Chapter 12 - Discovering Noelle Active Role In The Neglect

While reviewing the household management logs and smart-home server data, our forensic tech uncovered hidden nanny camera footage. I sat in front of the study computer monitor, watching video files recorded in the back playroom over the past year.
Noelle walked into the playroom on screen carrying a plain paper plate with a dry piece of toast. She tossed the plate onto the floor in front of four-year-old Liam like he was a caged puppy.
"Eat your crusts and stay quiet; your mother doesn't care about you anyway," Noelle's voice echoed cruelly through the computer speakers. On screen, little Liam reached for the toast with trembling, dirty fingers, his eyes hollow and defeated.
Another video clip showed Noelle actively instructing the house staff to ignore Liam's cries during meal times. "The boy is disruptive and ruins the atmosphere when Chloe's daughter is eating in the dining room," Noelle told the nanny on tape.

The nanny had tried to object, prompting Noelle to fire her on the spot without back pay. I sat frozen in front of the glowing monitor, tears streaming silently down my face as the full depth of their malice was revealed.
They hadn't just neglected him out of laziness; they had actively tortured and isolated him to punish me for working. I copied every single video file onto three separate encrypted flash drives for court presentation.
