The heavy front doors opened wide as a cool breeze entered the room.
Ethan stepped across the threshold wearing a fine burgundy velvet suit coat.
Two large security guards followed closely behind his fast confident steps.
He stopped immediately as he saw the paper scattered across the marble floor.
His sharp eyes moved quickly from Clara to Elena kneeling on the ground.
Ethan: What in the world happened in this foyer while I was gone?
Clara rushed forward toward Ethan with her hands raised in dramatic distress.
Clara: Ethan, thank goodness you are finally back home safely!
Elena: Ethan, do not listen to her words until you look at this!
Ethan walked briskly past Clara without saying a single comforting word.
He knelt down beside Elena on the cold white marble floor.
He reached out gently to make sure the baby was safe and quiet.
Ethan: Are you two completely unharmed right now, Elena?
Elena: We are fine, but look at what she dropped from the box.
Elena handed the crumpled legal document directly into Ethan's steady hand.
Ethan unfolded the paper carefully and read the official stamp at the top.
His face hardened as his jaw tightened in absolute silence for a moment.
Ethan: Where did you get this forged custody contract, Clara?
Clara took two small steps backward toward the wide staircase steps.
Clara: That is not what it looks like, Ethan, I swear!
Ethan: This document attempts to strip my nephew of his rightful trust fund.
Clara: Elena pushed me and caused the box to fall from my hands!
Elena: That is a complete lie and you know it very well!
Ethan stood up slowly and looked at his sister with icy cold eyes.
The two security guards moved forward to block the main hallway exit.
Ethan: You thought you could steal his future while I traveled overseas.
Clara: I was only trying to protect our family business from outsiders!
Ethan: You were trying to protect your own selfish desires for money.
Clara's face flushed red as she pointed a finger accusingly at Elena.
Clara: You trust a simple maid over your own blood sister!
Ethan: Elena has shown more loyalty to this family than you ever have.
Ethan signaled his head toward the mansion security team standing near the door.
Ethan: Escort my sister up to her bedroom immediately without her phone.
Clara: You cannot treat me like a prisoner in our family mansion!
Ethan: Watch me protect my brother's son from your dangerous greed.
