed clearly through the vast marble entrance hall.
The video clearly showed Victoria standing alone near the top of the staircase.
It captured the exact second Victoria reached out and shoved the heavy stroller hard.
The video also showed Elena sprinting across the room to save the infant's life.
Mark stared at the small screen while his face turned completely pale with fury.
His hands began to shake violently as the full truth hit his mind.
He looked up from the phone and stared directly into Victoria's eyes.
Mark: You lied to me! You tried to kill my baby!
Victoria: Mark, no! It was an accident, I slipped!
Chloe: You did not slip! Everyone can see you pushed it on purpose!
Mark: Get away from my family right now!
Victoria backed away until her spine hit the sharp edge of the marble pillar.
The warm atmosphere of the luxury home was replaced by cold pure anger.
