While Victoria was packing her expensive clothes upstairs, David called his chief security director on the phone.
He ordered a full review of all internal security cameras installed throughout the large mansion.
David wanted to know if this was truly an accident or something far more sinister.
Ten minutes later, the security director sent the high-definition video footage directly to David's phone.
David sat down at his dark oak desk in his private study to review the footage carefully.
He watched the recording from the upper balcony camera frame by frame with intense focus.
The video clearly showed Victoria intentionally placing heavy boxes right where Lily always liked playing.
She had knowingly created a hazardous obstacle near the lowest part of the open marble railing.
When Lily stumbled, Victoria did not make a single movement to grab the girl's shirt.
She had simply stepped back and watched the young child lose her balance completely near the edge.
David felt a deep surge of fury burn through his veins as he replayed the clip.
He realized that Victoria wanted to cause a major incident to blame Sarah for negligent housekeeping.
Victoria hoped to get Sarah fired so she could gain complete control over the entire estate.
She had put a helpless child's life in danger just to satisfy her own selfish greed.
David saved the video file onto a secure drive to hand over to his legal lawyers.
He stood up from his desk and walked back out into the main marble hallway entry.
Victoria was coming down the stairs with two large designer suitcases in her manicured hands.
Victoria: I am leaving, David, but you will regret treating me like a common criminal.
David: The only regret I have is ever letting a snake like you enter my home.
Victoria: You have no proof of any wrongdoing on my part, so do not threaten me.
David held up his phone and displayed the clear pause frame of the balcony camera footage.
Victoria's eyes widened in absolute shock as she stared at the high-definition screen image.
David: The police are already on their way here right now to discuss endangerment charges.
Her face went completely white as she dropped the handles of her heavy suitcases on the floor.
