Before she could make sense of the message, her phone pinged again.
“Don’t you want to know what happened at Donn’s painting exhibition?
Do you want to know the reason why you got hurt?”
The rapid succession of inquiries only deepened Stella’s confusion.
The incident at Donn’s exhibition had long been entrusted to the jurisdiction of the police. They had closed the case.
However, the tone of the sender hinted at a far more intricate narrative surrounding the incident.
Could there be concealed truths concerning that accident?
Stella considered it for a long while, wracking her brains. Despite her hard efforts, she still couldn’t come to a concrete conclusion.
At that moment, the other party sent her an address.
“If you want to know the truth, come here alone at nine. I look forward to seeing you.”
For a long while, Stella stared down at the text message, considering her options. Eventually, she rang Matthew.
If there was some shady business going on, it was a pretty big deal.
She needed to let him know.
However, when she dialed the phone, no one picked up.
Stella called Fernando, but his phone was turned off.
A puzzled expression crept onto her face as she pondered for a moment. Eventually, she reached for her mobile and plugged in the address provided by the other person.
It turned out to be an exclusive club.
