Stephen gulped, his voice hoarse as he gave in to Tessa's request. "Alright, you can have a kiss. Just one kiss."
Almost immediately, a pair of warm and soft lips landed gently on Stephen's face, and a red lipstick mark was imprinted on his fair, handsome face, making him look much more alluring.
Stephen's steps immediately came to an abrupt halt. His eyes widened, and his heart was pounding rapidly, making him feel as if his heart was about to burst out from his chest.
The spot where Tessa had kissed him tingled, sending an electrifying sensation across his body.
Because he was so close to her, the scent of alcohol and her sweet fragrance invaded his senses, making him feel like he couldn't breathe.
His breaths became heavier, emotions swirled within his eyes, and his voice became hoarse. "Tess…"
Tessa was completely drunk and unaware of how tantalizing she was being. Stephen was a young, healthy, and vigorous man, so how could he possibly endure such teasing from her?
Taking advantage of her drunk state, Tessa continued to torment him. One kiss wasn't enough for her, so she tugged at Stephen's collar and kissed his jaw.
"Stephen…" Tessa whispered flirtatiously.
Her kisses felt like gentle raindrops pouring down on him. Holding his breath, he felt as though someone was tickling his heart with a feather.
Quentin let out an exaggerated gasp and covered his eyes with his hand, only to spread his fingers apart and peek through the gap of his fingers.
Beside him, Henry glanced at him and smirked. "Just watch them openly if you want to. I've never seen Steve act like this before either. It's definitely a rare occurrence."
Quentin's voice was incredulous as he asked, "Is this really the Stephen we know? Be honest with me. Over the past few years, we've seen so many women throw themselves at him, and he's never even batted an eye.
"I was seriously starting to think he just wasn't interested in women. But I've finally seen him in such a state. Tessa had just teased him a little, yet he's feeling completely lost now."
Stephen was already feeling disoriented from all the kisses Tessa was giving him.
His voice was rough as he coaxed her gently, "Tess, be a good girl for me, and stop messing around now."

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
I don’t like that Stephen is dropping Tessa. They could work together to go after James. But if this happens then I’ll stop reading....
