His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 379

Samuel glanced at Marianne at this moment.

Marianne understood and spoke to Cecilia in Britharian. "Cecilia, there's something I'd like to give you. Please come with me."

She then brought Cecilia upstairs and took out a gift and an envelope she had prepared beforehand. Inside the envelope was a thick stack of Brithar dollars.

"Cecilia, I'd like to thank you for treating Seline throughout this time. I know that Mr. Jacobson has already paid you your salary. This is a small token of appreciation from our family, so we hope you'll accept it."

Unable to turn down the heartfelt gesture, Cecilia accepted the money and the gift.

Later that night, Marianne had personally cooked a spread of Tessa's favourite dishes.

Seline had a full recovery, and Tessa had been discharged from the hospital. It was a good day for the Yates family.

The family sat around the table together, the atmosphere warm and lively.

This warmth was something that had not happened within the Yates family for a long time now.

…

The next afternoon, after Cecilia had left, Tessa accompanied Seline to watch cartoons at home.

Suddenly, a video call from Lester popped up.

Tessa was slightly confused. Why was Lester suddenly video calling her? Usually, he would only call her whenever he had something urgent to say. If he did not have anything urgent, he would just text her.

It was the first time he had video called her.

Confused, Tessa still answered the phone.

However, to her surprise, it wasn't Lester's face that appeared on her screen, but his cousin, Cassandra.

Cassandra looked adorable as she was wearing the pink Prada clip Tessa had given her back then. She had also tied her hair into two ponytails.

When Cassandra saw Tessa answer her call, she immediately smiled brightly as a pair of dimples appeared on her cheeks.

"Ms. Yates," Cassandra called out. Her voice was soft and sweet, much like her personality. When she called out for Tessa, her voice seemed to have increased an octave.

Tessa was fond of Cassandra and quickly responded with a smile. "Oh, it's Cassie."

Seline obediently handed Tessa's phone back to her and said, "Tessa, I've finished talking to Cassie. Cassie's cousin would like to talk to you."

Once Tessa took her phone back, she immediately saw Lester's face on the screen.

Smiling, Lester said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. I gave my phone to Cassie to watch a cartoon, but I didn't know that she had tapped out of the app and video called you instead. Did she bother you?"

"She didn't."

"That's good, then."

Tessa smiled and said, "Cassie's adorable. Seline likes playing with her, and I like her too."

Lester's expression softened as he smiled. "Seline is also extremely cute. I heard from Cassie that they've made plans for a playdate tomorrow. Will it be alright if I bring her to your place tomorrow?"

"It's no trouble," Tessa replied.

"Alright, then. I'll send her over there tomorrow morning. I just so happened to have a few cases that I'd like to discuss with you too."

"Sure."
