His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 205

The call came to an abrupt stop.

"Don't flatter yourself" was what Stephen had said.

Those words were like a curse as they echoed repeatedly in Tessa's mind. Her mind fell into despair as all of the memories where he had showered her in love began to fade.

The snow outside rained heavier, and the northern wind howled, causing the branches to shake a little.

She looked at the snowy blizzard in a daze.

After a moment of silence from her phone, her phone began to ring again.

The tears staining Tessa's cheeks were still visible, and the sound of her phone ringing only filled her with exhaustion.

It was Samuel calling. "Tess, the Jacobsons came to my ward to call off the wedding."

Tessa responded in a low hum, her heart already numb from the pain.

He fell silent, acting as if he could not bear to continue. "Have you seen the rumors about Stephen and that female celebrity?"

Tessa did not answer him.

Samuel continued, "I'll hold a press conference tomorrow, announcing that the Yates family has called off the engagement with the Jacobsons. The entire blame will fall on the Jacobson family.

"Tess, the Jacobsons are the ones who are in the wrong. Don't feel burdened by it. It's not humiliating to cancel your engagement with someone else. I'll find you a much better man in the future.

"With how beautiful and talented you are, I'm sure you'll be able to find any man you want."

Tessa remained silent. She didn't even know how she should respond.

She never thought that the Jacobsons would act so quickly. Stephen had just broken up with her last night, and his family had visited her father to call off the wedding the next day.

Were they in such a rush?

Recalling the pleasant woman's voice on the other end of the call earlier, Tessa felt a sharp pain in her heart. Was Stephen in such a rush to get rid of her because he wanted to be with Nancy officially?

"Tess, you should rest well. Once the press conference ends tomorrow, I'll send someone to drive you home."

Once the press conference ended, the Yates family and the Jacobsons would have nothing to do with each other. Hence, James would probably stop targeting them.
