S31 105. Ava Gets Weird

Ava didn’t know how long she had been hiding. She didn’t dare look at the clock. She felt like she wanted to disappear from the world, to escape from the tough choices she didn’t want to make.

Unfortunately, when she started to feel better, someone knocked on the door. Ava had to wipe her face and check.

“Mrs. Melanie?”

“Have you forgotten me? Luckily I’m independent. I take my own breakfast, take my own medicine, and listen to audio recordings myself. What are you doing here? Are you sick?”

Ava hid her face in the shadow of her head. “Sorry, Madam. I’m feeling unwell today. So, have you taken care of everything?”

“Yeah, I even did my own hair this morning. Look! Isn’t it beautiful?” Melanie spun around and showed off her bun.

Ava wanted to smile but failed. “Beautiful.”

Melanie chuckled. “No wonder the servants couldn’t stop looking me. By the way….”

She handed Ava a small box. “I took the package from Barbara earlier. It turns out there is a package for you. So I deliver it here.”

Ava accepted it with a confused expression. “Thank you, Madam.”

As Melanie left, Ava brought the box inside. She examined it from all angles. There was nothing written there.

Slowly, her heart turned heavy again. A bad feeling loomed over her mind. After shaking her head, Ava opened the box.

“Gosh!”

Ava spontaneously withdrew her hand and stepped back. The hair that filled the box spilled out.

Ava knew whose hair it was. The color was dark brown and the texture was slightly rough.

Ava swallowed hard. With trembling hands, she poured out the contents. A photo paper rolled. Finding nothing else, Ava let out a sigh of relief. At least, she knew Eva’s body was still intact.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated. Ava answered the call silently.

“Good morning, Miss Connor. Have you received my package?”

Ava gritted her teeth. “Why did you send this piece of hair? You want me to put it in Jeremy’s food?”
