Chapter 3

Fiona laughed triumphantly after confirming Rachel had stormed upstairs to her room.

She was happy her plan worked out and she made sure Rachel heard Lucas' voice.

She wasn’t in a call with Lucas afterall. She had intentionally played a voice note of one of her conversations with Lucas while asking him those questions. Pretending he was giving her an answer.

She heard footsteps approaching her earlier and she knew it was Rachel cause nobody else was in the house.

Lucas has left for his office and the help was on a sick leave.

She starred at the bottle containing the pills and smilled, placing it back on the counter.

She assured herself that this was going to break Rachel totally. She was willing to do worse as long as it would wreck her.

Lucas promised her he would get a divorce once his father officially hands him the 20% shares of the perfume company. And his father was only going to do that if he remained married to Rachel.

But it seemed like forever to Fiona. Lucas father hadn’t done it and she desperately needed to get back with Lucas.

She heared the clattering sound of glass and left the kitchen. She knew the sound was coming from Rachels room and so she headed upstairs.

A loud knock on Rachels door made her flinch.

“Rachel"

She recognized the voice immediately.

" Its me Fiona, open the door.” Fionas voice pleaded from outside her room.

“I don’t want anybody in here you can leave" Rachel mouthed, her voice sounded hoarse from crying.

“Rachel open the door."

" What do you want Fiona?” Rachel struggled to speak, pushing the door open.

Fionas eyes roamed over her. She snorted at her scattered hair and her tear streaked face, satisfied with what she saw.

“Say whatever you want to say and get out." Rachel said, with her arms crossed over her chest.

“Can you atleast allow me in?"

Rachel made way and she entered. She starred at the entire room and then back to Rachel.

“Ouuu, Lucas is such a darling for getting you that." Fiona giggled, pointing at a waterfall picture frame that hung on the wall.

" You know when I was with Lucas, I always visited the waterfall on every of my birthday. And Lucas never failed to get that for me.” She chuckled.

" Okayyyy” Rachepl dragged furrowing her brows, confused at where the infirmation was heading to.

Fiona gave a lopsided smirk. She had expected her to break down. But she didn’t. Obviously she wasn’t moved by the memories.

She turned and faced Racheal, gave her a cocky grin like she had already won.

“I heared the clattering sound of glasses and that is why I’ve decided to come.” She shrugged her shoulders before continuing.

“Lucas and I have been besties since school days and lovers till date. Am sorry if it seems am taking him away from you. But we are so in love with each other, Lucas loves me." She giggled and rolled her eyes.

" I advice you let go of Lucas before he leaves you. Take your time to think about how shameful it would be.” Fiona said.

Rachel shook her head in disbelief. Telling her this was like striking an arrow to her already injured heart.

“I shouldn’t be telling you this Rachel but Lucas screwed me the other day right in your very matrimonial home. He fucked me so hard, screaming my name that he wanted more.” Fiona exclaimed and bursted into laughter.

She moved towards the door. “Well, I just came to see how broken you are Rachy. See you in hell."

Rachels eyes welled up in tears and she allowed it fall freely from her cheeks. Whe knew she had caught them in the act but Fiona rubbing it to her face hitted different.

She was done with Lucas. She concluded.

Her five years of marriage was about to come to an end. She wouldn’t live under the same roof with a man who cheated on her and worst still gave her pills that aided in her infertility.

“Am I that dumb?”She echoed in her head. How could she not have figured out the pills was ruining her womb all this while. Lucas had gotten the pills from a renowned HSG as he said.

There was no room for suspicion cause he never lied to her. There marriage had no issues all the years except from Lucas mother who didn’t like her.

She was still ruminating over the cause of event when her room door flung open.

It was Fiona again.

She starred down at the broken glass on the floor and stormed towards it.

“What are you doing Fiona?" Racheal sprang to her feet.

" And what does it look like?” she asked, brushed her palms into her hair scattering it then matched the broken glass so hard that it pireced her leg as blood began dripping out.

“Fiona!" Rachel screemed and grabbed her hand to pull her out.

“Let go of me!" Fiona cried shoving her hands off her body.

“You did this.”

Rachels hand suspended akwardly in the air.

“Wh…..at… do you me…an..” She stuttered.

Fiona clutched her ankle in deep pain as tears shimmered in her eyes refusing to fall.

“You saw that right?" She let out a loud piercing cry, turning her heads to the door way.

" She pushed me to it” she whimpered pointing at the broken glass on the floor.

Rachel followed her gaze and froze at whom she saw. Lucas was standing by the door wide eyed as he took in the scene. Fiona had timed perfectly.

“How could you do this Rachel?" Lucas growled and walked into the room.

" No” Rachel said quickly. " It wasn’t me”

" Then what happened?” Lucas glarred at her.

“She came in herself and stepped on the glasses. It wasn’t me.”

Fiona heaved terribly and tried walking towards Lucas but winced in pains. And now the blood were already flowing well staining the floor.

“I…… heared the sound of shattering bottle and decided to come know if she was hurt” Fiona sobbed. " I didn’t know she had lash out on me this way.”

Lucas frowned. “I don’t think she did it intentionally Fiona.”

Fiona shook her head, casting Rachel a sideways glance with a dramatic sigh. “She did it delibrately Lucas. She could have apologized if it were an accident."

Rachel opened her mouth to speak but no words came out of it. She was completely stunned and short of words. Right now, Fiona desrve an award for the best actress of the year because her performance was amazing.

Lucas stepped closer to where Rachel stood and gripped her hands forcefully.

“How could you cause your fellow woman to bleed. Isn’t that wickedness Rachel? You would have simply asked her to leave your room if you were so pained she came to check on you, not this." He yelled, pointing at Fionas injured leg.

He curled his lips in a devlish grin.

“If you try this again Rachel. Bet me, I wont allow you get away with it.” He concluded and turned to Fiona, wrapped his hand around her waist and led her out of the room.

Rachel felt her world crumbling before her. She lost one more person to another woman. First her father and now her husband.

She isn’t going to stand and watch her life become a mess.

She picked up her phone and dailed her lawyer.

For all she cared she is leaving the marriage. A divorce decree was what she wanted right now and in five days time she will be out of this marriage.
