His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 429
The haunted house was dimly lit with eerie red lights hanging overhead. Creepy music assailed their ears from hidden speakers, sending chills down their spines.
Tessa and Stephen were walking down the path together.
In the beginning, Tessa was only slightly scared and wasn't as terrified as Quentin.
However, her bravery was scattered to the wind when a ghost suddenly fell upon them.
The ghost was wearing a wedding dress, and her hair was a mess. Her face was a deathly shade of white, and tears of blood rolled down her cheeks. The ghost hovered midair, her dull eyes locking with Tessa's.
Tessa screamed and instinctively threw herself into Stephen's arms.
Stephen swatted the ghost away and wrapped his arms around Tessa. Then, he gently comforted her, saying softly, "It's alright, Tess. It's not real. It's just a prop."
The ghost wasn't even human.
Tessa remained in Stephen's embrace, trembling in fear.
Stephen continued to hug her, softly patting her back. He soothed her frayed nerves, murmuring words of comfort. "There, there. Don't be scared."
It took a while for Tessa to calm down.
She distanced herself from Stephen's arms and whispered, "I'm so sorry about that. I was startled, and I just…"
"It's alright," Stephen replied. His voice was filled with concern as he asked, "Are you okay? We can leave if you aren't."
"I'm fine. It was just so sudden, so I…" she trailed off, her voice barely audible toward the end.
Stephen could tell that Tessa was frightened.
He didn't make a comment about her state of mind. He only hummed in acknowledgement before holding Tessa's hand.
Tessa stiffened when she felt the warm sensation against her palm.
Still, she relaxed a moment later.
She didn't draw her hand away. Instead, she allowed him to hold her hand, leading her down the path in the haunted house.
Regardless, the jumpscare earlier had left a lingering sense of terror in Tessa's heart.

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. 🤣...
