The police and ambulance arrived quickly. The two attackers were then taken away by the authorities.
Outside the hospital emergency room, Wynn and Jasmine waited anxiously.
Jasmine paced back and forth in the corridor, mumbling to herself, "Ms. Yates will be fine. She has to be fine. She will be fine…"
Wynn stood silently, her expression grim. Her back was against the wall, eyes cast downward, and lips pressed into a tight line.
Soon, Samuel and Marianne arrived in a panic.
"How is Tess?" Samuel asked Wynn anxiously.
Wynn lowered her eyes, guilt written all over her face. Her voice was hoarse as she said, "Ms. Yates was shot in the chest. I don't know if the bullet hit her heart."
Samuel swayed at the news, nearly losing his balance.
"How could this happen?" His eyes widened in disbelief, and pain filled his gaze.
"It's my fault…" Jasmine's eyes were red. Her voice trembled with tears.
"The angle was all wrong. The shooter wasn't aiming at her. It should have been me. Ms. Yates pushed me out of the way. She took the bullet for me… I'm so sorry. This is all my fault…"
"Mr. Yates, those men weren't ordinary criminals," Wynn said solemnly.
"I fought both of them. They were professionally trained mercenaries. I saw a tattoo on the back of one of their necks. It's the mark used by mercenaries under the largest gang in Arcton."
Wynn pulled up a photo on her phone and showed it to Samuel. She had taken it just before the police arrived.
In the photo, the man who had passed out after being drugged and stabbed in the leg had a black gun-shaped tattoo on the back of his neck.

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
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....
