Richard paused with his finger hovering over the emergency dial pad on his screen.
Richard: Lily, stay in your room while we handle this dangerous situation.
Lily: Dad, look at the big screen above the fireplace right now.
Lily pointed the remote toward the wall and clicked a bright green button.
The massive television display hummed to life, showing black-and-white security footage.
Victoria's face turned completely white as the video timestamp appeared on the screen.
Victoria: Turn that off immediately, Lily! You are distracting your father!
Lily: No, Mom. Everyone needs to see what actually happened two minutes ago.
The video played clearly, showing the upper landing near the master bedroom suite.
Victoria appeared on the screen wearing her fitted red dress and dark designer heels.
She looked around the hallway twice to check if anyone was watching her actions.
Then, she reached out both hands and deliberately shoved the stroller toward the stairs.
Richard gasped loudly as he watched his wife push the stroller down the drop.
The footage showed Clara sprinting from the lower dining room with raised arms.
The camera captured Clara diving onto her knees to save the tumbling baby girl.
The entire room fell into a quiet, heavy silence as the clip finished playing.
Richard turned his head slowly toward his wife with intense rage in his dark eyes.
Richard: Victoria... what on earth did I just watch you do on that video?
