A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 

Liam had barely gotten Cynthia settled in the car when she woke up, her eyes blinking slowly as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. “Why did you carry me out” she mumbled, still half–asleep. 

Liam playfully pinched her nose, his voice a mix of affection and mock tenness. “Already tired of me just after we got married” 

Once he’d teased her a bit, he fastened her seatbelt and went around to the driver’s side. 

“Not at all” Cynthia explained once he got in the car. “Your grandma’s birthday is in a couple of days, and I haven’t figured out what to get her. Queena also wants to give her a gift, so we’re planning to go shopping together tomorrow, which is why I thought Id sleep over at her place Tonight 

Liam started the car and. As they pulled onto the main road, he reached over and took her hand. I told you not to worry about Grandma’s birthday gift. I’ve got it covered” 

“No way,” Cynthia replied without a moment’s besitation. “This is the first birthday I’m celebrating with her, and I want to make it special. You do yours, and I’ll do mine” 

Liam gave her hand a gentle squeeze and let out a resigned sigh. “Grandma will love anything you give her. You don’t need to stress about it.” 

“I want to stress about it because it’s important,” Cynthia insisted, 

“Alright, have it your way. Liam conceded, but not before adding. “Just remember, as long as we’re in the same city, we sleep in the same bed. I don’t do sleeping alone.” 

Cynthia turned to him wit 

with a teasing smile. “What did you do before you met I me?” 

“It was different then. Now, I’m not letting you sleep anywhere but next to me,” he declared, his tone brimming with possessiveness that made Cynthia’s heart flutter with affection. 

A few minutes later, they pulled up to Regalian Garden. 

Cynthia, still in Queena’s pajamas and wrapped in Lam’s suit jacket, was carried upstairs by Liam since she had no shoes 

He laid her on the bed and then whispered mysteriously. “Wait for me. Don’t fall asleep just yet” With that, he disappeared from the room, leaving Cynthia curious. 

up, she picked up a book from the bedside table and started reading 

feeling sleepy after her nap, 

In no time, Liam returned, holding a box that piqued Cynthia’s curiosity. 

“What’s this” she asked, her interest clearly piqued. 

Liam sat down next to Cynthia and opened the box. Inside were a few bank cards and some documents 

Liam took out the contents, placed them on the bed, and looked at Cynthia with a smile, saying. “Take a look.” 

Cynthia saw that the documents were mostly property deeds and some assets. 

She became even more alarmed, thinking. What is he doing with these in the middle of the night?” 

“What do you mean?” Cynthia asked hesitantly. 

Liam raised an eyebrow, his face calm. “These are all my assets, and I’m handing them over to you from now on.” 

Cynthia pondered, “What? All of Liam’s assets! As the CEO of Sullivan Group, his assets must be worth tens of billions, no, hundreds of billions 

She suddenly felt the items a bit too hot to handle, and the unconsciously moved away. “Why are you giving these to me? You should keep them 

Cynthia truly felt the sudden responsibility was overwhelming and hastily declines. 

But Liam directly placed those items on Cynthia’s lap, his gaze resolute. “In our tradition, the man carns, and the woman manages the home. Now that you’re my wife, it’s only right that you manage these, he insisted. 

“But those traditions don’t apply to us. You should hold onto these” Cymbia family refused. 

Seeing her resistance, Liam was at a loss for a moment. Other women would have been overjoyed, but his wife was foolishly pushing it away. 

Liam knew that if he didn’t take a hard line, Cynthia would not take care of the money. He has to pretend to look stern. “I never go back on my decisions. These are now yours to manage. If we lose them, we might end up homelen”

Chapter 404 

Cynthia’s heart lurched at the sound of his voice. She could tell he was upset, so she turned to face him, ready to reason with him. 

“You’re not thinking this through. This is your life’s work; it could even have the inheritance from our fathers. If you just had it all over to me, aren’t you worried I might mess it up someday?” 

Her face was the picture of seriousness. I’m only human, and a pile of money is pretty tempting.” 

Cynthia didn’t actually want Liam’s money. she was trying to get him to change his mind, so she played up the potential risks. 

But instead of backing down, he seemed intrigued. “If you love money even more, that’s great. If you can get rid of all this for me. I’d be happy too.”
