His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 11

The icy blue Bentley Continental GT was a breathtaking sight, its distinctive color catching Tessa's eye instantly.

She admired the car.

A man in a suit stepped out respectfully and handed her the keys. "Ms. Yates, this car is a gift from Mr. Jacobson."

Tessa accepted the keys, her heart stirring slightly.

Stephen was truly generous. This car was worth over four million.

"Thank you," she replied.

"You're welcome. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." The man gave a polite bow, his demeanor respectful.

"Okay."

As soon as the man left, she received a call from Stephen.

"How do you like the car?" he asked, his tone casual, as if he were simply inquiring about her meal.

A four-million-dollar car, mentioned as nonchalantly as if it were a head of cabbage from the market.

In their social circle, such lavish gifts for a fiancée were common. But since she had been living a simple life for the past three years, she felt a little disconnected from that world and found herself taken aback by the gesture.

"I love it. Thank you, Stephen," Tessa replied.

"I'm glad you like it. I remembered you like blue,” Stephen said, his voice deep and laced with a subtle charm.

Tessa was taken aback. "How did you know?"

As far as she could recall, she had never mentioned to Stephen that she liked blue.

Stephen chuckled softly on the other end of the line. "When I tutored you that year, your notebooks and pencil case were all light blue," he said.

Tessa was surprised he remembered such a small detail.

She did love blue, and she had been captivated when she first laid eyes on the light blue Bentley.

"The moment I saw this car, I knew you'd love it," Stephen said warmly. "It's a smaller model, perfect for a woman. Why don't you give it a try?"

"Sure. I'll try it later."

After hanging up the phone, Tessa sat in the car, her hands gripping the steering wheel. She didn't start the engine right away, and her mind was swirling with mixed emotions.

Though she had her driver's license and had been behind the wheel plenty of times over the past three years, she had always driven Zachary's car.

Meanwhile, her car remained untouched, gathering dust in the underground garage of Rivertown Villa.

For the past three years with Zachary, Tessa often felt more like his chauffeur than his girlfriend.

Zachary loved to party, and whenever he went out drinking and didn't want to drive, he would call her to pick him up.

She had also heard from Zachary's friends that when he broke up with his ex-girlfriend, he had gifted her a BMW worth over 800,000 dollars.

Despite knowing that Tessa's job required frequent travel for court hearings, client meetings, and negotiations, Zachary had never offered to buy her a car.

It wasn't that Tessa was interested in his car, but when she compared Zachary to Stephen, the difference in their care and attention was striking.

Zachary's affection always felt somewhat insincere.

As Tessa was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a scream.

"Wow! This car is absolutely gorgeous! I've always dreamed of owning one, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it," Wendy's voice echoed.

Tessa glanced out the window and spotted Wendy and Zachary not far off.

They were walking toward the car.
