A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 

“I do regret it.” Liam’s voice was hoarse, and his eyes were full of aggression. 

Cynthia was speechless. She pushed against Liam’s chest and said softly, “Is this how you betray my trust?” 

“You just said yourself that there is no trust between us,” Liam repeated what Cynthia had just said in the bathroom. 

Cynthia was at a loss for words and wanted to kick Liam away. However, to prevent herself from falling earlier, she had wrapped her legs tightly around his waist, and now they were weak and sore. 

Liam’s kiss landed precisely, forceful enough to leave Cynthia breathless. 

After a long time, it was already dawn outside. 

Cynthia’s first thought as she drifted off was whether they could schedule such intimate moments for weekends in the future. She couldn’t handle this kind of intensity every day. 

The next morning, Cynthia was awakened by the ringing phone. Groggily, she rolled over, feeling sore all over. The phone kept ringing insistently, and she picked it up, pressing the answer button. 

Liam’s deep voice through the phone. “Lazybones, get up and eat. Don’t let your stomach starve.” 

Cynthia lay lazily on the bed. She replied casually, “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t miss breakfast every day.” 

A deep laugh came from the other side. “Be good. Get up quickly. Eat first, then you can go back to sleep,” Liam said. He seemed to be very busy, with occasional inquiries in the background. 

Cynthia said with her eyes closed, “Go ahead.” 

After exchanging a few words with someone nearby, Liam

After hanging up the phone, Cynthia stayed in bed for a while, the dy Maple upon liver the phone, “Remember to have your meal, and later, send me a 

quickly tidied up and went downstairs. 

Winnie brought the food to the table, and Cynthia ate it. Then, she reped what Liam had told her just now, so she took a photo and sent it to 

him. 

Soon, it showed that Liam had read it. His message came next: [Noted.] 

Cynthia couldn’t help rolling her eyes. 

It was still early after breakfast. Cynthia planned to go to the hospital since she bao the hospital for a few days. Although Gerald gave her 

plenty of time, it wasn’t good to be absent for a long time. 

Cynthia drove to the hospital. 

Seeing her coming to the hospital, Gerald put up her name temporarily. 

Now that the hospital had lost two cardiologists in succession, it was slightly understaffed. 

As soon as Cynthia’s name was displayed, many people came. Throughout the morning, she attended to both outpatients and inpatients. Perhaps these individuals knew about Arvin’s apology at the hospital entrance. They trusted Cynthia’s medical skills and specifically requested her to perform the surgery. 

One of them had a severe heart condition and had already developed multiple syndromes. Cynthia scheduled his surgery for the afternoon. 

At noon, when Cynthia had some free time, she realized it was almost the deadline for the will. She made plans to have lunch with Bernard to discuss the matter of the will. 

For privacy, she decided to go to the restaurant where Liam took her last time. 

Bernard arrived soon, carrying a briefcase. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes with glasses, presenting a typical lawyer’s image. 

“Mr. Gibson, Cynthia greeted with a smile, inviting Bernard to take a seat. 

The waiter began serving the dishes. 

“Mr. Gibson, what should I do if Mason still refuses to return the shares by then?” asked Cynthia. 

Ms. Larson, now that all the conditions for your inheritance have been met, he has no right to refuse. Otherwise, we can file a lawsuit, though it may take more time,‘ said Bernard.

Cynthia thought about Mason’s possible reaction. Having held high positions for so long, he definitely wouldn’t easily give up his shares. 

“Mr. Gibson, please help me write a lawsuit first, just in case,” Cynthia said. 

“Okay, I’ll send it to you tomorrow,” Bernard replied. 

They discussed the matter over lunch. 

Midway through, Bernard went to the restroom, and the door to the private room was left slightly open.

Cynthia didn’t pay much attention to it. Suddenly, someone forcefully opened the door to the private room and slammed it shut with a loud bang. Cynthia was startled. She thought it was Bernard who came back, but when she looked up, she saw a face that annoyed her. 

The person turned around and saw Cynthia. He was also surprised. “Cynthia, what a coincidence.” 

When Anthony came in, his face was clouded with gloom, but now was filled with a roguish smile. 

Cynthia felt a headache 

coming and thought, ‘Auroran is such a big place. Why do I keep running into him?’ 

She said coldly, “Mr. Clara, what do you mean?” 

Anthony locked the door and 

down next to Cynthia. “I haven’t eaten yet. Let’s have a meal together.” 

Cynthia looked at the locked door and refused directly, “Sorry, I have a guest today. It might not be convenient.” 

Anthony glanced at the two sets of tableware on the table and raised an eyebrow slightly. “No worries, you won’t be able to finish all this food anyway,” he remarked. 

“Mr. Clara, I do have a guest today. If you really want to eat, I can 

continue discussing the shares with him here.
