James had a tall, lean build, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. His impeccable sense of style only enhanced his striking features.
When he smiled, there was an easy, approachable charm that made him seem entirely harmless.
If he chose to act the part, no one would ever associate him with the lunatic who carried half the criminal legislation on his back.
Tessa had never met James before. When she heard him call her name and noticed his designer attire, she immediately thought he must be a friend of one of her acquaintances.
James didn't introduce himself. Instead, he gave her a lingering gaze, saying, "As expected, you're truly a beauty."
Standing next to him, Yvette furrowed just slightly, jealousy flickering in her gaze before disappearing in an instant.
She had no knowledge of his deep-rooted vendettas against the Jacobson and Yates families, nor did she dare inquire about the other women in his life.
In her view, a proper lover was meant to be obedient, perceptive, and never foolish enough to pry into matters best left untouched.
Yvette stood quietly by James' side, her eyes subtly studying Tessa.
Yes, she was undoubtedly beautiful—an all-natural beauty. She had fair skin, delicate features, completely untouched by enhancements.
Her figure was equally enviable—a slender waist, long legs, lean yet with curves in all the right places.
Tessa, however, remained completely unaware of Yvette's calculating gaze.
When she heard James' offhand comment, her brows furrowed in confusion. There was something about him that didn't sit right with her.
The way he looked at her was almost predatory—like a hunter sizing up its prey, his gaze filled with both menace and amusement.
Feeling more irritated, Tessa asked again, "Who are you?"
James simply smiled, offering no direct answer. "Me? You'll find out soon enough, Ms. Yates. We'll be seeing each other again."
What was he getting at?

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....
