After speaking, Paul turned and walked toward the door. The two security guards dragged Simon out of the office.
Simon struggled and shouted loudly, "Ms. Scott, please give me one more chance! I swear I'll do better!"
Marissa pressed her lips into a tight line, her expression dark with anger. She gave no response.
Only after Simon had been taken out did she speak, her voice cold.
"Notify the staff. I'm calling for a meeting in ten minutes in the conference room. I will be announcing new appointments for the project manager and deputy manager roles."
"Yes, Ms. Scott," Zeke replied.
…
Under the direction of the newly appointed manager, the entire department worked overtime for a full week, racing against the clock to revise the proposal.
At last, they produced a version that satisfied Marissa.
She brought the new project file to Jacobson Corporation in person.
Since returning to the country, she had already visited the Jacobson Corporation headquarters several times.
The new receptionist at the front desk, Maisy Preston, recognized her on sight.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Scott," she greeted warmly.
Marissa stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the 27th floor that sat just below the executive suite.
Only the CEO's private elevator led to the top level, so each time she came to meet Stephen, she had to wait for him in the reception lounge one floor below.
As Marissa entered the elevator, Tessa walked through the main doors of Jacobson Corporation's headquarters.

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
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. 🤣...
