His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 166
The bodyguards proceeded to beat Leon black and blue.
Tessa had her arms crossed against her chest as she stood before Leon. Her eyes were cold as they glinted dangerously. "Did you send someone to push me into traffic earlier?"
Being a lawyer came with certain risks, and it wasn't uncommon for lawyers to find themselves fending against resentful clients seeking revenge. In fact, Tom was a vivid example of that. Not long ago, Tom's client had stabbed him, and Tom had ended up in the hospital for treatment.
Leon fell to his knees as he pleaded, "I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. Please have mercy on me. I won't do it again."
Tessa frowned as she demanded sharply, "I asked you a question. Did you hire someone to push me into oncoming traffic earlier?"
"What? Push you into oncoming traffic?" Leon was genuinely confused. "I didn't hire that guy. This is my first time meeting you."
It wasn't him? Then, who was it?
Tessa's frown deepened as she went through her list of suspects.
Could it be Wendy?
But Tessa quickly rejected that notion.
Wendy might be a two-faced snake who disliked her a great deal, but Wendy didn't seem like someone who'd pull something so malicious. She wouldn't go as far as to have Tessa murdered.
Who else could it be, then?
Tessa racked her mind a little longer.
Suddenly, a name came to mind—James Fullerton.
Stephen had told her everything about James and his ties to the Jacobsons. He had even warned her that James might target her as a means of revenge against him.
When she arrived at that conclusion, she regarded the battered man before her cooly. "Are you one of James' underlings?"
Leon shook his head and blurted, "I don't know who that is. Ms. Yates, please have mercy on me. I swear I won't do this again. I'll even compensate Lucas as soon as you let me go. Please just let me go!"
Tessa inquired coldly, "If you aren't one of James' men, why did you invite me here? Why did you have thugs ambush me? You're just a tiny factory owner, so I know for a fact that you wouldn't be so bold if you didn't have someone backing you. Tell me who it is and I'll let you leave."
He wasn't afraid of the cops. After all, his boss had people on the inside.
…
Stephen was in the Jacobson Corporation's president's office when he received a call from a bodyguard.
His expression immediately turned thunderous when he heard the bodyguard's report.
Tessa had been in danger twice in one day and had nearly gotten into serious trouble.
A wave of fear washed over Stephen as he ended the call and grabbed his coat, preparing to leave.
Samson scampered after him, yelling, "Mr. Jacobson, where are you going? You have a meeting in ten minutes! Mr. Jacobson?"
…
Meanwhile, the housekeeper, Michelle Mercer, had prepared several of Tessa's favorite dishes at Grandview Garden villa.

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....
