Mark sat in his quiet luxury sedan feeling an unexplainable bad feeling.
He had a strange urge to turn the car around and go home early.
The business meeting had finished two hours earlier than he had planned.
He pulled his car up the long driveway of the gated family estate.
The house was eerily silent as he unlocked the huge front doors.
Suddenly he heard loud screaming coming from the central grand hallway.
He pushed the heavy double doors open with a sharp and sudden push.
The sight before his eyes made his heart stop instantly in horror.
Victoria was dragging little Emma while the baby cried out in pain.
Elena was running frantically toward the camera while pleading for help.
Mark did not hesitate for even a single second to take action.
He sprinted down the long checkered floor with fast and loud footsteps.
Mark: What are you doing to my daughter!
Victoria: Mark, you were not supposed to be home today!
Mark dropped straight to his knees on the hard stone floor.
He scooped baby Emma tightly into his arms with urgent protective care.
The little girl buried her small face into his warm grey suit.
Mark cradled her tightly as tears of relief filled his angry eyes.
Mark: Are you okay, little one?
Elena dropped to her knees right beside Mark on the floor.
She held her bruised cheek while tears rolled down her face.
Maid Elena: She hurts the baby every time you leave!
Mark looked at Elena's bruised face and then back at Victoria.
His face contorted into pure rage as the terrible truth hit him.
Everything he thought he knew about his new wife was a lie.
