His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 207

The sky had gradually brightened as the sunshine shone through the window onto Tessa's pale complexion.

Sitting by the window for the entire night, she had only drifted into a light sleep when the sun came up.

However, her sleep was restless, and she kept dreaming about Stephen. She had even woken up in fright a few times in between.

In her last dream, she had dreamt of Stephen and Nancy holding hands as they stood before her.

Stephen's eyes had been filled with warmth, and he looked happy. He had told her he was about to get married and also reminded her to attend his wedding.

Tessa had cried in her dreams, and when she woke up, her cheeks were covered in tears.

Michelle had knocked on her door, asking, "Ms. Yates, are you awake? It's time for lunch."

Wiping her tears away, Tessa walked to open the door, answering, "Ms. Mercer, you can go ahead first. I'll take a shower and change my clothes before heading downstairs."

Seeing the dark circles around Tessa's eyes and her fragile complexion, Michelle hesitated momentarily. Then, she commented, "Ms. Yates, did you not rest well last night?"

Michelle did not use Twitter, so she did not know about the rumors circulating about Stephen. She also wasn't aware that Stephen and Tessa were engaged and that the engagement had been called off.

She only knew that Stephen and Tessa were a couple and that he cared deeply about Tessa.

Stephen had even reminded her to take good care of Tessa, so when Michelle saw Tessa looking so fragile, she could not help but ask out of concern.

Tessa was exhausted. She had only slept for five hours, which had not been fruitful. "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Michelle did not ask any more questions. Instead, she suggested, "You should go and shower. I'll put the food back in the pot to keep it warm. I'm afraid it'll get cold in a while."

"Alright. Thank you."

"No need to thank me. This is part of my job."

Once Michelle had gone downstairs, Tessa closed the door, leaned against it, and slowly slid down until she was on the ground.

She had a bunch of missed calls and unread messages on her phone, but after looking through them all, none of them were from Stephen.
