Tessa's words had left a seed of doubt in Wendy's heart.
Once she left the law firm, she began asking around her circle of friends and quickly found out that Gomez Group was indeed in hot waters.
Apparently, Gomez Group's biggest shareholders had sold off all their shares and cashed out. Hence, Gomez Group was back in Zachary's hands, but the whole company was in a mess.
Wendy frowned.
It was no wonder Zachary had been so busy lately. Whenever she saw him, he always looked exhausted, looking like he had not slept well in days.
Would Gomez Group survive the mess?
If the Gomez family were to go bankrupt, then she'd just be jumping into a burning hole by marrying Zachary.
She had to observe the situation for a few more days. If Gomez Group could not hold on, then there was no need for her to give birth to the child in her womb.
…
On Wednesday night, Tessa attended an auction. When she arrived at the event, she was shocked to see Stephen there as well.
Stephen rarely attended such auctions in person as he usually had his assistants handle it if he wanted anything.
He was dressed in a black suit, and there was an air of elegance around him. He was surrounded by people as everyone was eager to befriend him.
Stephen was always the center of attention no matter where he went.
However, Tessa just glanced at him impassively before she looked away.
When Stephen spotted her, he immediately pushed through the crowd and walked up to her. "Tess, are you here for the auction too?"
In truth, he was only at the auction because he had set his eyes on a few items that were up for bidding. Most of the items at that auction were exquisite jewelry.
He wanted to personally bid for those pieces of jewelry and gift them to Tessa. However, Lester had the same plan as him.
Lester walked over to greet them, and Stephen's expression immediately fell. "Why are you here?"
"It's a small world," Lester replied with a polite smile.
Tessa nodded. "You two can continue chatting. I'll head in first."
"I'll go with you," Lester quickly suggested.

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...
