His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 210

With a smile, Tessa answered, "I'm treating you to dinner. We're friends, so there's no need to be so polite with me. "

After experiencing the whole ordeal with the Grangers, Tessa and Jasmine had grown closer. They were no longer just colleagues but friends as well.

Jasmine was still slightly abashed as she said, "Isn't that a bit too much?"

"You're feeling down, and as your friend, I'm treating you to a meal to cheer you up. What's wrong with that?"

Jasmine pursed her lips, accepting Tessa's kindness. "Then, I should thank you, Ms. Yates."

"We're off work now, so you don't need to call me Ms. Yates. We sound like strangers. Just call me Tessa."

Jasmine smiled. "Alright, Tessa."

Tessa found a spot by the window, commenting, "This spot has a great view, and we'll be able to see the city lights."

"You're right." Jasmine seemed slightly reserved as she sat opposite Tessa.

"You can order whatever you like," Tessa encouraged as she handed Jasmine the menu.

Jasmine quickly waved her hands, resisting. "Tessa, you can just order whatever you like. I'm fine with anything."

Understanding Jasmine's reservedness, Tessa nodded and ordered a few signature dishes and vegetables.

The waiter helped them grill the meat in front of them before serving it to them after it was cooked.

Tessa thanked them, gesturing for them to leave.

"Alright, tell me. What happened?" she asked.

Since they were alone and the vibes in the restaurant were just right, Jasmine opened up, saying, "It's nothing big. Ms. Jennings gave me a lecture today."

"Felicia Jennings?"

"The very one."

Felicia Jennings was Jasmine's supervising lawyer. Although Tessa had not interacted with Jasmine much, she had heard from her colleagues that Felicia was notorious for being unpredictable.

She would be kind and gentle whenever she was in a good mood. However, when she was in a bad mood, she had a habit of taking her anger out on her legal assistants.

A young man had entered the firm on the same day as Jasmine. After being scolded by Felicia twice, he resigned from his job without any hesitation.

He had not passed the bar, so he was only working as a legal assistant and did not need to complete his mandatory internship. Hence, he left without a second thought.

However, Jasmine was different. She had already passed the bar and was officially interning as a lawyer since April. She had to work for a year before she could leave.
