The Table Turns
The Table Turns
Arthur’s jaw tightened so hard that a sharp muscle twitched along his cheek line. He slowly turned his head away from the wall monitor and stared directly at his wife. His dark eyes narrowed into a terrifying, controlled rage that made even the large security guards take a subtle step back. Victoria began to tremble, her confidence completely shattered as she realized there was no possible way to talk her way out of the footage recorded by the camera.
Arthur: Do you care to explain what I just saw on that screen, Victoria?
Victoria: Arthur... please, it's not what it looks like! I was just testing her loyalty!
Arthur: You slapped an innocent worker and planted my mother's heirloom necklace in her bag to frame her for a felony!
Victoria: She was being disrespectful to me! She doesn't belong in this house!
Elena: I was only wiping the vase, sir. I never said a word to her.
Arthur took three long, deliberate steps toward Victoria, his presence towering over her. The wealthy woman backed up until her heels hit the edge of the staircase, having nowhere left to run or hide. The housekeepers who had been watching in fear now stood tall, their eyes filled with intense satisfaction as they saw the cruel mistress finally get caught in her own wicked trap. Victoria looked around the room frantically, searching for anyone to take her side, but every face showed pure disgust.
Arthur: You have embarrassed my name, my home, and my dignity today, Victoria.
Victoria: I am your wife! You can't speak to me like this in front of the servants!
Arthur: You are my wife for now. But that status is changing as of this very minute.
Arthur reached into his inner jacket pocket once again and pulled out his mobile phone. He tapped the screen twice and placed the phone to his ear on speakerphone mode so the entire room could hear the conversation. The phone rang twice before a sharp, professional voice answered from the other end of the line.
