His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 104

Stephen's fingers began tapping rhythmically on the edge of his desk. "Have you talked to the Gomez family?"

Samson replied, "We did, and their response is the same as before. Mr. Gomez claims to have not known that Susan was one of your admirers and that she was merely his companion for that night."

…

On Friday morning at Shelton Law Firm, Vivian, the head of the litigation department, sent a message in the department's group chat.

The message read, "There will be a department dinner tonight, and all employees in the litigation department are welcome to join. I'll share the time and location in the group later."

Shortly after the message was sent, Jasmine messaged Tessa privately. "Ms. Yates, will you be going to tonight's dinner?"

Jasmine had always been close to Tessa, and ever since Tessa had saved her from a criminal, she had been deeply grateful and admired her immensely.

She had practically become Tessa's little fangirl.

Later, Vivian assigned Jasmine to work as Tessa's assistant, and the two became friends.

Tessa replied, "Yeah, I'll go. I don't have any plans after work anyway."

William had been officially arrested due to the criminal charges against him.

Tessa had also sued Yasmin for defamation. After the court had carried out the lawsuit, Yasmin was too ashamed to stay at the law firm and resigned.

Hence, the atmosphere within the firm was much better, and Tessa genuinely liked her colleagues. So, naturally, she decided to join the dinner.

Jasmine quickly replied, "Alright! I'll go since you're going!"

Their dinner was held at a restaurant that served Lospia cuisine. After the meal, someone suggested moving to a bar for some drinks.

Thinking about how so many things had happened recently and how exhausted she was to be on edge every day, she figured she could use a break and relax a little. So, she agreed to head to the bar.
