Julian called his personal family lawyer on his mobile phone right away.
He put the call on speaker so every word was heard clearly.
The lawyer confirmed that Elena had requested early access to the fund.
She had tried to alter the child's trust terms twice that week.
The lawyer had refused to grant access without Julian's direct written permission.
Elena turned pale as her financial scheme was laid completely bare now.
She had accrued massive hidden debts before marrying into the Vance estate.
She needed the money quickly to pay off her pressing creditors today.
Julian listened to the details with a heavy heart and closed eyes.
He realized that his new wife had married him for money alone.
She had placed his son in potential danger just to get control.
Julian looked at Sarah and thanked her for her constant sharp vigilance.
Sarah nodded respectfully and kept her focus on the young child.
Elena tried one last time to soften her voice and apologize smoothly.
She claimed she was under deep stress and made a foolish choice.
Julian held up his hand to stop her empty words completely now.
He told her that no amount of money justified endangering a child.
He walked over to the desk near the wall and opened the drawer.
He pulled out the house security tablet that logged every motion sensor.
The security system showed camera footage from the upper floor hall corridor.
The video clearly showed Elena releasing the stroller brake on purpose earlier.
It showed Sarah rushing forward to save the stroller just in time.
The evidence was absolute and could not be denied by anyone present.
Elena dropped her head in shame as the video played out fully.
Julian pointed his finger toward the grand front staircase exit below them.
He declared that their marriage was over as of this exact moment.
He ordered her to take her personal items and leave the property.
Elena realized there was no way out of this total exposure today.
She turned on her high heels and hurried down the dark hallway.
