Sienna nodded. "She's one of the Smiths, isn't she? I actually bumped into Diana at the mall a few days ago. What about her?"
Naomi didn't even hesitate to drop the bombshell, saying gloomily, "She likes Quentin."
"What?" Tessa and Sienna blurted in unison.
Naomi mumbled glumly, "I only found out about it yesterday. She suddenly came to me and asked me whether Quentin was home. Then, she started bombarding me with questions about what he was doing and who he was seeing. Everything, really.
"When I prodded her, I found out that she's had a crush on Quentin for over a year."
Sienna said, "That's interesting. Diana doesn't look like the type to have a crush. Hasn't she dated several guys over the years?"
Naomi replied, "According to her, she's only making her rounds with men to make Quentin jealous."
Tessa and Sienna exchanged a look through the screen.
Why did Diana word that statement in a way that made it seem as though Quentin was interested in her? Why did Diana think that Quentin would get jealous if she dated someone else?
Naomi must've felt awful hearing that.
Just as they expected, Naomi continued huffily, "I confronted Quentin about it and asked him whether he liked Diana. He denied it, but I was still so mad that I got into a fight with him."
She inhaled deeply and hissed, "Diana tried to get close to me so she could sink her claws into Quentin. How do I know this, you may ask? Well, she bought me a Louis Vuitton purse as a bribe."
Naomi's lips curled into a sneer. "Do I look like I can't afford a Louis Vuitton purse? Screw her and that damned purse of hers."
Sienna quickly comforted her, saying, "Quentin probably doesn't have any feelings for Diana. If he did, they would've gotten together long ago. Besides, I can tell that Quentin's serious about you. You two should talk things out instead of letting some random outsider ruin your relationship."
Tessa chimed in, "I agree with Sienna. Plus, you should be able to tell how much Quentin cares about you, right?"
Naomi snorted disdainfully. "Please. Men are all liars. Talk is cheap, and sweet talk is even more so. As for Quentin caring about me… How am I supposed to know if it isn't just an act?
"Look at Henry! Hasn't he been really nice to his current girlfriend? Yet, he also told us that he wasn't serious about her."
Sienna pursed her lips and thought to herself, "Naomi has a point. Henry is a bit of a scumbag."
Henry had been dating that college girl for at least half a year. However, he had never once brought her to meet his friends or family. It was clear that he had no intentions of introducing her to his social circle. In other words, he wasn't serious about her at all.

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. 🤣...
