His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 129
Tessa had been swamped with work for the past few days. She had to attend court on a daily basis, while making time to accompany Lucas for his workplace injury assessment and work capacity evaluation.
The weather report announced that a cold wave was about to hit the city. The temperature would drop drastically tomorrow and would reach a low of 24.8 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tessa had arranged for the Grangers to be transferred to a private ward in a tertiary-level hospital. She also asked Jasmine to buy down jackets, thick quilts, and electric blankets for the siblings.
Jasmine's eyes were red-rimmed when she was done delivering the items to them.
She sniffled, voice thick with tears as she said, "Ms. Yates, I've done everything you've asked of me."
Tessa had been hard at work typing on the computer. She glanced at Jasmine after hearing how choked up she sounded. "Why are you on the verge of tears?"
Jasmine pressed her lips together as her teary eyes shone. "Anne hasn't been doing well lately. The doctor said that if a suitable bone marrow isn't found soon, she won't live through the winter…"
Tessa's fingers froze above the keyboard. Tears welled in her eyes, wetting her lashes. Her voice trembled slightly when she assured Jasmine, "Just wait a little longer. I've already sent people to find a suitable bone marrow. They'll find one… They'll definitely find one."
Tears spilled down Jasmine's cheeks. She looked at Tessa with bloodshot eyes. "Ms. Yates, if Anne really—"
Tessa swiftly cut her off before she could finish her sentence. "It won't come to that! Anne will be okay!"
Jasmine swallowed her sobs, pursing her lips and forcing her tears back.
Tessa wasn't able to focus for the rest of the afternoon. She made some time to place a call. "A suitable bone marrow still hasn't been found?"
"Ms. Yates, we're trying our best to locate a suitable one. You'll be the first to know if we have good news for you," the person on the other side of the line replied.
…
That night, Stephen picked Tessa up after work to have dinner together. He brought her to a high-class Lospian restaurant. The melodic sounds of the piano floated soothingly around the place.
With the red wine and steak being of the highest quality, the roses and candlelights also added to the restaurant's romantic ambiance. Yet, Tessa was still distracted, leaving her steak untouched and letting it go cold.

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....
