Vivian was in a daze for one afternoon, and only when the doorbell rang did she suddenly return to her mind. It was already five o'clock in the evening.
Thinking of Selina's words before she left, she got up from the sofa and went to open the door.
"Is that Mrs. Vivian, please?" With a cap on his head, the delivery boy hid his face in the shadow and handed a white plastic bag to her.
Vivian didn't think about it. She took it directly from him and was about to ask something. The delivery boy had left in a hurry. She was puzzled and said, "He's so in a hurry."
Thinking that he worked so hard, Vivian didn't care. She closed the door, walked, and weighed the bag in her hand. She didn't know what take out Selina ordered for her. It was so light.
Vivian put the plastic bag on the table and untied it a little bit, revealing the square carton inside, which was still cool.
She thought it was even stranger. Selina should know she was hurt and wouldn't order cold food for her. Is it something wrong?
In this way, Vivian had reached out to open the lid of the carton. This time, she lifted the lid without any effort, and she screamed in terror.
"Ah-"
Vivian jumped up from the chair and threw the cover on the ground. Her face was as white as paper, and her body was tightly attached to the sofa, as if she saw something terrible.
What was put in the paper box was not food at all, but a bloody heart. There was a dagger in the heart. Someone might be to cover up the smell of blood, some unknown powder was sprinkled on it.
A layer of ice was also put on it to keep it fresh.
The blood dropped on the ground through the crevice of the paper box, which looked so scaring.
Vivian thought was that someone deliberately played a prank on her first, and the person who made it was Angie, but before she had been sure of this idea, the nearby mobile phone rang at the right time.
Vivian was already extremely nervous. When she heard the bell, she was shocked again. She reached for the mobile phone with trembling hands. She didn't even see the screen and put it near her ear.
"Hey, do you like the present I gave you, Mrs. Vivian?"
Vivian heard the strange voice of the phone, her pupils were suddenly narrowed. He was the delivery boy who sent the takeout.
Her throat was dry because of nervousness, "Who are you and why do you do this?"
The delivery boy's strange voice came, "Why? Because you have a good man."
Man? It was not Angie. Six-ears' eyes to her flashing in her mind, she grabbed the mobile phone and suddenly tightened her hand. She tried to suppress the fear that was about to erupt in her heart and calm herself down.
"You are a man of Six-ears."
The man at the other end of the phone was stunned. He laughed more recklessly. He was not anxious at all after his identity was known. Instead, he said excitedly, "Our boss is right. You're really smart."
So she guessed right. It was Six-ears who did that. Vivian said calmly, "Please tell Six-ears for me. I'm not William's girlfriend. You've made a mistake."
It not only tortured her mind, but also her body.
When Vivian felt that she was about to cry, the phone finally was connected. Without waiting for William to open his mouth, she felt like she had found a person whom she could release her feelings to and she cried without saying it.
"Oh, William, you bastard, it's your fault. It scared me to death…"
The man holding the mobile phone at the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then he shouted loudly, "Old fox, your woman is crying for you."
Vivian hadn't responded yet. After a lot of noise, the mobile phone was changed to another person's hand. There came his voice, which was William's cold tone, "Vivian, what happened?"
Hearing the familiar voice of the man, Vivian's tears were even falling. It was hard to tell whether it was because of the grievance in the morning or just the shock just now.
She cried all the time and didn't speak, the voice of sobbing came to William's ear.
Hearing the cry of Vivian, William twisted his heart and asked in a deep voice, "Don't cry, what happened to you?"
Originally, several men were sitting on the sofa. They looked at each other when they heard William's shouting.
Is it going to be a red rain? The 'iceberg' couldn't even hold his ice face. Who is the woman on the other end of the phone with such magic power?
The rest of them turned their eyes to the only man who drank tea calmly. They whispered in the direction of William and asked in a low voice, "Hey, K, do you know anything about it?"
