His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 195

"Michelle, I happen to need someone to cook meals for me. I'll send you the address. Come over whenever it's convenient for you. Just let me know before you head out," Tessa said.

Michelle chuckled cheerfully. "I'm free right now. Are you home? I can come over now."

"Sure, come on over."

After the call, Michelle turned to Stephen. "Mr. Jacobson, Ms. Yates agreed."

"Good. She tends to forget to eat when she gets busy. The place is close to her firm, so you'll need to deliver lunch to her office on weekdays. I'll cover your salary for that. But if she offers to pay you, don't refuse. And don't tell her I sent you."

Hearing that she could earn double pay, Michelle beamed with joy and quickly replied, "Of course, Mr. Jacobson. I'll make sure to take good care of Ms. Yates."

...

After New Year's Day, Stephen was swamped with work, barely finding time to catch his breath.

He didn't dare slow down. The moment he stopped, Tessa's face would creep into his mind, and he couldn't shake the thought of her.

He sat at his desk in the CEO's office and was focused on his computer.

Quentin lounged on the couch nearby and watched him with a complicated expression. "Stephen, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."

Without looking up, Stephen replied coldly, "Then don't."

Quentin opened his mouth, hesitated, then said, "It's about Tessa. Are you sure you don't want to hear it?"

Stephen's hands froze mid-typing. He raised his eyes. "What is it?"

"I knew it," Quentin thought. "If it involves Tessa, there's no way he wouldn't care."

But this was tricky—if he said it, Stephen would definitely get upset.

"Uh..." Quentin cleared his throat. "Naomi's been talking about setting Tessa up with a few college guys lately..."

As he spoke, he snuck a glance at Stephen, whose face had already darkened.

"College guys?" Stephen's jaw clenched as he asked in an icy tone.
