His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 237
"Stephen, you used to never talk back to me like this. Did Tessa say something to drive a wedge between us? Every time we talk about anything related to Tessa, your entire demeanor changes," said Rowena.
Stephen barked out a laugh as a flash of loneliness flickered in his eyes. "Drive a wedge between us? You're overthinking it. I haven't spoken to her in a long time."
The stern tone that Rowena used made it clear that there was no room for discussion. "In that case, be good and attend the matchmaking."
"No," was Stephen's callous response as he turned on his heel and made his way to the staircase.
"You're behaving ridiculously!" Rowena yelled at Stephen's retreating back.
Jacqueline ran a soothing hand down Rowena's back to calm her. "Don't be angry, Grandma."
Rowena calmed her breathing before she began ranting, "Jacqueline, look how unreasonable your brother is being. He refuses to be serious when he's talking to me. He wasn't like this in the past."
"You're right. Ever since he got together with Tessa, it's like he transformed into a new person. He never used to talk back to you in the past. I bet Tessa must have said something to drive a wedge between the two of you," Jacqueline agreed.
"Do you also think that Tessa's the cause?" Rowena asked.
"Yes, Grandma. Any time the topic of conversation is related to Tessa, Stephen changes into another person. I can't think of any other reason for this change if Tessa wasn't trying to ruin your relationship with Stephen."
"You can't be so sure, Jacqueline," Nancy chimed in as she snacked on some nuts. "When Tessa and Stephen were still together, were you hiding under their bed to learn that she was ruining Stephen and Mrs. Jacobson Senior's relationship?"
Jacqueline shot Nancy an irritated look. "I wasn't. But—"
Nancy didn't let her finish her sentence. She continued, "Then, did Tessa personally tell you anything that suggested she was trying to drive a wedge in their relationship?"
Nancy was all smiles as she answered, "It's as I said, Jacqueline."
Jacqueline was about to lose her temper when she suddenly remembered that Rowena was still seated next to her. She hurriedly plastered a pathetic expression on her face and softened her tone when she said, "Nancy, do you have something to say to me?"
"Yeah, I do. You must be blind since you didn't notice it even though it was staring you right in the face." Nancy scoffed as she rolled her eyes. "I hate bitches the most."
"Did I wrong you somehow, Nancy? Why are you so hostile toward me?"
Nancy smiled. "So not only are you blind, but you're also deaf," she said before raising her voice and emphasizing each word that came next. "I said, I hate bitches the most!"
Nancy shot Jacqueline a bright smile. She pitched her tone higher and asked, "Were you able to hear me clearly, Jacqueline?"

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....
