An hour later, sharp high heels clicked loudly down the quiet corridor.
Victoria, Arthur's wealthy stepmother, marched directly toward the room door.
She wore a dark designer suit and carried a sharp leather briefcase.
Two lawyers in expensive gray suits followed closely behind her steps.
Clara stepped out into the hallway and stood right in front.
Victoria: Move aside, nurse; we are here to inspect the infant.
Nurse Clara: This nursery area is currently restricted to essential visitors only.
Victoria: I am his grandmother and I hold legal temporary power!
Nurse Clara: Your power ends where this child's health begins, ma'am.
Victoria glared at Clara with cold and narrow eyes of disapproval.
She tried to push past the nurse to reach the door handle.
Arthur stepped out of the room and closed the door behind him.
He held a single page of white medical paper in his hand.
Arthur: You do not have any right to be here, Victoria.
Victoria: Arthur, the baby needs proper institutional care immediately!
Arthur: My son just finished his third full bottle of the day.
Victoria froze in her tracks, her face turning pale with shock.
She looked at the signed medical clearance form in Arthur's hand.
Doctor Vance walked up the hallway with two hospital security guards.
Doctor Vance: Ma'am, you are creating a disturbance in a private ward.
Victoria: This nurse is interfering with family legal matters of estate!
Doctor Vance: Nurse Clara saved that baby's life through exceptional care.
Arthur stepped right in front of his stepmother with firm posture.
Arthur: My estate lawyer just filed a full restraining order against you.
Victoria: You cannot cut me out of the family trust fund!
Arthur: Watch me protect my child from your greed, starting today.
The security officers stepped forward and gestured toward the exit doors.
Victoria realized her plan had completely failed in front of everyone.
She turned around on her heels and rushed toward the elevators.
Her lawyers followed her in silent defeat down the long hall.
The entire floor fell back into a peaceful and quiet calm.
Arthur looked at Clara and took a deep breath of relief.
