"Hello, Mr. Jacobson. This is the housekeeper taking care of Ms. Yates. She hasn't been in good spirits since yesterday. I'm not sure what happened, but she didn't eat dinner last night or breakfast this morning.
"When I went to check on her just now, her face was pale, and she had dark circles under her eyes like she hadn't slept all night."
Stephen fell silent for a moment before saying in a strained voice, "Try to get her to eat something."
"I made all her favorite dishes. She said she'd come down to eat after taking a shower." The housekeeper paused before adding, "But she really doesn't look well. Are you coming over to check on her?"
Stephen's lips pressed into a thin line. His voice carried a hint of exhaustion. "No... Someone's coming to take her home today."
"Oh, alright then."
...
After her shower, Tessa went downstairs.
The housekeeper brought the food to the table. "Ms. Yates, these are all your favorite dishes. You must be starving since you didn't eat last night or this morning. Please eat more."
"Thank you." Tessa had little energy, her eyelids heavy from severe sleep deprivation, and her head throbbed with pain.
"Go ahead and eat. I'll be in the kitchen cleaning up."
She looked at the steaming, fragrant dishes spread out on the table, yet she had no appetite.
She sipped a few spoonfuls of soup, then picked up her phone to check her WhatsApp. There was still nothing from Stephen.
The housekeeper had mentioned that Stephen had specifically instructed her to take good care of Tessa and to report any issues to him immediately.
By now, he should know how she was doing, right? So why was there still no word from him?
Did he really... not care anymore?
She lowered her eyes, and a bitter ache spread in her chest.

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....
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...
