The massive set of dark wooden exit doors swung open with force.
David rushed through the entrance flanked by two armed police officers immediately.
His face was pale with intense fear for his young son's safety.
He saw Victoria standing in her dark red gown near the exits.
She was holding the crying child carelessly while trying to flee quickly.
David: No!
David charged forward with an alarmed expression across his tired face.
He dropped to his knees heavily upon the hard marble floor surface.
His knees hit the stone floor with a loud and echoing thud.
He reached out his arms and picked up the crying baby tenderly.
He pulled little Leo close against his chest to protect him completely.
David: I have got you, it is okay now, my sweet boy.
The baby's desperate crying softened into small whimpers against his suit jacket.
Clara came staggering out of the hallway with tears running down cheeks.
Her left eye was badly bruised and swollen from the rough assault.
She dropped to her knees near the wall while sobbing heavily uncontrollably.
Clara: She hurts the child every time you leave this house!
David looked up from his son to stare directly at Clara's face.
He saw the fresh marks of violence across the young maid's face.
A sudden shock ran through his whole body as realization set in.
His jaw clenched tightly as intense rage filled his flashing dark eyes.
He held the baby firmly with his left arm while standing tall.
He stepped forward to confront the pale woman in the red dress.
David: How dare you touch my child and my staff members!
Victoria: David, please listen to me, she is lying to you!
David: Do not utter another single word of lies to my face!
The police officers stepped forward with heavy handcuffs clicking open loudly.
Victoria backed away until her back hit the grand marble pillar wall.
She realized her elaborate scheme was completely ruined before everyone present today.
