His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 477

That night, Tessa returned to the Yates residence after being buried in work the whole day. Marianne came out to greet her after she parked her car.

She had a troubled look on her face as she pulled Tessa to the side and whispered, "Tessa, your father found out about you getting back together with Stephen. He's stewing in anger in the living room at the moment.

"If you don't want to deal with him now, you should go home for today. Come back a few days later after his anger has subsided."

Tessa's heart dropped to her gut. She didn't expect Samuel to find out so quickly. Her eyes lowered as she mulled over her thoughts for a moment. She said, "It's alright, Ms. Connors. I'll go in and face him. This is something that I'll have to deal with sooner or later. I can't keep running forever."

Marianne sighed. "Alright, then. Have a good talk with your father. He loves you a lot. If you explain the situation properly to him, I'm sure he'll come around and support your decision."

"I understand. Thank you, Ms. Connors."

Tessa sucked in a deep breath before she headed into the villa. She made her way up to the first floor, to the hall where she knew she would find Samuel. As Marianne said, Samuel was sitting on the couch with a hardened expression.

"Dad," Tessa called as she entered.

Samuel shot a cold look at her. His tone was unkind when he said, "So, you still acknowledge me as your father, do you?"

"Of course," Tessa replied, keeping her expression neutral. "Why wouldn't I?"

She walked over to the armchair and sank into it.

"When did you get back together with Stephen? Why didn't you tell me?" he asked icily.

Tessa calmly took a sip of her tea before she answered, "Well, I was planning to tell you today. That's why I'm here."

Samuel scoffed. "Would you have told me if I didn't ask?"

"I can't tell you anything if you never ask in the first place," Tessa shot back with a smile.

"Stop playing your word games with me." Samuel glared at Tessa. He sounded indignant when he exclaimed, "As your father, why did I have to find out that you're currently in a relationship from someone else?"

Tessa wasn't going to take the bait. "But isn't that always the case? There are so many people and sets of eyes in the outside world. It's not like I can tell all of them to stop looking at what I'm doing, isn't that right?"
