The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 265

"How's your face?"

Riley froze for a second before realizing Sebastian was asking about the cheek she had been slapped on. How did he know about that?

Winona.

Yes, Winona must have told him.

"I'm fine."

"Let me see."

"Huh?"

"Lean in closer. Let me see."

Riley saw Sebastian zoom his camera in, entirely filling the frame with his face. His sharp, meticulously sculpted features, his perfectly swept-back hair, and his strong jawline were all vividly clear.

Whether in photos or videos, most people avoided extreme close-ups because it magnified flaws.

But this man looked like a masterpiece crafted by God. He was flawless. The closer the camera got, the more breathtakingly handsome he was.

Riley's heart raced. "No need. I'm really fine."

"Come here."

His deep, cool voice carried a faint trace of commanding dominance, an innate authority that made it impossible to refuse.

Riley swallowed nervously and leaned her face slightly closer to the camera.

"Closer."

The closer Riley got, the clearer Sebastian's face became. It felt like she was about to kiss him. She quickly lowered her eyes, not daring to look at the screen, and obediently leaned in a bit more.

"Don't move."

Riley froze. Even though she wasn't looking at him, she could feel his piercing gaze through the screen, analyzing her face.

It made her feel like an artifact being closely examined. Her cheeks burned.

"It's a little swollen."

Hearing Sebastian's words, Riley confusedly touched her own cheek. Swollen? It didn't feel swollen.

"It's red," the man added after a pause.

Riley was speechless.

Was it possible that she was just blushing because she was embarrassed?
