Tessa replied, "That's fine."
Mike was tending to the fire at the stove, while Wynn was playing with Melody's son, Finn Greene.
When Tessa was done washing all the vegetables and turned around, she saw Wynn and Finn playing together happily. She raised her eyebrow and smiled. "Wynn, I never took you to be the type who likes kids."
Wynn had always maintained a cold expression no matter where she went, exuding a cruel and ruthless pressure in the air around her.
She did not look like the type to like kids.
Wynn held a toy figurine as she played with Finn, replying expressionlessly, "This little thing is quite fun."
Tessa, Melody, and Mike all fell into silence. The atmosphere around them froze, and the awkward silence stretched on.
After a few seconds, Tessa chuckled awkwardly and turned to Melody. "I'm sorry. She's not very sensible with her words, so she doesn't know how to express herself well.
"Please don't take it the wrong way. She didn't mean it like that. What she meant to say is that Finn is really cute."
Melody's lips twitched. "Your friend is quite special."
"She rarely gets the chance to interact with children, so this is new for her," Tessa explained.
…
Once dinner was served, the group sat around the round table, ready to eat.
Suddenly, Melody's phone rang. She glanced at her phone and turned to Tessa. "It's a number from Rivertown. Could it be for you?"
Tessa replied, "I'm not sure either. Why don't you try answering it?"
Melody did as she was told. "Hello, what's this call about?"
The person on the other end said something, and Melody turned to Tessa. "Yes, she's at my place."

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. 🤣...
