His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 44
Chapter 44
Tessa and her colleagues gathered at Union Restaurant, a high–end establishment located near Shelton Law Firm.
All the private recisa excipit for the VIP room were filled with Shelton’s staff.
The private room where Tessa sat buzzed with conversation.
“Ms. Yates, you’re so generous, Going straight for Union Restaurais, young female lawyer teased with a smile. “The last time I was here was during the firm’s annual dinner when the boss foored the bill.”
Sarah–chuckled and added, “Ms. Yates is young and accomplished. It looks like she’s done well for herself over the years. With more than a hundred of us here, it seems like tonight will pot a dent in your wallet.”
“Ms. Yates must be very capable,” Tomm chimed in with a laugh
A woman then mockingly said, “Wow. Ms. Yates. Are you sure you can afford this? The average cost per person here is at least 100 dollars. Add drinks and tonight’s bill might cost you three months of your salary. Why don’t we pick somewhere more ationlable so you don’t strain your budget?”
The woman who just spoke was Yasmin Collins, another lawyer from the ligation department.
Tessa had met Yasmin earlier that day and thought she had a disagreeable character. Now, her initial impression seemed accurate. Yasmin appeared as difficult a character as she had anticipated.
Tsmiled lightly, “It’s time. I can afford it
oh, so Ms. Young was right,” Yasmin continued with a sarcastic edge. “Ms. Yates must’ve made a fortune these past few years. Cace to share your secrets with us?” Tessa was undazed as she simply responded, “What secrets could there ber We’re all lawyers here. Big cases bring in more money whereas small ones bring in less. “Besides, I’m not eansing as much as you, Ms. Collins. It’s been three year and I still can’t afford a car. I heard you’ve already bought a house in Rivertow=” She was speaking the truth Her salary couldn’t cover the cost of a decent car–not that she needed to save for one.
Samuel had gifted her a Porsche gin and a tolls–Royce Phantom, both of which sat untouched in the family garage. She hadn’t driven the Maserati that Uriah gave her in ages either.
Recently, she had been using the glacier–blue Bentley Continental that Stephen had gifted her.
Yasmin knew nothing about Tessa’s family background. Hearing Tessa’s words, Yasmin assumed snugly that Tessa struggled financially.
Yasmin seed pleased by that information. She was convinced that Tessa put on a show of generosity just to impress her colleagues. Their little episode passed quickly.
Tessa soon sailed and said, “Let’s order. Feel free to pick anything you like.
“Well, I won’t hold back then, Yasmin said with a grin and handed the menu to Sarah, Ms. Young, you should go first.”
Yasmin was well adept at navigating workplace dynamics

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...
