His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 390
Dinner was a battlefield in disguise.
Lester and Stephen exchanged subtle jabs, each refusing to back down.
Tessa pretended not to notice while Marissa did her best to ignore it as well.
After the meal, Stephen offered to drive Tessa and Seline home.
"I drove myself here," Tessa replied.
"Then let me ride with you. We're headed in the same direction anyway," Stephen said smoothly.
Tessa paused. "Aren't you taking Ms. Scott home?" she asked, glancing at Marissa.
"She drove here too," Stephen answered without even sparing Marissa a glance. His tone softened when he turned to Tessa.
She shot him an annoyed glare. "Didn't you also drive? Why do I have to take you?"
"Quentin messaged me just now. His car broke down on the road. The tow truck won't be there for another hour, and he's in a hurry to get home. I had my driver pick him up since he's nearby. I brought the driver out with me today anyway."
Lester let out a cold laugh, his tone laced with sarcasm. "What an odd coincidence."
Stephen smiled. "Isn't it?"
Lester fell silent. Tessa clearly didn't buy it.
To prove his point, Stephen pulled out his phone and dialed Quentin. He even put it on speaker.
"Quentin, your car broke down, right? I'm having the driver come get you now. I happen to be nearby."
Quentin picked up immediately and played along without missing a beat.
"Yeah, didn't I just tell you? Why are you calling again? Hurry up, I've got something urgent to do."
"Wait there. He's on his way," Stephen finally said.
After ending the call, Stephen looked at Tessa with an arched brow, his expression seeming to say that he had not been lying. Then, he waved for the driver to leave with the car.
Before Tessa could say anything, Marissa spoke up first. "Stephen, let me take you home."

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....
