Elena held out her smartphone so Grant could clearly see the high-definition security camera footage.
Three months ago, Elena had secretly installed a tiny Wi-Fi security camera above the kitchen cabinet.
She had suspected that Victoria was mistreating the child whenever Grant was away on business trips.
The video played clearly on the high-resolution screen with crystal-clear visual clarity and sharp detail.
Grant watched the video in absolute horror as the true events unfolded right before his eyes.
He saw Victoria pull out the candle lighter and hold the bright open flame near Lily.
He saw his daughter screaming in pure terror while backing away toward the marble kitchen counter.
He saw Elena brave house maid rush forward to push Victoria away and protect the young girl.
He saw Victoria strike Elena across the face with tremendous force during the heated altercation.
The video footage provided absolute, undeniable visual proof of who was telling the actual truth.
Grant felt a wave of intense anger and profound disgust wash over his entire body instantly.
He looked up from the glowing phone screen and turned his gaze directly toward his wide-eyed wife.
Victoria stepped back slowly as she realized that her elaborate cover story was completely destroyed.
Her face turned pale white as she scrambled to find new words to save her position.
Grant: You evil monster.
Victoria: Grant, I can explain!
Victoria: It is not what it looks like on that silly little phone video!
Grant: Don't lie to me!
Grant: I have the proof right here in my hands!
Grant: You can't lie your way out of this ever again!
