The nanny walked in with a thermos, propped up the side table, and began serving the dishes. "Mrs. Jacobson Senior, I've brewed this chicken soup for five hours over low heat. Please have a taste—"
"Get it out of my sight! I don't want it!" Rowena hissed.
Although she was speaking to the nanny, her eyes never once left Sophia's face, glaring at her with rage.
Sophia curled her lips into a victorious smirk, picked up her purse, and sashayed right out of the door.
…
Lester had brought Cassandra along to visit Tessa.
They found Tessa's ward surprisingly lively when the ward's door slid open.
Sienna and Naomi had arrived a few minutes ago.
Naomi was holding a Hermès purse as she teased Tessa, "Babe, I went all the way to Fairford just to buy this purse for you. I'll have you know that this particular purse isn't available in the country.
"Plus, you know my motto. Shopping is the cure to all ailments. I'm sure you'll be healed in no time now that I've gotten you this purse."
Meanwhile, Sienna had a Cartier box in her hands as she said with a smile, "Tessa, I bought you a bracelet."
Tessa chuckled. "What's with all the gifts? It isn't even my birthday."
"We're hoping you'll have a swift recovery so you'll be able to have fun with us as swiftly as possible." Naomi giggled. Then, she added, "You have no idea how boring those escorts are without you around."
Quentin's face darkened upon hearing her words. He reached out to bonk Naomi on the head lightly, saying sternly, "Hosts, you say? Do you even hear yourself?"
"Ow!" Naomi jerked her head to glare at Quentin playfully as she rubbed her aching head. "I'm just fooling around with Tessa to brighten the mood. Why are you being such a killjoy?"
"How is it my fault that you just had to choose the wrong words to say?" Quentin retorted hotly.

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....
