Tessa's dark eyes gleamed with an icy light as she retorted, "I'm afraid the one courting death is you."
Lester noticed that Bruno had nothing but ill intentions toward Tessa. As such, he instinctively stepped in front of her.
However, Tessa nudged Lester aside. "Move. I want to see just how he plans to leap to his death today."
Then, she stepped out of Lester's protective circle and sneered at Bruno. "Do you want to end up in jail again?"
"Fuck you!" Bruno cursed before charging forward.
Tessa sidestepped his attack and was just about to retaliate when someone got there first.
It happened so suddenly. Before she could do anything, a foot had shot out from the crowd, landing a harsh kick to Bruno's abdomen, sending him flying.
The crowd gasped in astonishment.
Those from Sudmere's upper crust society could hardly believe their eyes. Some even clasped their hands over their lips to stop themselves from shrieking in shock.
Who would dare to do something so bold?
That person actually sent Bruno flying in front of so many people!
They instinctively turned toward the man responsible for something so outrageous.
Their eyes widened in shock the moment they saw him.
He was absolutely gorgeous!
The man had sharp yet aristocratic features. Not only was he striking in looks, but he was also tall and well-proportioned. He exuded a chill that screamed murder as he glared at Bruno ferociously. The look he had on his face easily sent chills down everyone's spine.
As the crowd got bigger, those who recognized Stephen and Tessa had come to take a look at the fuss.
Someone suddenly said in confusion, "Isn't that Mr. Jacobson and Ms. Yates? What's going on here?"
The crowd immediately erupted with that tidbit of information.

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....
