Although Lyanna had invited Tessa over for dinner as thanks, Tessa didn't think it would be right to show up empty-handed. So, she bought a pair of hair clips as a gift.
Besides, she knew that little girls like Cassandra loved all kinds of sparkly and pink accessories.
"Ms. Yates, why don't I lead you to our private room?" Lyanna said with a smile.
"Sure."
Since the private room was on the third floor, Tessa and Lyanna took the elevator up.
As soon as the elevator doors slid shut, Cassandra waved the hair clips in the air and looked up at Lyanna. "Mom, can you help me put them on?"
"Oh, you little rascal," Lyanna huffed as a resigned smile appeared on her face. Then, she took the hair clips and wove them into Cassandra's hair, placing one on each side of her head.
"You look lovely," Tessa praised unabashedly.
Lyanna said in return, "Thank you so much for the gift, Ms. Yates."
"You're very welcome," Tessa tittered.
The elevator arrived on the third floor before long, and Lyanna promptly led Tessa to their private room.
Tessa couldn't help but freeze when the door swung open as there were other people in attendance.
There were a total of four people waiting for her inside.
Lester rose to his feet and greeted her with a smile. "Why, good evening, Ms. Yates."
Lyanna teased him, "Look at you sounding so formal. We all know each other, don't we? Just call her Tess."
Then, she batted her lashes at Tessa playfully. "Lester happened to be handling some business nearby and hadn't had dinner, so I invited him to join us. I hope you don't mind, Ms. Yates."
Tessa shook her head. "Not at all."
Nevertheless, there remained three other unknowns waiting for her in the private room—an elderly couple smiling genially at her and an elegant-looking middle-aged man in a suit.

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