Chapter 20
After taking the photo, Stephen handed the phone to Tessa liis gaze remained steady, his tone neutral. “Your friend seems to have sent you a message.
“Hmun? Let me take a look”
Tessa opened the message, and her expression froze.
she knew the phone would automatically display the message as a banner notification, and Stephen had likely seen it.
A flicker of guilt crossed het face as she looked back at him, explaining, “Ex–boyfriend. We’ve broken up.”
“Mm,” Stephen marmured, his face unreadable, offering no hint of emotion.
blocked him on WhatsApp, but I forgot to block his mumber,” she added.
Tessa felt a little flustered, unsure why she felt guilty. At 25, having an ex–boyfriend was perfectly normal, wasn’t it?
Besides, she had been dating before agreeing to an attanged marriage. She hadn’t done anything wrong to Stephen, so why was she feeling guilty? Taking a deep breath, she composed herself. “I’ll block him right now,” she said.
In front of Stephen, she added Zachary’s number to her blacklist.
With a final glance at Stephen, she reassured him, “Don’t worry. Now that I’ve agreed to marry you, my ex is just a thing of the past.”
He gave a bet nod. His dark eyes revealed little emotion, but as she turned away, a faint smile tugged at his lips.
After spending a few days with Stephen, Tessa returned to Rivertown.
she hadn’t told her family about her armval, so no one from the Yates family was at the airport to pick her up.
Instead, it was Stephen’s assistant, Avery Gray, who greeted her.
The black Rolls–Royce Cullinan rolled to a stop in front of the Yates residence.
“Shall I accompany you inside?” stephen asked.

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....
