Chapitre 35: 35
Three Days Later Sharon looked around the passage cautiously before entering into a room. A maid was already in the dusty room looking so anxious. As soon as she saw Sharon, she heaved a sigh of relief and handed over a small transparent bottle filled with blue liquid. Sharon shook the bottle and asked,
“Is this the stuff?” Sharon asked and the maid nodded.
“How does it work?” she asked again and the maid looked around before replying quietly.
“You just have to add a little quantity of this liquid to her food or her drink. It will give her severe stomach pain for days that she won't be able to move at all.” The maid said and Sharon smirked wickedly and asked again
“Won't it give the food or drink another taste?” Sharon asked but the maid shook her head negatively,
“No miss, it's tasteless and it's doesn't change the color of whatever you are adding it to and also It won't kill if you use as I instructed.” The maid said and brought another bottle
“Miss Sharon, I brought the antidote in case anything goes wrong.” The maid said as she tried to give the antidote to Sharon but she rejected it.
“No, keep the antidote I don't need it. You can leave now,” Sharon said and dismissed the maid before looking at the bottle happily, then she set to work.
Soon Sharon was seen carrying a tray containing two glasses of coconut flavored drink knowing it's Felicia's favorite. But Sharon didn't follow the maid's instruction as she emptied the entire bottle of the poison into the drink she wanted to give Felicia.
Felicia was sitting down at the center of the garden reading a romantic novel on her phone when Sharon came to her but Immediately she noticed, she ignored her thinking she was about to try something new to annoy her once again and she was seriously not in the mood but to her greatest surprise, she kept a tray of juice on the table.
"How did she know I was thirsty? Felicia thought as she looked at the juice and realized it was his favorite fruit flavor.
"Okay, I'm confused, what's the occasion because Sharon does not just do something good without a reason" Felicia thought as she looked at Sharon eyeing her suspiciously.
“Sharon, what's this juice for? and what are you planning this time around?” Felicia asked but Sharon smiled and sat next to her.
“Why do you always seem to think I have a bad motive? I just want to make up for my past mistake and apologise for being mean to you and hence you will be getting married soon I don't want us to depart with a grudge between us.” Sharon said faking genuinety but Felicia rolled her eyes at her long speech.
"Okay, I've heard you” Felicia replied
“So, let's celebrate our new friendship with this juice”Sharon said
"What does she take me for? Does she think I'm a fool" Felicia asked laughing inwardly but Sharon immediately picked the juice on the right side and gave her the one on the left side and just as she was about to start drinking Felicia stopped her.
“Sharon, this juice won't taste good without cookies to support them so would you please get the vanilla cookies in the kitchen?” Felicia asked pleadingly and Sharon forced a smile. They both dropped their glasses of juice back to it's position and Sharon smiled again before looking at the juice and then left, but Felicia looked at the drink and smiled as an idea also clicked in her head then she chuckled mischievously.
Sharon smiled to herself as she took the plate of cookies back to the garden.
"Felicia thinks she's smart but I'm smarter than her. I know she sent me to get the cookies because she's still suspicious about the juice. I know she would have exchanged the juice by now because I've seen similar things happen on tv before but Felicia is so dumb" Sharon thought and laughed"
When she came back to the garden, she dropped the plate of cookies and studied Felicia's expression and she noticed that she was smiling more happily and freely than when she left the garden which is suspicious and Sharon then confirmed that Felicia exchanged the juice. Just as she was about to take her juice, Sharon stopped her,
“Licia I know you are suspicious of your juice but to prove that I didn't poison it or try anything funny, you can drink mine and I'll drink yours” Sharon said to Felicia who nodded and drank the juice in her presence while Sharon took hers. They both finished it at the same time and Sharon began to smile discreetly.
"Felicia is really a fool, she still ended up drinking the poisoned one even though she exchanged it" Sharon said inwardly but Suddenly Felicia began to laugh and Sharon looked at her wondering if it was the side effect of the poison.
“I know what you are thinking Sharon, but I never exchanged the juice when you left. I had a feeling you were going to think I exchanged it so I just left them the way you gave me earlier and this proved that you indeed put something in the juice,” Felicia dropped the bombshell and Sharon looked at her shocked.
Immediately, Sharon stood up and inserted her hand into her throat trying to throw up what she just drank but no matter how much she tried , the juice refuse to come up then Felicia stood up and gave her a haughty smile ,
“If you'll excuse me. I have to go check out my wedding dress.” Felicia said to her then she turned around and left the house.
Sharon looked at her detestfully and started feeling slight pain in her stomach.
"I need to find that maid to get the antidote. I can't believe I fell for my own trap but I'll deal with that bitch later. Sharon said them with that thought and a slightly aching stomach, she hurried towards the mansion.
Fyneface walked into the designer company wearily because he forgot to go on the day he was supposed to. He was pretty shocked to find Felicia there as well so he looked at his disheveled appearance and felt slightly guilty remembering the hot steamy sex he's been having in his office and the one he just had before coming over to the company.
"Hey, dont blame me because my secretary seems to be getting more seductive everyday and I can't resist tasting her everyday" Fyneface thought as his conscience kept pricking him but he instantly shook the thoughts away and smiled at Felicia, greeting her as well but she didn't even respond as she just scrutinized his appearance and narrowed her eyes.
“Why does it seem like someone just had lots of fun?” Felicia asked and her words made his heart nearly leap out of his chest in fear.
"Oh God, why am I even scared of her finding out, I didn't even get the chance to reply when she continued“ Fyneface said "Whatever, I don't care” Felicia said when Fyneface diet respond then he rolled his eyes inwardly.
"If you don't care then why do you ask? Fyneface aaked as he looked at her but she didn't get a chance to reply because a lady came out and said,
“Miss come to the room and try your gown to see if it fits.”
