Zachary's eyes flashed with a hint of sadness. "Tessa, I've been so lost these days. Not a second goes by where I don't think about you."
Tessa scoffed. "What does that have to do with me?"
Zachary smiled, pulled out a diamond ring from his pocket, and presented it to her. "Didn't you once say that you liked this ring? I bought it for you."
Tessa recognized the ring. It was the one she had seen in a magazine once. At the time, she was amazed by the ring's unique design and simply wanted to share her thoughts with Zachary.
But the minute he saw it, his face immediately darkened. She could clearly remember what he had told her back then.
"I can buy you anything, but not a ring. I currently have no intentions of getting married."
She had felt a little dejected by his response at the time. He had always assumed that she was desperate to get married to him.
At the thought of this, Tessa's lips curved into a taunting smirk. "Sorry, I don't like it anymore." She lifted her hand, revealing the big diamond ring on her finger. "I only like the one my fiancé gave me."
A flicker of hurt flashed in Zachary's eyes. He already knew who Tessa's fiancé was.
He was Stephen Jacobson, the most affluent person in Rivertown, president of Jacobson Corporation, and the only heir of the Jacobson family. Compared to them, the Gomez family was hardly worth mentioning.
However, Zachary still smiled. "Tessa, both of you aren't engaged yet, so he's not your fiancé."
Tessa frowned and stared at him with a disdainful gaze.
Zachary's lips curved into a smirk. "Tessa, forget about getting engaged, even married people get divorced. Getting engaged is no big deal."
Zachary swiftly dodged the blow. "Such a fiery temper. You weren't like this before. What happened to the obedient Tessa I knew?"
Tessa rolled her eyes and headed straight toward the open-air parking lot.
Zachary followed closely behind her. "Tessa, I know what I did was wrong. I'm sorry. I'm now trying to make it up to you, so would you give me a chance?
"I don't expect you to answer right away, but at least give me a chance to prove myself. I promise that from now on, I'll only be yours and stay completely faithful to you!"
Tessa sneered. "No thanks." She walked to the open-air parking lot and stopped in front of a blue Bently.
Zachary looked up at this moment. Upon seeing the car, he froze.

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....
