Chapter: 86

It was clear she was not being truthful.

Yet, oddly enough, her occasional silliness brought a smile to Caden's face. It was enough to lighten his foul mood.

Caden wore a serious expression as he bantered, "Oh really? Then tell me, where did I use it?"

Alicia's demeanor faltered. “Is it really appropriate for us to discuss this?"

Caden chuckled at that.

“We've already fucked twice. What's inappropriate about that?"

What on earth...?

Alicia glanced at the elevator's floor numbers, feeling as though each passing second stretched into an eternity.

Damn it! Now, she kind of wished that she had joined Hank during his sudden restroom break.

The elevator fell into silence once more.

Caden added, “If you're truly curious, just check the security footage at home."

Alicia was surprised once more.

"How did you know I have surveillance at home?"

Caden's face remained impassive. "Not only am I aware of the cameras, but I also enjoyed watching your enthusiastic efforts last night, Miss Bennett."

The warmth that had just faded from Alicia's cheeks appeared again.

She fixed her gaze on the crack in the wall, wishing she could transform into a cockroach and slip inside it.

However, reality wasn't that easy. She couldn't become a cockroach and had to explain with a composed expression, "I was drunk. It was unintentional."

A slight smile tugged at Caden's lips, hinting at a memory.

"It really caught me off guard."

Oh God!

His ambiguous words set Alicia ablaze with embarrassment.

With a soft ding, the elevator doors opened.

Caden stepped out, bringing the pointless conversation to a close.

Alicia followed him.

“Caden, we're both adults. It's normal for things to get a little out of control. Let's just pretend last night didn't happen," she suggested.

Caden remained indifferent. "What else is there?"

Alicia let out a sigh of relief.

But before she could finish sighing, Caden added, “However, three times is the limit. If it happens again, I won't be so accommodating."

Alicia lifted her gaze.

The sunlight softened Caden's eyes, but it couldn't conceal the intensity of his aggression.
