His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 115

After finishing their meal, Tessa nudged Stephen toward the door, her cheeks tinged with a rosy hue.

"Alright, Stephen, tto go. | made plans with Naomi and Sienna to go

shopping, so | won't have tto entertain you today."

Stephen stood his ground, his gaze tinged with a trace of hurt. "Have you already grown tired of me?"

At nearly six foot three, he was a solid wall, completely unshakable. No matter how hard Tessa pushed, he didn't

budge an inch.

She pouted, her voice turning coquettish without even realizing it. "Of course not! How could | ever get tired of

you? But this is a girls' day out. Having a big man like you tagging along might not be the best idea."

Stephen raised an eyebrow. "What's so inconvenient aboutcoming? | can carry your bags. You three are

definitely going to shop till you drop. How much can those tiny arms of yours even hold?"

Tessa huffed in exasperation. "Ugh, just go already! | still need to do my makeup | don't have tto deal with

you."

Stephen's eyes sparkled with amusement. "I could do your makeup for you," he teased.

Tessa scoffed. "Yeah, right. You'd probably makelook like a ghost."

She softened her voice, coaxing him as if he were a stubborn child. "Alright, alright. I'll cfind you tonight,

okay?"

"Promise?"

She nodded earnestly. "Promise. Why would I lie to you?"

Stephen finally relented. "Fine. Callwhen you're done shopping. I'll cpick you up."

"Okay."

Inside Sienna's private villa, laughter erupted like a chorus of bells.

"Tess, don't be shy! We're all friends here-spill the tea! Does Stephen really have issues in that department?"

Naomi was laughing so hard she had to clutch her stomach, tears glistening in her eyes. "Sienna, you won't

believe this last night, my brother toldTess got drunk at the bar and told everyone that Stephen was... well,

not very capable down there! | nearly died laughing! Tess, you're an absolute legend!"

With that, she pulled out her phone. "And guess what? My brother senta video. You have to see this."

She tapped play and held the screen up for Sienna.

"When Stephen cto pick Tess up from the bar, she wouldn't let go of him. She even asked for kisses—right

there, in front of everyone!"

Naomi smirked, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "Wow, Tess, | had no idea you were this bold when you're

drunk! We've been friends for years, and this is the first tI'm seeing this side of you."

"Wait, what?" Tessa's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the video. "The guy | was clinging to last night...

was Stephen?"

On the screen, her intoxicated self wrapped around him, her voice so sweet it made her skin crawl.

"Stephen... kiss me...

"Just one little kiss..."

At that moment, Tessa wished the earth would swallow her whole.

"Ahhh!" she shrieked, her face so red it could catch fire. "This is beyond humiliating! A complete disaster! Delete

it! Right now!"

With that, she lunged at Naomi, desperately trying to grab the phone.

But Naomi was too quick, dodging effortlessly. "Not happening! Delete it? Are you

kidding? This is legendary! Right, Sienna?"

Sienna lounged gracefully on the couch, a knowing smile tugging at her lips.

Unlike Naomi's playful teasing, her

voice was calm and composed.

"Honestly, Tess, | don't find it

embarrassing at all. If anything, it's

kind of sweet. I've never seen you so affectionate before."

"You two are the absolute worst!" Tessa groaned, stomping her foot in frustration. "Just delete it already!"

Naomi swiftly dodged Tessa's frantic attempts to grab her phone, holding it high.

Her eyes suddenly gleamed with excitement, as if she had just uncovered a scandalous secret.

"Wait, hold up! Look at Stephen! That man is definitely aroused. He's not even trying to hide it-his eyes are

practically on fire! Damn, Tess, you really got to him!

"Who would've thought? The guy who's always as cold as ice got completely melted by just a few words from

you. Tess, you've got sserious power!"

With a sly grin, Naomi leaned in. "So, tellthe truth... does Stephen really have issues in that department?"

Tessa's blush deepened, and she immediately denied it, "Of course not!"

"| see," Naomi drawled, a teasing

smile curting at her lips as she gave Tessa a knowing look. "So, does that mean he's really that good? Con,

Tess, don't lie-did you two... you know?"

Sienna's eyes widened in shock. "Tess, have you—"

Tessa's embarrassment skyrocketed. "Ahhh! Naomi, you're so annoying! Why do you keep asking about this?"

Naomi flashed a mischievous grin and caught Sienna's eye.

Sienna met her gaze, and the two exchanged a sly, knowing smile.

Setting her phone aside, Naomi leaned in closer, tilting her head. "So? Did you two really cross that line? Come

on, spill the details-how was the first time?" Sienna remained silent, but the curiosity dancing in her eyes spoke

volumes. Meanwhile, Tessa looked like she wanted to crawl into a hole. "There's nothing to talk about "

"Wait, so you two actually went there? No way!" Naomi slapped her thigh, her eyes wide with shock. "That was

fast!"

Sienna chuckled softly. "I mean, it's not that surprising. Tess has been back for a while now."
