The caller's voice was urgent. "Something bad has happened, Mr. Jacobson!"
Over at the detention center, Susan claimed she was pregnant and needed to be taken to the hospital as a checkup was required.
On the way there, a car recklessly charged toward them, violently crashing into the vehicle Susan was in.
A few strong men then got out of the car, each highly skilled int heir own right.
Susan was taken by them.
The personnel assigned to monitor her, who was in the same car, suffered serious injuries. The vehicle was severely damaged and couldn't chase after them immediately.
After hearing the report, Caleb's face was filled with disbelief. "She was kidnapped?"
"What happened?" Sophia asked.
Caleb took a deep breath, his shoulders slumping. "It's Susan."
"What? Wasn't she already arrested?" Sophia was shocked.
Caleb frowned in thought. "Dad was right. This incident isn't as simple as the Gomez family made it seem. Someone is behind her. We need to find out who it is as soon as possible.
…
Stephen spent a few days in the ICU before being transferred to a regular ward.
It felt like a long dream.
After the dream came to a close, Stephen felt utterly exhausted, and even breathing felt tiring.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The strong smell of disinfectant filled the air.
Sunlight poured in through the window, gently spreading across his face.
However, the hospital bed rose at the next moment.
"I'm adjusting your bed so you can sit up and eat comfortably."
Hearing this, Stephen felt a slight sense of disappointment and couldn't help finding it amusing. He was acting like a lovestruck teenager.
Tessa set up the small table on the hospital bed, placed a napkin on it, and opened the insulated container containing steamed carrots and mashed potatoes with poached chicken.
"The doctor said you need to watch your diet during your hospital stay, hence this combination."
Stephen's gaze was gentle as he quietly watched Tessa's face.
Over the past few days, that face had repeatedly appeared in his dreams.
Waking up to find her by his side, the overwhelming happiness seemed almost unreal to him.

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....
