Maya pointed her small hand toward the wall near the staircase.
A modern smart security tablet was mounted directly onto the white wall.
It recorded every single angle of the grand mansion in real time.
Maya: Look at the camera feed from the hall!
Victoria: Do not listen to her, Richard!
Maya: I saw everything from the upper landing floor!
Richard: What are you talking about, Maya?
Maya: Tap the screen and watch the replay video!
Richard paused and looked from his daughter to the digital screen.
Victoria's face turned completely white as panic filled her eyes.
She reached out her hand to grab Richard's arm tightly.
Victoria: We do not need to check anything, dear.
Richard: Stand back for one second, Victoria.
Richard stepped over to the high-tech tablet mounted on the wall.
He tapped the digital screen with his thick index finger.
The system beeped softly and pulled up the recorded footage from today.
He selected the exact timestamp from five long minutes ago.
The video footage played clearly in crisp high definition quality.
On the screen, Victoria was seen pacing with her phone out.
She placed the baby carrier balance on the very edge of steps.
She turned her back completely while talking animatedly on her call.
The baby moved and the carrier tipped down the landing stairs.
Then the footage clearly showed Elena sprinting like a professional athlete.
Elena dove across the hard floor and caught the carrier perfectly.
She absorbed the sharp impact with her own body on the tiles.
The video proved beyond any doubt that Elena was a hero.
Richard stood frozen in place as he watched the clear video.
His jaw dropped in absolute shock and deep horror at himself.
He turned his head slowly to look at his young wife.
Victoria backed away toward the grand fireplace without saying a word.
