His Unveiled Passion




Marissa called out to Stephen, "Stevie, what a coincidence! Are you here to see

Tessa to discuss one of your company's litigation cases, too?"

Marissa and Tessa were on friendly terms now.

After Tessa saved her, Marissa was deeply grateful to her. As they spent more

time together, she was eventually impressed by Tessa's character and personality.

They bonded so well that at one point, she wondered, "Just where have you been

all my life, Tessa?"

Still, even though she was now friends with Tessa, that didn't mean that her

feelings for Stephen had changed.

So, Marissa was still somewhat upset when she saw him seek Tessa out at the

law firm.

Stephen paused in his tracks and looked over. "I'm not here for business. I came

because I wanted to see her."

It was more than obvious just what he was implying.

The smile on Marissa's face stiffened.

However, she quickly composed herself and said, "I'm here to see her as well.

Why don't we head up together?"

Meanwhile, Tessa had just left her office and was walking over to Jasmine's desk

to go over some work-related matters with her.

She was just going into detail when she caught sight of a pair walking toward her

from the corner of her eye. She blinked at the sight and wondered, "Why are

Stephen and Marissa coming in together?"

Their appearance together immediately breathed life into whispered discussions

around them.

They were indirectly giving birth to all sorts of rumors by walking into the office side by side like that. After all, they were both attractive individuals. So, it was no wonder that the staff in her office couldn't help but gossip about Stephen and

Marissa.

"Tessa, I ran into Stevie downstairs just now, so we came up together," Marissa

said with a smile as she approached Tessa.

Tessa couldn't help but notice that Marissa was explaining herself. It was as if she

were worried that Tessa might misunderstand.

Tessa looked away and hummed indifferently.

Stephen clarified yet again, "I didn't come with her. We only met at the parking lot."

Tessa looked as though she didn't care at all, replying noncommittally, "Yes, she

said that earlier."

Then, she resumed her discussion with Jasmine.

"I'll wait for you in your office, then," Marissa said.

Tessa nodded. "Alright."

Marissa then promptly headed for Tessa's office.

Stephen then chimed in, "I'll sit in the lounge and wait for you there."

He had chosen to do so to avoid being alone with Marissa.

That was smart of him. A flash of mirth appeared in Tessa's eyes.

Stephen had always been a detail-oriented man. Regardless, she only gave him

a

hum of acknowledgement.

A hunch? She was right on the money.

Jasmine continued, "So, did you two

Aren't we friends? Tell me I'm

literally your number one shipper.

Tessa flicked Jasmine's forehead in

amusement and teased, "Get back

to work. Look at you gossiping with

your boss during working hours. Are

you trying to get fired?"

Jasmine immediately mimed zipping her lips.
