Sarah stood near a large white cooler placed directly on the cold stone floor.
She wore a stunning blue sequined dress that sparkled brightly under the room light.
Her hands rested firmly on the heavy lid of the plastic storage box.
Elena stared in horror as she realized what was happening inside that dark room.
Sarah: Quiet down, you worthless little brat!
Elena: What are you doing to the baby?
Sarah turned around quickly with a harsh cold expression on her pale face.
Sarah: Step back right now if you want to keep your job!
Elena: I will not let you harm this innocent child!
Elena rushed forward without caring about her own personal safety or employment status.
She pushed past Sarah and opened the latch of the large white cooler.
Inside the box lay tiny little Leo shivering against bags of cold ice cubes.
The poor infant wailed pitifully as the freezing temperature chilled his small body.
Elena lifted the crying baby safely out of the container into her warm arms.
She pulled a clean velvet tablecloth down to wrap securely around the shivering child.
Elena: Get your vile hands off this child!
Sarah: You have no idea what is at stake here!
Elena: I am calling the police and Mr. Vance right this instant!
Sarah stepped forward with her eyes wide in desperate fiery anger.
She tried to grab the heavy cloth away from Elena's tight protecting grip.
Elena held the baby close to her chest and backed away toward the open door.
She ran out into the bright foyer shouting for help at the top of her lungs.
