Stephen had just stepped out of the shower, and his loosely draped bathrobe hung low enough to expose his toned chest while water dripped from the ends of his hair.
The second he saw Henry's message and the photo attached to it, his expression immediately fell.
It seemed like he had underestimated Lester. He never thought that Lester would use a child to get close to Tessa. Why hadn't he ever noticed how cunning Lester was?
Stephen's gaze turned cold. It seemed like Lester really wouldn't give up until he was left with no choice.
Stephen pressed his lips together tightly, but instead of replying to Henry's message, he decided to give Seline's doctor a call.
Stephen was the one who had hired the doctor from abroad, and he was also the one paying the doctor's salary. Hence, the doctor would answer any questions he had.
After asking about Seline's condition, he had learned about Seline's preferences from the doctor.
Then, he ended the call and dialed for Samson immediately.
…
The next day, Stephen arrived at the Yates residence bearing gifts. "I'm here to check on Seline," he said.
The housekeepers quickly carried the gift boxes into the house, one after another.
Stephen then said, "These gifts are for Seline. After all, the incident was caused by my family…"
"Thank you," Tessa said coldly.
Stephen asked again, "How has Seline been doing recently?"
He was already informed by the doctor regarding Seline's condition last night. He just wanted to use the opportunity to talk to Tessa.
However, Tessa's attitude remained cold and indifferent. "She's doing much better."
"That's good, then. Where is she?" he asked.
"She's playing upstairs."

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...
