Hesitant, she decided not to open it immediately. Given her previous experiences of being stalked, dragged into the woods, and receiving bloody photos, she wasn't about to open an unknown package without Leaving the package on her desk, she headed to the cafeteria for lunch. Before she could finish eating, a colleague rushed over, pale- faced, and said, "Aveline, you need to go back and check your desk right now." Aveline's heart skipped a beat. "What happened?" The colleague seemed terrified, unable to articulate clearly, " 1... I can't explain. You should see for yourself. It's really scary!" Frowning, Aveline put down her spoon and hurried back to her office.
She found a group of people gathered around or desk, slooking pale, others showing disgust.
"What is that?" "How could something like this be here?" "What did Aveline do to deserve receiving such a disgusting thing?" Aveline listened to the surrounding chatter, her expression growing more serious.

If we keep getting things like this at work, how can we even do our jobs? Aveline ignored their comments and walked over to the desk. She glanced inside the package, her face turning white. She quickly covered her mouth and rushed to the restroom to vomit. Inside the package was a dismembered cat. Not only dismembered but skinned, with its organs placed beside it in a horrific display of brutality.
Aveline vomited until there was nothing left in her stomach, and only then did she feel slightly better.
She returned to the office, her voice cold, "Who opened it?" Everyonem looked at each other, but no one spoke. Zoe sneered. "Ugh, why haven't you gotten rid of that disgusting thing? Are you trying to disrupt our work?"
Aveline took out her phone. "If no one speaks up, I'll call the police. Opening my package without permission is an invasion of privacy. I'm sure you don't want to deal with the police." Her words caused a stir, and everyone looked toward Zoe.
Zoe's face stiffened. "Aveline, is this necessary? So, what if I looked at your package? Why call the police? Did you put that thing in there to scare everyone? Otherwise, why wouldn't you let us see it?" SALE: 3500 bonus free fou you P X
