His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 109
Tessa, who had already fallen asleep, immediately pouted and let out a soft whimper before clutching tightly onto Stephen's collar.
"Are you awake?" Stephen leaned in and placed his hands on both sides of Tessa's body as he looked down at her.
"Zal…" Tessa's eyes remained closed as she moved her lips and mumbled, "Zal…"
Zal? Zachary? Zachary Gomez?
Was she really calling out for Zachary despite being drunk?
It was already bad enough that she had drunkenly spouted nonsense outside, claiming that he had a problem in certain aspects. Yet, she now had the audacity to call for Zachary?
Oh, right. He almost forgot why he had gone to the bar! He had gone there to confront her about her accusation toward him.
She hadn't even slept with him yet, so how could she possibly know if he could get it up or not?
Stephen furrowed, feeling a sudden chill in his heart. What an ungrateful little thing.
Straightening up, he looked down at Tessa. His voice was low and laced with displeasure. "Do you still have feelings for him?"
Despite knowing that she could not hear him, he still asked the question.
The air was thick with jealousy.
Stephen's voice was dark as he warned, "Tessa, you better think properly before you answer me."
The next second, her lashes fluttered as she turned over restlessly in bed. She buried her face into the pillow as she slurred softly, "A zale. I want to hear a tale…"
Stephen was at a loss for words.
A tale?
So, she wasn't trying to call out for Zachary. She was just slurring her words due to her being intoxicated, making her pronounce tale as zale.
Stephen let out a short laugh as the tension in him suddenly eased away.
He leaned in closer, whispering affectionately, "Tessa, let me take you to shower first, okay? I'll tell you a story after you're all clean and ready for bed."
Tessa liked being clean. If she woke up the next morning still wearing yesterday's clothes, reeking of alcohol, she would definitely be disgusted with herself.
The room was so quiet that he could hear the soft, steady rhythm of her breathing.

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....
