His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 96
Before he came to realize it, the small table was already arranged with the various dishes.
"You made so much." Stephen smiled gently. "What's this?"
"Pumpkin soup."
Tessa picked up the bowl, scooped a spoonful, blew on it to cool it, and brought it to Stephen's mouth. "Try it."
Stephen smiled and lowered his gaze, but suddenly his smile stiffened.
"What happened to your hand?"
There was a blister on Tessa's right index finger.
It was too late for Tessa to hide it, so she had no choice but to fess up. "I… accidentally scalded myself in the kitchen just now. It's nothing much, just a small blister."
Stephen's eyes turned red. "Does it hurt?"
Tessa shook her head. "Not at all."
Stephen drank the soup, gently held Tessa's wrist, and lowered his head to slowly blow on the blister.
After a few gentle breaths, Stephen looked up at Tessa, his eyes filled with distress. "Don't lie to me. Burns always hurt."
Tessa's eyes reddened slightly. "It really doesn't hurt. Compared to your injuries, this is nothing."
Stephen reached out to pinch her cheek. "Tessa, if you get hurt, I feel pain. Even the smallest injury isn't okay."
Tessa bit her bottom lip lightly, her eyelashes trembling as she instinctively acted coy, "Stephen… "
Her soft and delicate voice was too much for Stephen to handle.
He pulled her closer, kissing her smooth forehead, her flushed cheeks, and her tender lips.
Tessa's ear burned, her heart melting with sweetness.
After a moment, she pressed her hand against Stephen's chest, creating some distance between them.
"Stephen, eat first, or it will get cold."
Stephen used a teasing tone, his eyes glinting playfully. "Alright. We kiss again after eating?"

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...
