Arthur stepped into the grand ballroom flanked by two muscular security bodyguards.
He wore a sharply tailored dark blue suit and held a leather briefcase firmly.
His stern face turned instantly to shock as he saw the chaotic scene above.
Arthur: What on earth is going on here right now?!
Victoria: Arthur darling! Thank goodness you are finally back home!
Elena: Mr. Sterling, please help us up here immediately!
Victoria: Do not listen to her, Arthur! She attacked me!
Arthur sprinted up the wide grand staircase three steps at a time with speed.
His personal security team followed right behind him with their hands ready.
When Arthur reached the upper balcony, he saw Elena holding his crying infant son.
Elena's uniform was torn at the knees, and her face was covered in tears.
Victoria was quickly adjusting her ruby silk dress while putting on a fake smile.
Arthur: Why is Leo crying like this, and why are you bleeding, Elena?
Victoria: This crazy maid tried to steal Leo from his safe nursery!
Elena: That is a complete lie, Mr. Sterling! She tried to drop him!
Victoria: How dare you accuse me of such a terrible thing, maid!
Elena: She held him over the high balcony railing and let go!
Arthur's expression turned instantly from confusion to cold, terrifying rage.
He walked directly toward Elena and gently wrapped his arms around his son.
Little Leo immediately stopped screaming and rested his soft head on Arthur's chest.
Arthur inspected his baby boy carefully to ensure he had no physical injuries.
Arthur: Is my son hurt in any way, Elena?
Elena: He is frightened, sir, but I caught him before he hit the floor.
Victoria: Arthur, you cannot seriously believe this low-level servant over me!
Arthur: Shut your mouth right now until I finish asking questions!
Arthur handed his precious baby boy gently to the trusted nanny nearby.
He then turned his full attention toward his trembling, red-dressed wife.
Victoria took a step back as Arthur stepped closer with a dark expression.
The atmosphere inside the grand hallway became completely frozen and deathly silent.
Arthur: Elena has worked here for three years without a single complaint.
Victoria: She is jealous of my status and wants to get me fired!
Elena: I have no reason to lie, sir. The nanny saw everything too.
Nanny: It is true, Mr. Sterling! Mrs. Victoria snatched him violently!
Victoria's face turned completely pale as two witnesses confirmed the exact same story.
She backed away until her spine hit the tall cold plaster wall behind her.
Arthur took a deep breath, trying hard to contain his powerful rising anger.
Arthur: Why would you ever endanger my innocent baby boy like that?
Victoria: He takes all your attention away from me and my future!
Arthur: He is my son, you heartless and wicked monster!
Victoria: I married you for a life together, not to raise another woman's child!
Arthur pointed his thick finger directly into Victoria's shocked face with power.
Arthur: You have crossed a line that can never be undone again.
Victoria: You cannot throw me out! I am your legal wedded wife!
Arthur: We will see what the law says about attempted harm to an infant.
