His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 324
Tessa only saw the text Lester had sent her over WhatsApp 30 minutes ago when she returned to her room.
He had texted her, asking, "Are you home, Ms. Yates?"
Tessa replied, "Yes, I'm home. Do you have something to discuss?"
Lester said, "Are you up for a call?"
Tessa typed out a quick response. "Sure."
Lester called her the very next second.
"What's the matter, Mr. Cooper?" Tessa asked.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. I didn't know that my aunt would invite so many people over for dinner. She said she wanted to treat you to dinner for finding Cassie at the park. That's why she invited me as well. She didn't breathe a word about inviting my grandparents as well. I'm so sorry." He sounded apologetic.
Tessa huffed in amusement. "And here I thought it was something serious. It's fine. Don't worry about it. I don't have social anxiety."
Lester still felt somewhat embarrassed. "I'm just worried that you'd be scared. After all, my aunt could be a bit overbearing sometimes. My parents have been living abroad these few years, so my aunt and the others have been overly worried about my lack of interest in romance.
"She's been setting me up on so many blind dates that I can barely breathe. She probably misunderstood our relationship ever since she saw you with me. I've talked to her about it, but it doesn't seem like she will ever listen to me."
Tessa blinked at his verbal vomit. That said, she had no idea that Lyanna was harboring such thoughts.
She took a while to parse through Lester's wall of words before saying hesitantly, "Are you saying that your aunt wants to matchmake us?"
The other line fell tellingly silent. All she could hear was the sound of his breathing.
After a few seconds, Lester hummed in agreement. Yet, there was an indescribable tone to his answer.
Tessa found it utterly ridiculous.
Still, she said in bewildered amusement, "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint your aunt. I have no interest in pursuing any romance for the time being. Everbright Law Group is just up and running, there is so much work for us to do. Frankly, my focus right now is on my career."
Lester's eyes flickered with disappointment when he heard her answer, and he let out a silent sigh.
Honestly, he had said all those things just to get a feel on Tessa's thoughts about him as a potential romantic partner.

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...
