Early the next day, Lester brought Cassie to the Yates residence.
When he arrived at the entrance of the gated community, Stephen's car was right behind him.
Stephen had been to Everbright Law Group a few times now. He had seen Lester drive out of the parking lot in a black Maybach twice, and he even remembered the car plate.
Once they entered the gated community, Stephen quickly sped up and overtook Lester's car before he slowed down again.
Inside the Maybach, Lester smirked as he watched the black Cullinan cut right in front of him.
It was a small world indeed.
Lester wasn't annoyed with Stephen's provocation. Instead, he slowed his car down and followed behind Stephen's car leisurely.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the Yates residence.
Stephen and Lester parked their cars, and the two men got down simultaneously.
The gentle morning breeze blew through the nearby woods, carrying the fresh scent of grass and flowers, swaying the branches of the roadside trees. The morning sun was also soft and warm.
Despite the beautiful morning, the atmosphere between the two men was far from amiable. Instead, there was a strong and thick sense of animosity between the two.
Stephen's eyes were dark and cold as he looked at Lester sharply. With a cold smirk, he asked, "Mr. Cooper, why are you at the Yates residence so early in the morning?"
Although there was a smile on Lester's face, his gaze remained ice-cold as he said, "That's none of your concern."
Stephen's gaze remained cold. "You should not try to covet what isn't yours."
Unwilling to back down,Lester met Stephen's eyes and asked, "Are you sure that the person you're trying to covet belongs to you?"
Sneering, Stephen replied, "She belongs to me and only me."
Lester was standing by the door, so Tessa could see his side profile through the iron gate.
However, Stephen was standing behind the wall, and his figure was blocked by a tree in the gardens. Hence, Tessa did not see him.
Hearing Tessa's voice, Lester's dark expression immediately softened. He turned around and yelled, "I'm coming!"
Then, he turned to Stephen and smiled. "I'll get going now, Mr. Jacobson."
Lester drove into the Yates residence's courtyard to park his car. Then, he got down, walked to the backseat, and opened the door for Cassandra. "Let's go. It's time to play with Tessa."
"Yay!" Cassandra cheered excitedly.
Stephen watched Lester and slowly clenched his hands into fists.

The readers' comments on the novel: His Unveiled Passion
I know this isn’t Stephen’s fault but I still hated how he was so careless around this bitch even after Tessa already told him it’s obvious that this bitch likes him and she looked at Tessa with hostility. If Tessa breaks up with him again, I’ll even support her. Ugh. Good luck on winning Tessa back again, Stephen. Tss. I so hate these updates....
Nooooo! Not again! We don't need a twist like this. Is it too hard for the writer to conclude with..."and they live happily ever after"?...
Finally getting Stephen and Tess back together then to tear them apart with foolishness. This is craziness...
Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
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....
