Chapter 163: He Stole Away My Breath

"Here, this cold compress will help you with that swelling." Eshan placed the cold compress wrapped in a thin towel over my eyes.

Involuntarily, I squeezed my eyes as I felt the cold sensation. I wasn't prepared for this once I came out of the washroom. Eshan did not give me a slight chance to be prepared for his sudden onslaught of care and love.

"Easy," Eshan hissed when my neck shrank back.

"Yeah, should have thought before putting it. A little warning would have been better," I sarcastically replied, moving away from his hand that was pressing that cold compress against my eyes.

"Oh." Eshan's face contorted to the one of grimace as realization dawned him.

"Oh."

I then took notice of his distracted face. Taking away the compress from his hand, I placed it gently on my left eye, observing him from the right one.
