Meanwhile, Nool had just finished parking his car when he saw her message
There were no messages other than the time he sent her the architectural design information and she thanked him,
He remembered fixing her wiring last time, not just repairing the damage but also making sure there were no lingering issues. Technically, she shouldn’t have any more problems anytime
He had minced in electrical wiring during his degree, so his skills should be fine.
He was still feeling puzzled over when the teached the 16th floor. He walked over and knocked on Whitey’s door
A moment later, the door opened and saw nothing but darkness inside.
White stood in the doorway and said awkwardly, “You’re here,” she said awkwardly.
She was too nervous, so she simply blabbered something
“You’re blocking the way. How am I supposed to check things out?” he replied coldy.

“The wiring looks fine–seems like their just tripped,” Noel concluded.
However, he felt confused and added, “This building should easily support several high–power usage appliances at once.”
Generally, there shouldn’t be a power trip if the appliances are used under normal circumstances. He knew he had already resolved any potential wiring problems last time and had even

Whitney’s gaze darted away. She avoided his eyes as she scratched her head. “Just, you know, the usual stuff. Nothing special. I don’t know why it suddenly went out like that Even in the dim light spilling in from the hallway, Whitney felt Noel’s are on her
She came up with an idea at the very last minute to turn on every high–powered appliance in her place, hoping it would cut the power. With a knowledge of cries from he architecture dies, she knew that overloading the line would likely trip the breaker.
Coats Heights was a luutious apartment with a circuit design that was safer and better than average.
Without hesitation, she had turned on the heater, water heater, stovetop, and oven. Within seconds, way light went dark. And just as she had hoped, Noel knocked at the door right after Noel watched her carefully and checked each appliance before heading back to the breaker,
After a few quick adjustments, the lights flickered back on
“Thanks Sorry for the trouble. Whitney breathed a sigh of relief. Then, the graded is from the table offered to him

Whitney poured in frustration. At least he didn’t figure out anything, and she managed to get off.
Back at his apartment, Noel hung his neat and frowned with suspicion
While he was checking the appliances, he noticed that the beater was still warm. The oven and stovetop had some residual heat, and even the water heater was hot. These signs that they had recently been turned off.
Whitney was an architecture student and a top are at that could she really be unaware of such basic knowledge!
He didn’t buy it. That he wondered what she was trying to accomplish by messing with her power to tip the breaker.
