His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 435
Although Stephen had used work as an excuse to ask Tessa out for lunch, there were indeed a few other Jacobson Corporation cases that had yet to go to trial. So, Tessa brought those cases up during their meal.
Stephen couldn't help but chuckle. "Tess, we're currently in such a romantic spot. Are you seriously going to discuss work with me here?"
Tessa lowered her gaze, her expression calm. "Mr. Jacobson, you were the one who said you wanted to discuss the pending cases, no?"
Stephen raised a brow at her. "Fine. Let's continue."
It was far better than sitting here with nothing to say.
Tessa's gaze was calm and focused when she went into detail about her work. Meanwhile, Stephen simply watched her speak in silence, his eyes filled with nothing but tenderness for her.
Still, he seemed to be listening intently. It was as if he was genuinely treating her to a meal just so they could talk about their work.
Tessa couldn't help but find his behavior odd. So, she teased, "I thought you wouldn't be interested in the conversation, Mr. Jacobson."
Sure, they were talking about Jacobson Corporation cases, but he was the president of the company. That meant that minor cases like these weren't exactly part of his job description.
Stephen's expression grew solemn upon hearing her words. Then, he intoned seriously, "It's because this is your work. It's a job that you're passionate about. I know you love it, so I paid attention. Tess, I completely respect and support any choices you make regarding your career."
Tessa was somewhat stunned to hear him say those things. She didn't expect Stephen to give her such an earnest response.
Stephen's words had succeeded in touching a hidden corner of her heart, leaving ripples in their wake.
She had to admit that she was warmed by his sincerity.
After the meal, Tessa had to return to Everbright Law Group for work. Stephen also had to return to his company to handle matters that needed his approval So, Stephen drove Tessa to the law firm and left immediately after.
…
Tessa had to go all the way to a small county called Eraline for a hearing in early July.

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. 🤣...
