When Tessa's last luggage was carried out, Zachary stepped out of the elevator.
His face was deathly pale, and dark circles shadowed his tired eyes. He looked extremely haggard and had become thinner.
The moment he saw the movers hauling Tessa's things away, he stopped in his tracks.
His gaze was filled with sadness as he asked, "You're moving out?"
Tessa didn't say a word. She just gave a small nod and walked toward the elevator.
As she brushed past him, Zachary suddenly grabbed her wrist.
His voice was full of pleading, and his eyes were clouded with emotions. "Tessa, don't go. I promise I won't bother you anymore. Can you please not leave? I just want to be near you and stay by your side."
Tessa glanced at his hand gripping her wrist and said coldly, "Let go."
Zachary refused.
She tried to pull away, and he instinctively tightened his grip.
Tessa frowned. "Zachary, you're hurting me!"
At that, he immediately let go. Guilt flashed in his eyes. "I'm sorry, Tessa. I didn't mean to. I just… I don't want you to leave."
Her wrist was already red from his grip. She rubbed it and said calmly, "I've made myself clear—we can't go back or start over, so just stop all this. It won't change anything."
Before Tessa could get far, she remembered something.
She turned to look at Zachary and said seriously, "I heard you tried to kill yourself a few days ago. If you're that extreme, I can only be glad that I left you. I won't take it as a sign of love.
"Don't ever do it again. I don't want to be dragged into a tragedy just because of an old relationship."
With that, she stepped into the elevator with the movers.

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....
