Victoria walked slowly toward the desk with a cold threatening look.
Victoria: Give me whatever you just put into your pocket right now!
Elena: I do not have to give you anything, Mrs. Sterling.
Victoria: I run this house now and you will obey my orders!
Elena backed away toward the tall glass patio doors behind desk.
Victoria lunged forward and tried to grab Elena's small canvas purse.
Elena held the bag tight and pushed past the angry stepmother.
Elena: Stay away from me, Victoria, I know what you did!
Victoria: Nobody will ever believe a low maid over a wealthy lady!
Victoria grabbed a heavy glass paperweight from the wide wooden desk.
She raised her hand like she was going to throw the weight.
Before she could move, the office door was thrown open wide.
Marcus stood in the doorway with a stern look on face.
His family lawyer, Mr. Vance, stood directly behind his shoulder.
Marcus: Victoria! What in the world are you doing in here?!
Victoria dropped the paperweight onto the thick red rug immediately.
She smoothed down her green satin dress and put on a smile.
Victoria: Marcus sweetheart, I caught this maid going through your drawers!
Victoria: She was trying to steal private documents before she left us!
Elena stepped forward and held out the small black USB drive.
Elena: Mr. Sterling, I have the footage from the clock camera here.
Elena: It shows everything that happened at the top of stairs earlier.
Marcus took the drive without saying a single word to anyone.
He walked over to his desktop computer and plugged it in.
Victoria's face turned completely pale as she watched him open files.
Mr. Vance stepped closer to the screen to watch the video play.
The silent room was filled with the soft sound of video playback.
The footage showed Victoria clearly pushing the stroller toward the ledge.
It showed her stepping back while letting the wheels roll forward.
Marcus watched the video three times in total silence and shock.
His hands shook with deep anger as he turned toward Victoria.
Marcus: You tried to hurt my innocent son in cold blood!
Victoria: Marcus, please let me explain, it was not like that!
Victoria: I was overwhelmed and stressed out by everything this week!
Marcus: You deliberately endangered a baby to cause chaos in house!
Mr. Vance: Mr. Sterling, this is clear evidence of child endangerment.
Marcus pointed his finger straight at the front door outside hall.
Marcus: Get out of my house before I call the police!
