His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 293
The answer to Lester's confession seemed like a foregone conclusion.
Stephen held his breath without realizing it, and his fingertips slowly clenched as a dull ache spread through his chest.
However, Tessa's response took everyone by surprise.
"Sorry, but I can't say yes."
The smile at the corner of Lester's lips faded. The night wind tousled his dark hair, and the dim lights couldn't chase away the disappointment on his face.
"May I know the reason?" His voice trembled slightly as if his emotions had slipped beyond his control.
Tessa pressed her lips together in a calm and distant expression as she answered in a tone devoid of any ripple, "Because I'm not interested in dating right now. I don't have time for a relationship, so I'm sorry—I can't accept your confession."
The crowd burst into a new wave of chatter.
Stephen raised an eyebrow, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of his mouth
He was quite satisfied with that answer.
After speaking, Tessa turned and left without ever accepting the bouquet of roses.
Stephen knew that Tessa had countless admirers during her university days. Confessions like this probably happened a dozen times a year, so it was only natural that she wouldn't remember the names or faces of every guy who professed his love.
But he remembered every single one—what they looked like and what their names were.
That was why a very real sense of crisis crept over Stephen when he saw Lester with Tessa at the restaurant on Valentine's Day.
As the memory faded, his eyes darkened. "After all these years, you still haven't given up, huh?"
Lester chuckled and answered in a calm tone, "I should be thanking you, Mr. Jacobson, for giving me the opportunity."
Stephen narrowed his eyes in warning. "Stay away from her."

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
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....
Whats wrong with the typing?? There a lot of weird words...
More frequent updates please...
