His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 470

Summer was grinning when she asked again, "Who's got the Ace of Hearts?"

Stephen's demeanor had turned extremely frigid while Marissa pursed her lips and revealed her card.

The silence in the room was deafening.

Stephen's face was dark when he looked at Marissa coldly. Everyone could sense the waves of anger rolling off Stephen's body and didn't dare say a word.

Tessa let out a mocking laugh suddenly. She pinned Summer with an icy gaze and said, "Ms. Heatherson, you sure make great choices."

Summer stuck her tongue out at Tessa before a grin broke across her face. She matched Tessa's gaze steadily. "It's just a coincidence."

Marissa looked at Tessa with a troubled expression. "Tessa, I'm so sorry. Summer didn't know that you've gotten back together with Stephen. Let me apologize in her stead."

"It looks to me that Ms. Heatherson doesn't feel a shred of remorse," Tessa said, not even bothering to temper her icy expression.

"Why are you apologizing to her, Marissa?" Summer asked. "We didn't do anything wrong. It's just a game, isn't it? Everyone else is playing along, so why does she have to be the exception?"

Marissa's face darkened. She felt like she was caught between a rock and a hard place.

"That's enough, Summer!" Marissa retorted sternly, wearing an upset expression.

Summer's gleeful smile melted away when she realized that Marissa was being serious, her expression morphing into a cold one. "What are you trying to say, Marissa? I'm trying to help you! Everyone knows that you've liked Stephen for years. Why would you let a golden opportunity like this slip through your fingers?"

Marissa turned indignant. She yelled, "I don't need your help! Don't stir up any trouble!"

"Trouble?" Summer barked out a condescending laugh. "Look me in the eye and tell me that you don't want to kiss him."

Fury burned in Marissa's eyes. Summer had exposed her deepest desires in front of everyone, leaving her in a tough spot. She couldn't deny that deep down, she wanted to kiss Stephen. But there was no way she could ever admit it aloud. She didn't want Tessa to start hating her because of it.

"Sorry for ruining the mood." Marissa turned to look at everyone and apologized. "You can continue playing." She then grabbed Summer and dragged her toward the exit..

"Let go of me!" Summer yelled. "I can't stand your fake act any longer! Why on earth would you become friends with your rival? Do you have any idea how pathetic you look?"
