How to store multifield data in JCR properties not in JCR node

Below is the structure of my multifield dialog in template page component. once I author this mutlified in page properties, I want data to be stored in page jcr:content properties rather than in JCR node.

Usually it is being stored like this in node type

Instead above I wanted to store styleLevel3And4 inside jcr:content as a property value like below.

 How I can achieve that, thank you.

               <style_3and4
                    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                    jcr:title="Style for levels 3 &amp; 4"
                    sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fieldset"
                    title="Style for levels 3 &amp; 4">
                    <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
                        <style_few_items
                            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/multifield"
                            cq-msm-lockable="styleLevel3And4"
                            fieldLabel="Style configuration(⚠ Editing is only possible in Blueprint and Standalone)">
                            <field
                                jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                                sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container"
                                name="./styleLevel3And4">
                                <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
                                    <column
                                        jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                                        sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container">
                                        <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
                                            <path_page_level_2
                                                jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                                                sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathbrowser"
                                                fieldLabel="Path to page on level 2"
                                                name="./pathPageLevel2"
                                                rootPath="/content"/>
                                        </items>
                                    </column>
                                </items>
                            </field>
                        </style_few_items>
                    </items>
                </style_3and4>

Here is an example you can check

<listItems jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield" composite="{Boolean}false" fieldDescription="Click 'Add Field' to add more domain link in list." fieldLabel="Domain Link List" required="{Boolean}true"> <field jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield" name="./domainLinks"/> </listItems>
