Victoria: Grant, thank goodness you came home early!
Victoria: She attacked me!
Victoria: Elena suddenly went crazy and tried to hurt poor little Lily with a open lighter flame!
Grant: What is going on in this house right now?
Grant stared at the scene with deep confusion while his heart raced wildly inside his chest.
He saw his young daughter sobbing hysterically while holding onto the maid's grey work uniform.
He saw the red marks on Elena's face and the red streaks across Victoria's expensive silk robe.
Victoria walked closer to Grant and placed her hand gently over her own beating heart.
Victoria: I tried to stop her, Grant!
Victoria: I fought as hard as I could to save our precious little daughter from her!
Elena: Mr. Sterling, please do not listen to a single lie that this dangerous woman says.
Elena: She was the one holding the flame to your innocent child's hands moments ago.
Elena: I only stepped in to protect Lily from being burned by her cruel stepmother.
Victoria: She is lying to save her job, Grant!
Victoria: Call the police right now and have this crazy woman dragged away in handcuffs!
Grant looked back and forth between the two women while his daughter continued to cry softly.
He felt completely torn because he had trusted his wife for the past two full years.
However, he also knew that Elena had served his family faithfully without any problems for years.
Elena reached into her apron pocket and pulled out her small personal modern black smartphone device.
She unlocked the screen quickly and tapped on an app icon with a calm and steady hand.
Elena: You do not have to guess who is telling the truth, Mr. Sterling.
Elena: Look at this screen right now.
