Tessa ran downstairs and instantly saw that familiar figure standing under the eaves. He stood there in solitude with his back against her.
Despite his being slightly mysophobic, his shoes were now covered in mud, his pants stained with mud and wet patches, and specks of brown sullied his otherwise pristine clothes.
She had never seen him look so disheveled.
Her nose tingled, and an indescribable emotion stirred from within her heart.
On impulse, she ran and hugged him from behind. She then murmured softly, "You're here."
Stephen tensed. Only God knew how long he had yearned for her to hug him.
There was an orange glow across the sky, like an accidental stroke made from a painter's brush.
In the early morning, the rising mist intertwined with the clouds, like lovers reuniting after a long separation. The entire atmosphere felt warm and sweet.
As dawn approached, shadows from the trees gradually emerged. Dew fell silently, as if landing on Stephen's and Tessa's hearts, sending ripples through them.
The moment was so beautiful that it felt like a dream.
Tessa continued to hug Stephen from behind as time seemed to have paused. Stephen didn't dare to move, afraid that any movement would wake him from his dream.
Neither of them spoke, and it felt like a century had passed before Stephen finally turned around.
The first thing Tessa saw was Stephen's Adam apple bobbing as he gulped nervously. Then, she looked up at his dark eyes.
His gaze was fixed on her, and his eyes were filled with surging emotion.
Tessa could not withstand his intense gaze and looked away. She then mumbled, "Didn't I tell you not to come? Why did you still come here?"
Stephen cupped her cheeks with both hands, gently tilting her head to face him. He looked dashing, and his voice was as warm and soft as a spring breeze. "I came here because I missed you."
Her eyes teared up as she looked at him without blinking.

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. 🤣...
