His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 153
Tessa found his response amusing. "Alright, I'll give you a spare key later."
Stephen followed Tessa inside, the bodyguards trailing behind them, carrying the suitcases.
"Why wait until later? Just do it today. I'm worried you'll forget."
Tessa laughed. "I'm not that forgetful."
Stephen received a call from Lawrence while he was having dinner with Tessa.
"Mr. Jacobson, Jacqueline has been captured. She's at the base. When will you be coming over?"
Stephen's eyes darkened. "Later."
"Understood, Mr. Jacobson."
Lawrence was left uncertain. How much later was "later"? But he didn't dare to ask.
Stephen ended the call and resumed eating.
Tessa asked casually, "Do you have something to do later?"
Stephen looked up at her and asked, "Do you want me to stay?"
Tessa puffed her cheeks and bit down on her fork without answering. She was the one who asked first, but he was turning it around on her.
Stephen's eyes filled with a hint of amusement. "Tess, do you not want me to leave?"
Tessa pursed her lips and mumbled, "I was just asking."
"Alright, you were just asking," Stephen said with a low chuckle.
"It's true, I was just asking. What's so funny about that?" Tessa pretended to glare at him in annoyance.
Stephen curved his lips into a smile and looked at her earnestly. "Nothing. But if you don't want me to leave, I can stay."
There it was again. Why did it sound so cheesy?
Previously, during the engagement, Jacqueline had orchestrated Seline's kidnapping, ordering Susan to use Seline as leverage against Tessa. Jacqueline had been on the run ever since. With her capture, Stephen saw no reason to keep it from Tessa.
Tessa fell silent for a moment.
"Can I go?"
"Of course," Stephen replied immediately.
"Then, I'll go with you. If she really is the mastermind behind the kidnapping, Seline and I are both victims. I have every right to see her."
"Alright, I'll take you there."
On the way over, Tessa and Stephen sat quietly in the backseat of the car.
"What are you thinking about, Tess?" Stephen asked as he pulled her into his arms, his voice warm and gentle.
"What are you planning to do with Jacqueline? Are you going to hand her over to the authorities?" Tessa asked.

Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
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....
