His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 398
Maisy pressed her palms together and bowed slightly toward Tessa, biting her lower lip as she pleaded pitifully.
"Mrs. Jacobson, I was wrong. I really was. I know I made a mistake. Please don't be angry at me. You're so beautiful and kind. Someone as kind as you wouldn't hold a grudge, right?"
She batted her large, overly dramatic eyes and flashed her most pleading look.
"I really need this job. Please, don't let them fire me. You're the prettiest, nicest person ever—I mean it. Please don't be mad, beautiful lady."
Just then, the soft chime of the elevator echoed through the lobby. The doors of the executive elevator opened.
Stephen stepped out first, followed closely by Samson. Samson shot his cousin a look, the frustration clear in his expression.
Did she seriously stop the one person she absolutely should have let through?
Maisy glared back at him, her eyes wide with disbelief, as if asking how she was supposed to know. No one had told her anything.
In the time it took them to argue silently, Stephen had already walked up to Tessa.
"Tess, you came. Is there something you needed me for?" he said, his voice gentle, and his lips curved into a warm smile.
Maisy stared in disbelief. Was this really the same CEO who always wore such a cold, unreadable expression?
She had been working here for three months and had never once seen him act this soft toward anyone.
Who would believe that this woman wasn't the CEO's wife?
Tessa handed him the folder she had been holding. "I need the legal representative's signature and stamp on this."
"Got it." Stephen took the folder and passed it to Samson.
"Have you eaten?" he asked her again.
Tessa nodded. "Yes. Just get the documents signed and stamped. I'll be taking them with me."
Stephen's gaze lingered on her. His eyes were soft, like sunlight on a quiet lake. "There's no rush. Come upstairs for coffee?"
"No. I still have things to do." Tessa raised her wrist and checked the time.
Maisy noticed the fleeting disappointment in his eyes.
Good grief. So this was the cold, untouchable CEO? Why did he suddenly look a little… humble?
She glanced between the two of them, her curiosity practically radiating. She pressed her tongue against the inside of her cheek, watching the scene unfold like a live soap opera.
Samson cast her a sharp look, clearly warning her to stop staring unless she wanted to risk her job.

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...
