David immediately called his personal divorce lawyer and the local Dallas police department to the home.
Two officers arrived within ten minutes, stepping into the bright foyer to inspect the video evidence.
The officers viewed the camera feed on the tablet and asked Clara for her formal statement.
Clara explained everything that had happened, showing the bruise forming on her own arm clearly.
Victoria tried to argue with the officers, claiming she was the real victim in the house.
Victoria: I am a respected high-society woman in this city, you cannot touch me!
Officer: Ma'am, the video evidence clearly shows you committing a physical assault on camera.
The officer placed Victoria under arrest right in the middle of the white marble entryway.
David watched in quiet satisfaction as the handcuffs were placed firmly on Victoria's thin wrists.
Victoria shouted and yelled as the officers led her out toward the waiting patrol car outside.
The news of the sudden arrest spread quickly through the Texas business community that afternoon.
David sent a short message to all five hundred wedding guests, canceling the grand ceremony completely.
He explained that the engagement was broken due to serious personal issues that arose unexpectedly.
Victoria's wealthy social friends abandoned her immediately after reading the official police reports online.
Her family tried to offer David a large financial settlement to drop the formal assault charges.
David refused every single offer, insisting that Victoria face real legal consequences for her actions.
He wanted to ensure that she could never come near his young daughter ever again.
Clara received a large financial bonus from David for her extreme bravery and honest protection.
David also doubled Clara's salary and offered her a permanent position living at the estate.
Lily felt safe again in her own home, knowing the cruel woman was gone forever.
The mansion felt peaceful once more as the heavy dark dark cloud lifted from their lives.
