His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 266
Stephen had just returned to the Jacobson residence when Jacqueline's car pulled into the underground parking lot of the very same residence.
The two entered the villa one after another.
Rowena, Caleb, and Sophia were sitting on the couch, waiting for them in the hall.
Stephen looked harried as soon as he entered, saying, "Tess' friend was the one who called the police because they couldn't reach her and worried that something bad had happened. The police then contacted the Yates family to confirm if Tess was missing.
"The police still have no idea that James is the one behind it. Since she has only been missing for a few hours, they can't and won't file a missing person's case just yet."
Stephen's expression was stern, and his dark eyes were cold. "James called and wants me to meet him alone—"
"You can't! Stephen, you can't go alone!" Jacqueline interrupted him before he could finish speaking.
Jacqueline had been in a fantastic mood ever since she learned that James had abducted Tessa. She had even been humming a tune on her way home.
However, her good mood evaporated the second she heard Stephen say he planned to rescue Tessa alone.
Jacqueline, who was extremely agitated and nervous, blabbered, "James definitely won't let you leave that place alive. It's too dangerous for you to go alone. We should call the police and have them accompany you!"
Stephen frowned and intoned severely, "No, we can't tell them anything. If James finds out we've gotten in touch with the police, he'll kill her immediately."
Jacqueline promptly replied, "Her friend has already called the police, so they're aware that Tessa is missing."
Stephen answered, "As I just mentioned earlier, the police don't know that Tess was abducted. There won't be an issue as long as we get the Yates family on board and convince them to tell the police that she's been found. Then, we can come up with a plan to rescue Tess."
Caleb asked, "How do you plan to save her?"
Stephen replied resolutely, "James is after me. I'll exchange myself for her."
The next moment, Stephen said coldly, "I don't want to hear those words out of your mouth again."
Jacqueline's eyes turned red-rimmed as she bit her lower lip, feeling aggrieved. "Stephen, is Tessa really more important than your life?"
"Yes."
There wasn't even a sliver of hesitation on his part. That single word left the entire Jacobson family speechless, and the hall fell deathly silent.
After a long, stifling pause, Rowena scowled in anger and rebuked him. "You're being outrageous!"
Caleb's expression was no better. "Stephen, have you forgotten your grandfather's words?"
"No," Stephen responded, his expression placid. "You don't need to worry. It's true that Tessa is worth more to me than life itself, but I'm not so foolish to trade my life for hers. Neither of us will survive this if I go alone."

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....
