His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 388

Lester had chosen a Lospian restaurant with an incredible ambience.

The restaurant was decorated mainly in warm tones, and the soft lighting shining down from the chandeliers bathed the place in a warm and dreamy glow.

There were several colourful vintage oil paintings hung on the walls, adding an artistic touch to the place.

Lester held Cassandra's hands while Tessa held Seline's.

A waiter led them to a table by the window that had the best view within the restaurant.

There was a fresh rose in the middle of the glass table, exuding a faint fragrance that gave a calming effect.

The two children sat side by side, and since the round table wasn't particularly big, Lester and Tessa sat quite close to each other.

Soon, classical piano music filled the air, sounding both soft and gentle.

Lester ordered some food for the two children before handing Tessa the menu.

When Tessa looked up, her gaze suddenly collided with a pair of deep and dark eyes. Her expression tensed, and her smile vanished.

Stephen was standing nearby as he looked at her with an intense gaze.

There was a beautiful woman with wavy hair standing next to him.

Although they had not met in years, Tessa could still recognize that the woman was Marissa.

When Tessa recalled how Sienna had informed her that Marissa had returned to the country for Stephen, she felt a weight in her heart before she quietly collected herself.

Lester had also noticed the two.

He gave Stephen a meaningful look and smiled. "Mr. Jacobson, what a coincidence. Is this your girlfriend?"

Tessa's tone remained impassive, and her expression was neutral as she replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Jacobson. I've been organizing all the cases your company has entrusted to us, and I've reviewed them all twice now."

The table wasn't big, so when Stephen sat down, it felt a little cramped with five people sitting around the table.

Marissa stood by the side and smiled, "Steve, it's after work hours now. You should keep the business talk for some other time. Why don't we go and sit over there? Tessa's still on a date, so we shouldn't disturb them."

Stephen's gaze darkened even further as he looked at Tessa with a smile that did not reach his eyes. "You're on a date?"

"We're just having a meal," Tessa said, frowning slightly. Her subconscious reaction to explain things to him caused Stephen's gaze to soften.

However, he still felt jealous.

He had just let his guard down a little, yet Lester had already managed to ask Tessa out for a meal.
