His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 325

Tessa didn't bother saying her thoughts aloud.

She had no idea what to say in the face of Lester's question. All she could say was two words. "I'm sorry."

Lester's heart sank into the abyss.

"It's fine. Just think of it as a drunkard's rambling." Lester's voice sounded slightly hoarse. "You should rest early. Goodnight, Ms. Yates."

"Goodnight." Tessa promptly hung up.

Lester stared at his screen, the call already ended, leaving behind a silence louder than words.

He felt as though his heart had been stabbed through. He had been rejected once more.

Lester wasn't heartless at all. It was just that he already had someone else living there.

Unfortunately, that person would never consider him a romantic interest.

Tessa spent her time drawing with Seline in her room after having breakfast the following day.

She brought out a pink hair clip for Seline and said, "Seline, I brought you a gift! Do you like it?"

It was the same hair clip she had gotten Cassandra.

When she made the purchase, she had a feeling that Seline would definitely love the sparkly pink hair clip.

As expected, Seline's eyes widened with delight. Her starry eyes never left the hair clip in Tessa's hand. "Oh, it's so pretty! Thanks, Tessa."

"Come closer. I'll put it on you." Tessa carefully clipped the accessory onto Seline's silky hair. "There. You look beautiful."

Marianne had told her that Seline was doing much better mentally. The most obvious sign of her improvement was that she no longer talked in her sleep and had stopped bursting into frightened tears in the middle of the night.

Tessa felt the guilt gnawing her heart lessen at Seline's progress.
