Chapter 50
A few years ago, Ralph had reprimanded Stephen because he had gotten to a fight. Fortunately, no one had ever uncovered the reason why he fought back then.
This time, he couldn’t afford to let his family know he had fought over Tessa.
Otherwise, their engagement might be postponed or even canceled.
Samson wiped the sweat off his forehead as a chill ran down his splne. He nodded quickdy and said, “I understand.”
“Go take care of the admission procedure,” Stephen instructed.
“Right away, Mr. Jacobson.”
From his bed, Zachary had overheard every word of their conversation.
He smirked and raised an eyebrow “Afraid of letting your family know you got into a fight? What are you? A child?”
Stephenchucked and cast a mocking glance over at Zachary, “The only person who needs to know is my fiancée,” he replied.
The word “fine” hit Zachary like a trock
Zachary was dejected. He slumped back against the bed and stared blandy at the Ivdrip, watching the liquid slowly trickle down.
The pain from his wounds was nothing compared to the ache in his chest.
He still couldn’t accept the fact that Tessa had a flanote that was not him.
No, it had to be a lie. Maybe she was doing this because he had told her he didn’t want to marry her. She must’ve found a replacement just to provoke him. Yes, that had to be it. Tessa loved him so deeply that she couldn’t live without him. There was no way she could be with another man. It was impossible. Zachary clung to that thought to reassure himself.
He turned to look at Stephen with a mocking gaze and said, “You’re just someone she hired to provoke me, right? Isn’t it a trend to rent boyfriends online now? What’s your rate? I’ll pay you ten times that. Leave her. Right now.”
Stephen Langhed out of frustration and raised an eyebrow, “If living in denial makes you feel better, go ahead. I won’t stop you,” he replied.
Tessa was dumbfounded by Zachary’s words. She glared at him and said, “Are you crazy? Do you really think I’d stoop so low as to take a fiancé just to lie to you?” Zachary refused to belleve her. He was cominced that Stephen was nothing more than a fake.
Wendy sobbed, “Who did this to you? Did you call the police?”
still, he said nothing.
Urdazed, Wendy continuously cried and rambled on
Zachary eventually got annoyed, so he snapped, “Can you leave me alone? I need some peace,”
“Wendy sniffled “1-1’ll stay here and take care of you”
Het heart ached to see him in ucli a state.
“There’s no need.” Zachary dismissed her coldly. “I’ve already called a nurse Go back. ”
He didn’t want to see her if it weren’t for Wendy, none of this would have happened between him and Tessa.

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....
