Chapter 274
Chapter 274:
Candice didn’t know how to react.
She wondered how much contempt she would face from other women if she really were Milton’s girlfriend.
It was all because the man beside her was so desirable.
When the elevator doors closed again, Candice broke free from Milton’s grip and suggested, “I think it’s better if you wear a face mask next time you go out.”
Milton glanced at her and said casually, “Are you sure a face mask will help? Can it really conceal how good-looking I am?”
Candice couldn’t believe her ears.
How self-absorbed this man was! Normal people wouldn’t make such comments about themselves, even if they were true.
When they reached the 48th floor, Candice hurried out of the elevator.
She just wanted to get back to her apartment as soon as possible and get away from this incredibly arrogant and attractive man. She couldn’t stand him any longer!
The moment she reached her door, she quickly entered the password to unlock the electronic lock.
Unexpectedly, the door didn’t open, and the screen read, “Password incorrect.”
Candice gasped. Had she entered the password too fast?
Standing behind her, Milton watched with an amused smile. He thought Candice looked so cute, anxious to get home.
This time, Candice entered the password carefully.
Still, the door didn’t budge.
She covered her mouth and suddenly realized why she couldn’t unlock her own door. Milton knowing the password to her apartment made her uncomfortable, so before leaving with Milton and Bettina that morning, she stealthily changed it while they weren’t paying attention. But now… she had forgotten the new password she created!
She stood in the corridor, feeling helpless and humiliated. She thought carefully and tried several other passwords she might have made, but none worked.
Damn it! What did she change the password to?
If she couldn’t open her door, she couldn’t go home.
Milton roughly understood what was going on. Candice must have changed the password to her apartment because of him and now couldn’t remember the new one.
He approached her and whispered in her ear, “You can’t just change the password you often use randomly. You should know that.”
Hearing that, Candice instantly seethed with rage. This was all Milton’s fault!
How could he say such sarcastic words?
Candice stood outside the apartment, frustrated and unable to enter. She pulled out her phone, letting out a helpless sigh, and dialed the unlocking service.
The voice on the line asked for a lease contract, only adding to her sense of helplessness.
