His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 284
Zachary's expression changed.
Jacqueline had already contacted him. She repeatedly emphasized that he couldn't let Tessa and Stephen know about their connection.
Since Cayden had already been caught, it wouldn't be a big deal even if Tessa found out Zachary was involved with him.
Zachary shook his head. "No."
Tessa glared at him and asked sharply, "Then how did you know? How did you know that James took me to Silverstone? How did you know about Stephen's plan? Did you call the police on purpose so that neither of us would make it out alive?"
"No!" Zachary's eyes trembled as he hurried to explain. "That's not it, Tess. I didn't know about Stephen's plan. I only knew that James kidnapped you. I called the police to save you. How could I just stand by and watch something happen to you?"
Tessa's patience was running thin. "I'll ask you one last time. How did you know that James took me to Silverstone?"
"It... It was one of his men who told me..." Zachary looked away, clearly uneasy.
Tessa's gaze locked onto him. "Why would one of James' men tell you?"
He said, "My company was on the verge of bankruptcy. I was looking everywhere for investors, but no one dared to help out after I'd offended the Jacobson family, the Somerton family, and your family.
"Then, a man named Cayden Lindth approached me. He said he was willing to invest and help Gomez Group get back on its feet, but the condition was that they would become the controlling shareholders."
Of course, that wasn't the truth. The person who approached him was actually Jacqueline, but he couldn't say that.
"Cayden Lindth?" Tessa frowned.
The name sounded familiar.
He paused for a few seconds, then looked Tessa straight in the eye. "He dug into my background. He found out that I used to date you and that I had a grudge against the Jacobson family. That's what he wanted. He wanted to use me to go after Stephen."
Tessa's brow furrowed deeper, her dark eyes flashing with anger. "Go after Stephen? You?"
The words hit Zachary like a slap. His eyes dimmed, and a flicker of pain passed through them.
His voice was hoarse as he said, "According to Cayden, James said that the more Stephen wanted something, the more he wanted to take it away from him. Tearing you and Stephen apart was the easiest way to make Stephen suffer."
"I'm sorry, Tess..." Zachary took a step forward and reached out, but Tessa slapped his hand away.
"Don't touch me!" she snapped while glaring at him.

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....
