Arthur sat in the back of his dark luxury sedan two miles down the highway.
His face turned pale as he heard the harsh shouting coming through his phone speaker.
He had asked Martha to call him if Elena showed any cruel behavior while he was gone.
He never expected to hear his innocent young son screaming in absolute terror.
Arthur: Turn the car around right now and drive back as fast as possible!
The driver stepped hard on the gas pedal and made a sharp U-turn on the road.
Arthur held the phone tightly against his ear while his heart pounded heavily inside his chest.
He heard the sound of breaking crystal and Elena's harsh voice making loud threats.
Betrayal burned deep inside his mind as he realized the horrific truth about his wife.
She did not love him or his young child; she only wanted the vast family wealth.
Arthur: Hold on Leo, daddy is coming back to save you right now.
Back inside the grand mansion, Elena grabbed Martha's arm tightly and pulled her back.
Elena: You are going to pack your old bags and leave this property right now!
Martha: I will never abandon this little boy to a heartless woman like you!
Elena shoved Martha away with sudden force, sending the elderly maid against the wall.
Martha gasped loudly as her shoulder struck the painted white wooden frame.
Leo wept loudly on the floor while holding his small blue suit jacket tightly.
Elena: Cry all you want because nobody in this world can hear your voice!
Suddenly, the massive front double entrance doors burst open with a booming crash.
Bright natural daylight flooded into the grand hallway as heavy footsteps echoed loudly.
Arthur charged through the open entrance followed closely by two uniform security guards.
His face was red with furious anger as his eyes locked onto his wicked wife.
Arthur: How dare you treat my family like this inside my own home!
Elena gasped in total shock and took two quick steps backward on the floor.
She had no idea her husband had turned his car around so quickly.
Elena: Arthur! You came back early... the boy was being completely disobedient and broke glass!
Arthur: Stop your wicked lies right now because I heard every single word live!
Arthur rushed across the bright marble floor toward his terrified crying son.
He bent down quickly and scooped young Leo up safely into his strong arms.
Arthur: Shh... you are completely safe now my sweet boy, daddy has you.
Leo buried his small face into his father's neck, sobbing with deep relief.
Arthur turned around slowly while holding his son, glaring down at Elena with pure fury.
