After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 233 Do You Want to Be Punished Again?

During this time, Xander had been kissing Isabel without asking for her permission.

A moment later, he pulled away from her lips and gazed into her eyes, which were still cloudy with mist.

"If you move again, I'll punish you."

Although Isabel couldn't see his warm expression, she could sense his gaze through the deep tone of his voice.

She stayed still. First, because if she moved while he was holding her with one hand, he might lose his grip and drop her, which would be disastrous.

Second, being unable to see made her feel vulnerable, like prey on a cutting board-moving would only show she was welcoming more attention.

With those thoughts in mind, Isabel obediently allowed Xander to wash her eyes. Afterward, the sting faded a little.

The next morning, as Samuel stepped out of his room, he noticed Isabel's door was open, and Xander was leading her downstairs.

"Your eyes still hurt?" Samuel asked, noticing her condition.

After last night's events, when Max called Xander for help, Samuel had been nearby.

Isabel's vision had improved significantly. Yesterday, she could only see shadows, but now, she could make out the shapes of objects, though her sight was still blurry-like someone with high myopia. "Another night of rest should do it," Isabel said.

"Be careful on the stairs," Xander said, pulling her closer to him and guiding her carefully as they descended.

Samuel stood frozen at the top of the stairs, completely stunned. Isabel only had some discomfort in her eyes, yet Xander was treating her as though she were nine months pregnant. He might as well just carry her. Amused by the sight, Samuel smirked and sat down at the dining table.

At breakfast, Isabel looked at the food in front of her. Her vision was still blurry, but it didn't stop her from trying to feed herself.

As she pondered, Xander scooped some caviar and held it out to her. "Open your mouth."

Isabel hesitated for a moment.

Samuel remained silent.
