Chapter 1 Plotting to kill her
The music pulsed through the crowded room, a kaleidoscope of colors and laughter swirling around her. Roland stood at the edge of the party, his eyes scanning the sea of faces until they landed on her- Claudia, the host, and his sister-in-law. As Roland made his way through the throng, a glass of champagne was thrust into his hand, and he found himself face-to-face with Claudia. "Happy birthday brother-in-law" She wished him with a smile and hugged him. "Thank you" "Where is my sister, I haven't seen her" Claudia ask with enthusiasm. "she's upstairs". Roland replied.
Within a blink of an eye, Roxanne came downstairs as all eyes were focused on her, her red dress twirled around her shimmering in the dark but couldn't conceal her alluring beauty. All the guests glanced at her as if they saw an angel, "wow, she looks so beautiful" one of the guests murmured. While everyone was admiring the dazzling scenery, Roland put on a black suit and walked towards her with a bouquet. Every step he took, a series of thumbing gorgeous red hearts wafted up from the floor made of crystal glass.
He presented the bouquet to Roxy, bowed to her requesting to have a dance with her. Roxy smiled as she accepted the request to dance with him. They danced to the soft sound of piano masterpieces echoing across the hall that slowly warmed the hearts of the listeners. Claudia stood alone at the service counter, jealousy crawling all over her as she ground her teeth cursing Roxanne. "This bitch, she dares dance with my man, I will make sure she regrets it for the rest of her life," she said with a heart full of ambition. Claudia walked amidst the crowd, she squinted as she nibbled on her bottom lip, gesturing to Roland. He understood the language. "Thank you, everyone today is not just my husband's birthday, it is also our anniversary. I would also take this chance to thank my sister and husband. These two years, because of my ears I haven't been going to the company much, thank you both for taking care of everything" Roxanne expressed her gratitude to them. "Sister, though you're not at the company every day, you've always been the one making all the decisions.
"Yes honey, don't be modest now," said Roland. "Right," one of the guests interrupted Mr. Harland, "it's because of President Roxxane's hard work the company is prospering". Everyone cheered happily. "I have another announcement to make Roxxane said turning to her husband Roland. "Honey am pregnant" The once cheerful atmosphere suddenly became dull as everyone looked astonished as if it was the end of the world. Everyone started looking at each other's faces. "What? How is this possible?", everyone started murmuring because Claudia happened to tell everyone Roxanne was barren and she also caused her father's death just to inherit the multimillion property. Roxanne couldn't understand why everyone seemed surprised as it was her happiest moment. She couldn't hear what they were murmuring about unless they were talking in sign language. Claudia translated to her that everyone in the company was congratulating her but the truth was they were slandering her. Claudia clenched her fist as her heart filled with flames of anger, gesturing to Roland she seemed worried and angry at the same time. She took the initiative to excuse herself. She climbed upstairs waiting for Roland in a room. " Honey I think there is a shortage of wine, lemme me go upstairs and bring a few bottles to celebrate our unborn child," Roland said to Roxanne· "ok honey," Roxy said. Roland hurriedly climbed upstairs as if he was being chased by a hyena. He entered one of them as he already knew where Claudia was waiting for him. Immediately Roland entered the room he slammed the door behind him.
Immediately Roland entered, he noticed how angry Claudia was, deep frowning wrinkles formed on her forehead as she started exclaiming "I have already lied to everyone in the company that she is barren and u dare impregnate her? Huh? How am I going to explain this to everyone now, now that everyone is aware she's pregnant, how do we execute our plan now"?. They planned to kill Roxanne tonight making everyone think she committed suicide due to a heavy depression. But Roland has accidentally gotten her pregnant. Both were confused and worried about how to as the walking Helter skelter in the room. Suddenly Claudia stood still as she as a sinister smile on her face. "Yes, I have found a way," she said to Roland. "How" Roland asked agitatively. Claudia explained to him that she was going to poison the fetus in her womb and that would automatically kill her and they would finally succeed. And also lie to them the doctor's report showed she was barren and the child wasn't yours anyway. Roland finally relieved a wicked smile, happily hugging Claudia " you are such a genius
