Chapter 816:
Daxton stored the groceries in the fridge, filling the once-empty space. Carrie looked at the open door behind
him and reminded him, “Close the door and switch your shoes.”
“Wait, there’s more.” Daxton turned and brought in two more boxes.
Carrie's eyes brightened.
They were cases of cola and fruit juice.
“You carried these all by yourself?” she exclaimed in surprise.

“What a feast! I'm really in for a treat today.”

“This is for you.”
“You're only here for a few days. You didn’t need to getanything. Please, take it back,” Carrie said, sliding
the box back towards him.
Daxton pushed the box back into her hands with gentle firmness.

Daxton chuckled.
“I know you dislike eye drops.
This isn’t something you drop into your eyes.”
Carrie looked skeptical.
“Then how do you use it without dropping it in?”
“Just close your eyes,” instructed Daxton, standing and moving closer to her.
Carrie eyed him with a trace of suspicion.

“What do you think I'm going to do, drop something on your closed lids?”
That seemed reasonable to Carrie. He obviously couldn’t administer drops that way.
She closed her eyes and unexpectedly tilted her head back.
As Daxton leaned down, her sudden movement brought their faces close, within inches of each other.
