Tessa received a call the next afternoon, updating her on Gomez Corporation's latest circumstances.
"Several creditors have filed claims against the court, and Gomez Corporation's debt has now reached a total of 1.3 billion dollars.
"As Gomez Group's biggest shareholder, Zachary has abused the company's legal status and the limited liability of shareholders to evade those debts, severely harming the interests of his company's creditors.
"Several creditor companies have already submitted their evidence to court, and they're requesting that Zachary be held accountable alongside the company to pay their dues.
"All of Zachary's fixed assets have already been seized by the court. His high-value movable assets have also been seized, and his bank accounts are now frozen.
"Yanis has also contacted a lawyer to draft up a divorce agreement this morning."
Tessa wasn't surprised to hear that.
Yanis had been used to living in luxury, so how could she possibly bear to struggle and live in such conditions?
Tessa asked, "Which lawyer did she go to?"
The person on the other end replied, "Felicia Jennings from Shelton Law Firm."
Shelton Law Firm. Tessa knew that place well.
Back then, she had resigned as soon as Jacqueline had first invested in the law firm.
However, Stephen had sent the Jacobsons' elite legal team to reclaim the money Jacqueline had invested after looking into Jacqueline's finances once she had been kicked out of the Jacobson family.
Meanwhile, Tessa also had quite an impression of Felicia.
Felicia had a terrible temper and was constantly carrying negative energy around the office.
Whenever something did not go her way at work, she would lash out at her assistants and scold them over the slightest mistake. In fact, Jasmine had cried multiple times because of her.
Tessa had heard from her colleagues that Felicia had already chased away a number of assistants because of her temper.
Most of her assistants couldn't stand working with her and would last about a month before they quit. There was even a stubborn assistant who left after just one day, not even bothering to collect their pay.
Jasmine had interned at Shelton Law Firm, so she couldn't quit even if she wanted to at the time. She had no choice but to stay on for a whole year.
In judicial practice, the court won't grant a divorce if the husband disagrees the first time around. However, there had been rare cases where a divorce was granted.
To ensure that nothing went wrong, Tessa would have to personally take on Matthew and Yanis' divorce case.
…
At the end of May, Tessa's wounds had healed, and she was discharged from the hospital.
On the day that she was discharged, Samuel and Marianne had gone to pick her up. Naomi and Sienna had come as well.
Naomi had been traumatised after Caleb's suicide, and she had been receiving therapy at home for the past month. Her condition had improved significantly.
It was a Wednesday, so Jasmine and Molly had to work and could not come over.
However, Lester was able to come. Since he was a partner and one of the bosses at the law firm, he was not bound to work during regular hours.
Lester came alone, and he had not brought Cassandra with him.

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
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....
