Yanis lunged at Tessa with the intention to rip the latter to shreds.
However, Wynn grabbed Yanis' hand and struck a specific pressure point.
Yanis stumbled away with a yelp, her face twisting in pain. She clutched her arm against her chest, rubbing the spot Wynn had struck earlier.
Her arm had gone completely numb.
"What did you do to me? It's all pins and needles now!" Yanis cried in dismay as she grimaced.
Some bystanders couldn't help but laugh at her reaction.
"Get lost," Wynn said coldly, her eyes glinting dangerously as she stared Yanis down.
Yanis shivered, finding Wynn utterly terrifying. After all, Wynn had left her entire arm numb with a single touch.
Just then, the hospital's security finally arrived.
"Alright, show's over." Several uniformed guards wasted no time dispersing the crowd of onlookers.
The curious audience eventually scattered to the wind.
"Are you alright, Ms. Yates?" Shall I call the cops?" one of the guards asked Tessa respectfully.
They knew who Tessa was. Their captain had informed them that the daughter of the person signing their paychecks had been admitted to this hospital. He had then shown them a picture of Tessa and instructed them to be on their best behaviour and to fulfil her every whim.
Meanwhile, Yanis immediately pieced the puzzle together when she heard the guards referring to Tessa so respectfully.
She cried out in shock, "Does your family own this hospital?"
Tessa tugged her lips into a shadow of a smile but didn't bother answering Yanis. Instead, she turned to the guard and said, "Don't alert the cops. Just escort this lady out of my sight."
"Yes, Ms. Yates."
The guards wasted no time dragging Yanis out of the premises.
She struggled all the way out, screaming, "I'm not leaving! Let me go!"
Jasmine only managed to snap out of it after Yanis had been thrown out of the hospital. She stared at Tessa with wide eyes before blurting, "Tessa, your family owns this hospital?"
Tessa hummed in agreement.
Jasmine desperately wanted to ask about her conversation with Yanis earlier. She only managed to pick out bits and pieces. She overheard their talk about someone called Zachary and a bankrupt company called Gomez Group.
Although she was very interested in knowing the details, she decided against pestering Tessa for answers after noticing the look in Tessa's eyes.
She had a feeling that it might dredge up some painful memories for Tessa if she opened her big mouth, so it was better for her not to bring it up.
…
Tessa decided to go outside for some fresh air after waking up the following day.
She had just slid the door open when her steps came to an abrupt halt.
There was a bouquet of Pink Floyd roses lying quietly on the floor.

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....
