Victoria turned around quickly and sprinted toward the back study room door.
Mark: Do not even think about running away from this home!
Mark slammed the front doors shut and called the local police emergency dispatch number.
Mark: I need emergency police officers at my residence immediately for child endangerment.
Elena held Lily close while comforting the scared little child with warm words.
Elena: It is over now, you are safe with your father sweetie.
Mark walked toward the library where Victoria was frantically opening the iron safe.
She was trying to grab stacks of cash and financial documents stored inside.
Mark: How could you do something so evil to a defenseless child?
Victoria: You care more about her mother's money than you ever cared about me!
Mark stood in the doorway blocking her only escape route from the room.
Mark: Her mother's trust fund is protected for her eighteenth birthday party.
Victoria: If she was gone, that money would have belonged entirely to you!
Elena stepped into the study holding a small folder she found earlier in Victoria's room.
Elena: She was planning to file for a quick divorce next month, Mr. Harrison.
Elena handed the papers directly to Mark while keeping Lily behind her shoulder.
The documents were legal forms drafted by a shady divorce lawyer in town.
Victoria had planned to claim half of Mark's estate and the entire life insurance money.
Mark read through the pages with a look of utter disgust on his face.
Mark: You married me just to steal my family's entire life savings.
Victoria: You were too foolish to see what was happening right under your nose!
Sirens began to echo through the quiet Texas suburban neighborhood outside the mansion.
Red and blue lights flashed through the large front windows of the grand entrance.
Two police officers knocked heavily on the front double doors and entered quickly.
Mark: Officers, she attempted to harm my young daughter for financial gain.
The lead officer stepped into the study and ordered Victoria to put her hands behind her.
Victoria: This is a massive misunderstanding, my husband is out of his mind!
Officer: You have the right to remain silent, ma'am, step forward now.
The handcuffs clicked loudly around Victoria's wrists in front of everyone present.
She was led out of the mansion in full view of the neighbors gathering outside.