Felicia nodded and was about to follow her when Fyneface stopped them from holding her hand which made her turn to look at him.
“Felicia, I can come in with you if you want. Who knows, your hand may not be able to reach the zipper of the gown so I can be of great help” Fyneface said with a flirty smile to make his statement more charming and the attendant blushed while Felicia glared at him.
“Sir, save that for the wedding night,” the attendant said timidly blushing before pulling Felicia to go in with her. Felicia stopped before they could enter into the dressing room and came back to where Fyneface was standing.
He smirked thinking he already charmed the Felicia but instead of pulling him into the dressing room with her like he thought, she stepped on his shoe very hard and ran into the room and Fyneface immediately held his leg in pain. He was thankful to God because she was wearing flats and not high heels or else his legs would have been gone but still it hurts a lot.
Fyneface was still holding his leg in pain when his own designer came out and as they were leaving the waiting area, he turned to look at the room where Felicia just entered and he smiled. "Indeed, she's my feisty kitten" Fyneface said.
Sharon laid down on the floor rolling in pain as she held her stomach.
"What the hell is making those guards take so much time in bringing that maid here" Sharon asked as her stomach grumbled again and she shivered in fear.
"I feel like I'm going to die, why didn't I just follow that stupid maid's instructions instead of emptying all the poison into the juice. Sharon asked no one in particular regretting her actions
“Miss Sharon, the maid has already gone home the moment she finished her duties for the day,” One of the guards said as they came into Sharon's room.
“Then go and find her. You have to bring her back now immediately,” Sharon said wanting to shout but it only came out quietly due to the pain she was feeling then they guards bowed and left the room.
“I heard you were feeling sick Sharon, why would you fall sick all of a sudden?” Someone asked coming into the room and Sharon noticed it was her mum
"Oh no, It's mother, what do I tell her now? I can't possibly tell her that idiot outsmarted me" Sharon thought
“Mum, I ate something that upset my stomach badly. That's why,” Sharon said quietly trying to hide how much pain she's feeling but her mother laughed quietly and came to sit on the bed beside me. She pat her hair slowly and brought out a small bottle that looks very familiar to her.
Sharon gasped in pain as her eyes widened,
"Mum“ what are...you...how...when...” Sharon couldn't form a complete sentence as she wondered how the bottle of antidote got to be in her mum's possession.
“Sharon, I've always told you never to underestimate your enemy. I caught the maid who told me all you planned to do so I collected the antidote because I already knew this was going to happen,” Her mum answered and handed over the bottle of antidote to her which she immediately took and gulped it all. "Well, you've already taken all the poison so there's no harm in taking all the antidote but never underestimate Felicia again because she's smarter than you think,” Her mum said but Sharon couldn't reply because she had to go to the toilet and vomit all she has taken.
As soon as she was done, her mum helped hr back to the room, laid her down and after few minutes she began to feel much better than before.
“Next time, don't act so rash because I already have lots of plans that's going to work this time around,” Her mum said and moved closer before whispering the plans into Sharon's ears and as soon as she told her, Sharon began to laugh but then frowned again.
“Mum why do we have to wait until the wedding day, can't we start now?” Sharon asked her mum who shook her head negatively
“I told you not to act so rash and we need to be patient. But right now, I have to go and inform your dad about something because he's going to assist us alot with the master plan.” Mrs Esther said
“Mom, won't the Ken's family be angry when they eventually find out?,” Sharon asked a little bit worried.
“Leave it all to me. We will be killing two birds with just one stone,” her mum replied and smiled at her before she turned around and left her room.
Sharon's mum walked into the master bedroom in the mansion and dismissed all the servant and Mr Badmus was sitting on a couch apparently thinking of something seriously and he didn't even look up from the file until his wife called him over and over again then he sighed as he answered her
“Esther what's it this time around?” Mr Badmus asked and Esther sat beside him and looked into the file. She noticed it was about Felicia's therapy result then she smirked discreetly but Mr Badmus didn't notice.
“Her therapy results state that there's no positive improvement in her kleptomania now how am I supposed to marry her off with this shameful behavior.” Mr Badmus asked worriedly
“That's exactly why I am here. Why don't you let Sharon marry Fyneface instead of Felicia? so that Felicia can stay at home and continue her treatment” Esther said quietly stroking Mr Badmus body.
“But your daughter doesn't want to marry him and I don't want to force her. Moreover what do I tell the Ken's family since they have seen Felicia and approved of her.”
“I've spoken to Sharon already and she's agreed to marry Fyneface so her sister can stay at home and continue her treatment. Don't worry about the Ken's family, I'll take care of them,” Esther said slyly and Mr Badmus looked at her and smiled happily feeling relieved.
“I'm so happy you are my wife Esther and our daughter is so understanding. I don't know what I would have done without you two. All Felicia brings me is trouble and heartache but thanks for coming into my life.” Mr Badmus said as he hugged Esther but sadly he couldn't see the wicked smile and expression on her face.
As Felicia walked out of the dressing room she looked around for the troublesome Playboy but he was nowhere to be found so she heaved a sigh of relief.
As she was about to walk out, an attendant stopped her and handed over a bag to her. She was confused as she looked at the attendant about to ask her a question when the attendant spoke
“Ma, the cloth inside the bag is for your sister and she was supposed to come today for the fitting of the dress but she didn't come let her try it and send it back if it needs any adjustments.” The attendant said as she took a bow and left.
Felicia held the bag tightly and smiled remembering what happened today at their house between herself and Sharon as she walked out of the company.
As she walked out, Fyneface came out of his dressing room and went to hers to look for her, he even went to the garage but she was gone and he looked disappointed not finding her.
