A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession novel Chapter 242

Chapter 242 

Liam had no choice but to eat with his head down silently while occasionally putting some food into Cynthia’s bowl and peeling shrimp for her. 

David would praise his every action, for fear that Hallet might think his grandson mistreated Cynthia. 

This went on for so long that Liam hesitated when he wanted to put food into Cynthia’s bowl again. 

Meanwhile, Cynthia felt sad and funny when she noticed Liam’s unease. 

As for Hallet, he, too, felt uneasy even though he was being flattered by David. In order not to disgrace Cynthia, he had tried his best to act calm, sitting upright and proper with a polite smile. But at this moment, he had run out of things to say to David, merely nodding at everything the latter said repeatedly. 

Since his retirement, David had been living a leisurely and carefree life and had never put so much effort into hosting guests. After dinner, he suggested that they stay overnight, 

Cynthia agreed, thinking that she would have to check on David’s health anyway. Hallet and Liam followed her decision, too, 

And so, Hallet was given the guest room. As soon as he entered the room, the man revealed his true colors. He sighed with relief and threw himself on the soft bed. Tim exhausted. This is way more tiring than being in a fight.” 

Cynthia leaned against the door frame, smiling. “Just be yourself. Why did you act like an old man?” 

Hearing this, Hallet sprung up from the bed. “I can’t act like my normal self. Mr. Sullivan sees me as your family. I can’t embarrass you.” 

It was rare for Hallet to be in such a formal demeanor. Cynthia was moved, knowing that he had done it for her sake. She walked over and massaged his shoulders. “I know you’re the best. I will make it up to you in the future.” 

Hallet was intrigued. “How so?” 

*I’ll agree to any 

He put forward his long–prepared request directly. “I noticed Queena’s brother is not an easy person 

request you make as long as it is not too much” Cynthia increased her pressure, and Hallet felt his tense muscles relax 

sy person to talk to 

1. to. I hope you can help me then.” 

“No,” Cynthia refused without hesitation. “You have to do this on your own. If 1 help you and Vincent finds out, and if he doesn’t approve of the two of you, Liam will find himself caught in the middle. Think of another request,” 

Hallet’s face darkened. He buried his face in the quilt and muttered, “You weren’t sincere when you said you wanted to make it up to me. Leave. I’ll think of something myself if you won’t help me 

Cynthia turned and bumped into a man’s chest when she left Hallet’s room. The tip of her nose hurt, and she almost cried. The woman covered her nose and asked with tears in her eyes, “How long have you been standing here?” 

“Since you went into his room. Liam looked at her with an indifferent expression. 

“Why didn’t you go in?” Cynthia asked. 

“I don’t want to.” He spoke haltingly before saying, “I have a sore back.” 

Cynthia was confused. Then, she opened her eyes wide and stared at the man. Realization dawned on her. The woman thought, ‘Is he jealous because I massaged Hallet’s shoulder?‘ The more she thought about it, the more plausible her thought became. Cynthia gazed at Liam, caressing his face. “You want me to rub your back, right?” 

The sullen man didn’t answer, but his intention was clear. 

Cynthia put her hand behind his head, pulled him toward her, and kissed him. I need to go to Grandpa David later. How about this as interest? [‘] massage your back when we get back to the room. She intended to retreat after saying that 

However, the next second, Liam wrapped his arms around her waist. He held the back of Cynthia’s neck with his other hand, pulling her toward him. The man’s kiss was intense and forceful, overpowering Cynthia’s every sensation. 

The woman blushed and was forced to open her mouth slightly, bearing the man’s kiss. The two of them were outside Haller’s room at this time, and she didn’t close the door tightly earlier, so she wondered if Hallet had overheard their commotion. Cynthia wanted to end the kiss, but Liam seemed to know her intention and stopped her from doing so. A few minutes later, a delicate voice came out of Cynthia’s mouth. 

Only then did Liam stop while breathing unsteadily. 

Both of them were panting, hugging each other, and trying to regain their breath. 

Liam lowered his head and held Cynthia in his arms. He kept kissing her on the forehead. His breath was hot, and his voice was hoarse. “That’s what interest is.”
