Arthur Vance stood in the massive doorway dressed in his sharp light gray business suit.
He had returned home early after finishing his corporate business meeting ahead of schedule.
His face twisted into cold disbelief as he witnessed the chaotic scene before him.
Arthur: What on earth is happening in my home right now?
The loud authoritative voice echoed through the high ceilings of the sunlit mansion hall.
Elena instantly changed her expression from cruel rage to dramatic tearful terror.
Elena: Oh, Arthur! Thank goodness you came home right at this moment!
She ran toward Arthur with her hands covering her face in fake emotional distress.
Elena: Mary completely lost her mind and began screaming insults at me!
Arthur: Is this true, Mary? Speak to me right now!
Arthur walked heavily down the black and white marble floor toward the crying toddler.
Mary wiped a tear from her cheek and stood up tall despite her shaking body.
Mary: No, sir! She is lying to you just like she always does!
Elena: Do not listen to her, Arthur! She tried to attack me in front of Leo!
Arthur: Quiet, both of you! Let me think for one second!
Arthur kneeled down on the hard marble floor and gently scooped up his crying son.
He cradled little Leo protectively against his chest, feeling the toddler's rapid heartbeat.
Leo buried his small wet face into Arthur's suit jacket, whimpering softly for comfort.
Arthur: My poor boy is terrified out of his mind.
Mary: She neglects him every time you leave this house, Mr. Vance!
Elena: She is making up insane accusations to cover her bad work performance!
Mary: I have proof right here in my hand, sir!
Mary reached into her apron pocket and pulled out her small high-definition smartphone device.
Elena's eyes widened in sheer terror as she realized her terrible secret was ending.
Elena: Do not look at that, Arthur! She probably fabricated fake pictures!
Arthur: Hand me the phone right now, Mary.
Arthur held his toddler son securely with one arm while taking the phone with the other.
Mary tapped the screen to play the live recording saved on the cloud server.
The video clearly showed Elena yelling harshly at the toddler and pushing Mary aggressively.
Arthur's jaw clenched tightly as his face turned pale with overwhelming shock and anger.
The sweet loving wife he thought he knew was nothing more than a monster.
