Margarethe's face turned completely red with rage.
Margarethe: YOU CAN'T ESCAPE!
Hannah: No, please!
Margarethe lunged forward to grab Hannah's leather bag.
Mark stepped directly between the two women quickly.
Mark: I GOT YOU!
Hannah: She... she tried to kill me!
Mark: Texas police are on their way!
Margarethe stepped back and tried to look calm.
Margarethe: It was just a terrible accident.
Mark: You tore her necklace and pushed her!
Margarethe: She lost her balance on her own heels.
Mark: The security cameras saw everything, Margarethe.
Margarethe let out a loud and icy laugh.
Margarethe: Those files have been completely erased!
Mark: The butler kept backup drives of the hallway.
Margarethe gasped in sudden shock as her eyes widened.
Margarethe: You wouldn't dare use that against family!
Mark: You were never real family to this girl.
The legal team behind Margarethe began to murmur softly.
They realized that their client was in serious trouble.
One lawyer stepped back toward the main entry door.
Lawyer: Margarethe, if video evidence exists, we cannot represent you.
Margarethe: Shut up and do what I pay you for!
Sirens began to echo from the front gated driveway.
Red and blue flashing lights brightened the marble room.
Two police officers walked into the grand foyer quickly.
Police Officer: We received an emergency call regarding an assault.
Hannah: My stepmother pushed me down the steps officer.
Margarethe: She is lying to steal my legal property!
Mark: I have the full video recording right here, sir.
Mark handed the small black drive to the officer.
The officer plugged the drive into his portable laptop.
The high-definition video clearly showed the entire argument.
It showed Margarethe grabbing Hannah's gold necklace tightly.
It showed the exact moment she shoved Hannah down.
Police Officer: Mrs. Margarethe Vance, put your hands behind your back.
Margarethe: This is an outrage and a total setup!
