His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 160
Jodie took a sip of her tequila before saying with a smile, "Wendy, I heard Tessa's got herself a boyfriend now. Does that mean things are looking good between you and Zachary?"
The bar's dim lighting hid Wendy's gloomy expression in the shadows. She forced a smile as her eyes glinted coldly.
Jodie had definitely asked that question on purpose.
Everyone in their social circle was well aware of Zachary's suicide attempt and exactly why he did it. So, there was no way Jodie hadn't heard about it.
Jodie only posed that question to trip Wendy up.
Wendy knew Jodie was trouble, but still!
Her face twisted into a snarl before she composed herself and replied, "Not really. Zachary's company has just gotten back on track. He's been so swamped with work recently that he barely has any time for me."
"Is that so?" Jodie tittered. "Oh, that's right. I did hear something about Zachary getting himself admitted into the hospital. He must've collapsed due to exhaustion. Gosh, I've been so busy recently that I couldn't spare a moment to visit him at Rivertown.
"Andy mentioned that Zachary wasn't doing too hot, what with Zachary being hospitalized for several days… What exactly happened there?"
Wendy's face darkened at her backhanded jabs.
However, she played it cool as she flicked her hair over her shoulder. "It's nothing major. He's been overworking himself recently, and his immune system suffered because of it. So, he caught a bit of a cold now that Rivertown has gotten chilly."
Jodie covered her mouth and gasped theatrically. "Oh my! He was hospitalized because of a cold? He really does need to take care of himself better, then."
Wendy calmed herself and inquired idly, "By the way, how are things with your boyfriend, Jodie?"
As Wendy expected, Jodie's demeanor did a complete 180 as she ground out, "We broke up."
Jodie had a very interesting specimen for a boyfriend named Eugene Marlow. He was three years younger than her and worked as an escort. Jodie had been captivated by his tall stature and attractive face at first sight.
In fact, it only took Eugene a few sweet nothings to sweep Jodie right off her feet. Sure enough, she fell for him after picking him to attend to her whenever she was at the nightclub.

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
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....
Whats wrong with the typing?? There a lot of weird words...
