Richard: Get out of my way before I have security throw you both out into the street!
Elena: You are destroying property and terrifying a child over nothing!
The podium smashes violently onto the floor, scattering wooden pieces near the terrified little girl.
Splintering wood echoed across the polished marble as guests jumped back from the wreckage.
Little Girl: Mommy! Mommy, make him stop!
Elena: Hush, sweetheart. You're safe with me. Don't look at him.
The little girl in the white dress cries hysterically and trembles in fear as loud crying fills the air.
Richard: Stop that infernal wailing right now! You're ruining the charity auction!
Elena: You're the one throwing a temper tantrum like a spoiled toddler, Richard.
Richard: I built this foundation from the ground up! I won't let some stray brat ruin my evening!
Elena: You built nothing except a mountain of debt and illegal offshore accounts.
Richard: Guard! Remove this woman and the brat immediately!
Guest: Is he really screaming at a child in the middle of a charity event?
Second Guest: Look at what he did to the podium. He completely lost his mind.
Claire: Serves them both right for crashing our anniversary and charity celebration.
Elena: Keep smiling, Claire. Your husband's true colors are showing for the whole city to see.
Richard: Shut your mouth before I make you regret showing up here tonight.
Can Elena protect the frightened child while enduring the hostile stares of the wealthy crowd?
