His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 305

Lester and Tessa were seated in the Lospian restaurant. Lester was elegantly slicing his steak apart while Tessa ordered a Pomanee-Delonti red wine for them to share. The waiter served the wine after the bottle was delivered to their table.

Lester smiled before saying, "Even if the court rules in our favor for the Helio case, the legal fee is only around 20,000 dollars. The wine you just ordered will cost you 18,000 dollars. Ms. Yates, I'm afraid you'll be suffering a loss in this case."

Tessa swirled the red wine in her glass. It was as if she had stars sparkling in her eyes when she smiled at Lester. "No, I'm not the type to accept a loss when dealing with business."

Lester waited for her to continue, his smile still stretched across his lips.

"After all, you'll be bringing in profits for Everbright that are ten times the price of this red wine within the year, Mr. Cooper," Tessa explained with a grin.

Lester chuckled under his breath. "I assumed that you were a fool who had too much money in your pockets, Ms. Yates. It appears that I was mistaken. Who knew you were so skilled when conducting business?"

"Of course. After all, I am my father's daughter."

When it came to the topic of business, no one could surpass the top entrepreneur in all of Rivertown, Samuel Yates.

Tessa was in a good mood throughout the meal. Lester gave her plenty of practical advice, which she made sure to note down in great detail. When they were finished with their meal, Tessa waved the waiter over to pay the bill.

The waiter smiled at her politely and said, "The bill has already been settled by this gentleman over here."

Tessa froze as she was handing over her card. She looked at Lester, who was seated across from her. "I thought I said that I would pay for tonight's meal."

"It's not my style to let a lady pay for my meal," Lester explained simply, his lips curling upward.

Tessa puffed out her cheeks in slight irritation. "A red wine that cost 18,000 dollars and another 2,000 dollars worth of dishes. Mr. Cooper, you haven't actually earned any money at Everbright yet, and you're already forking out 20,000 dollars. Aren't you the one who is running a loss here?"

"Just like you, I don't deal in businesses that will net me a loss," Lester said cheekily. "You're well-connected, Ms. Yates. I'm not afraid of having no cases to work on when I'm working with you. I'll be waiting for you to deliver a big case to me."

"Fine." Tessa slipped her card back into her bag. "I won't go easy on you, then."

Tessa was about to get up and leave when a woman suddenly approached them. Her eyes were wide as she stared at Lester in disbelief.
