His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 74

An hour later, Tessa arrived at Sarah's office.

She placed the contract on Sarah's desk and said, "Ms. Young, I have completed the task you assigned. The five-year legal advisory contract has been signed, and the 15 thousand dollar fee has been transferred to the firm's account.

"Additionally, I've secured three payment dispute cases and one patent infringement case. All four cases are under general agency agreements, with the attorney fees paid upfront. Including the 15 thousand dollar legal advisory fee, the total comes up to 80 thousand dollars.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the finance department for the transaction records. I also have the payment receipts right here."

With that, Tessa clicked her phone's photo album open and showed Sarah the payment receipt screenshots. "I've also covered the law firm's losses."

Sarah flipped through the contracts in disbelief. Upon seeing the signature and stamps on it, her eyes flashed with shock. "Yates Corporation… Samuel Yates is your…"

Tessa smiled. "He's my dad."

The contract slipped from Sarah's hand and landed on the floor with a thud. Sarah whipped her head up in shock. "You're the heir of Yates Corporation?"

After facing a series of troublesome events, Tessa was no longer interested in keeping a low profile. She said proudly, "That's right."

Before Sarah could even process her thoughts, she received another call.

"Ms. Young, what background does Ms. Yates have? How does she know the president of Jacobson Corporation? Our president, Mr. Loewe, was admitted to the hospital last night after getting beaten up by Mr. Jacobson's bodyguards.

"Then, early this morning, auditors and tax authorities showed up at our company for an inspection. I've been asking around and found out that all of this was on Mr. Jacobson's orders."

Jacobson Corporation? Sarah's face turned ashen, and she broke out in a cold sweat. She hung up the phone, feeling her heart pounding in her chest.

"You… You know the president of Jacobson Corporation?"

Tessa crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Sarah coldly. "Yes. He's my fiancé, the rumored sugar daddy who drives a Cullinan."

Sarah stuttered, "I-I'm sorry. I didn't know you were Mr. Jacobson's fiancée…"

At that moment, Sarah finally realized that she had been fooled by Jacqueline.

"It's not that big of a deal. Just find an excuse to resign, and I'll recommend you to another law firm. If the Jacobson family really does come looking for you, just insist you had no idea of those two's true character.

"If anything happens, I'll cover for you. But if you dare leak even a word of this, I won't let you off the hook."

Sarah replied, "Don't worry. As long as you help me, I'll keep my mouth shut."

…

The next day, Tessa drove to court for a hearing.

After finishing the session, she was about to leave the courthouse when she bumped into Zachary. She looked at him warily. "What are you doing here?"

Zachary looked at her with an affectionate gaze. "I know you work at Shelton Law Firm and that you had a hearing today, so I waited here to see you."

Tessa narrowed her eyes, anger flickering within them. "Did you look into me?"
