Lester's maternal grandmother, who was incidentally also Lyanna's mother, Rita Garcia, found herself growing fonder of the potential couple sitting across from her.
She leaned over to whisper to Lyanna, "Ms. Yates would make such a good match for Lester. Do you know if she has a boyfriend?"
Lyanna smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Mom. I've looked into it, and she's single."
Rita beamed with delight upon hearing her answer. "That's wonderful."
Lester's maternal grandfather, Edward Davis, was already 83 years old. However, he was still quite spry for his age.
He cheerfully slid the menu over to Tessa and said, "Ms. Yates, feel free to order anything you'd like from the menu."
Since she was the guest, she didn't bother declining. Instead, she graciously accepted the menu with a smile. "I'll do just that, then."
Fortuna served Orkfordian cuisine. Tessa flipped through the menu and found that most of the dishes they offered were Ucresian.
She picked a few reasonably priced dishes that were light and delicious, suitable for both the elderly and children.
Once she was done, she handed the menu back to Edward and said politely, "Grandpa, I've ordered my fill. Please go ahead."
Her choice to address him as Grandpa filled Edward with joy, and he couldn't help but regard Tessa as though she was his granddaughter-in-law.
"Of course." Edward accepted the menu, grinning from ear to ear.
Cain remained composed as he observed their interactions. He hadn't spoken much after expressing his gratitude toward Tessa.
That was because he knew Stephen. After all, his company worked closely with Jacobson Corporation.
Hence, he had attended Stephen's engagement banquet last year.
The Jacobson family had invited both him and Lyanna. Unfortunately, Lyanna had been on a business trip in Lumia at the time and wasn't able to attend.
That was also why she had no idea that Tessa had once been Stephen's fiancée.
Honestly, Cain was surprised when he first saw Tessa. However, he wasn't an emotional individual, so he managed to keep his shock under lock and key.
He could tell that the Davis family, especially his wife, Lyanna, desperately wanted to match Lester with Tessa.
Yet, there was the matter of Tessa and Stephen's relationship.

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...
