His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 437

Tessa woke up bright and early the next day.

After she had her breakfast at the hotel, she planned to make a trip to the famous lake in the countryside.

Meanwhile, Stephen was trying to reason with Wynn at the parking lot.

He looked at the expressionless Wynn and said, "You can go now. Nothing will happen to Tessa with me around."

Wynn remained utterly indifferent to his words, replying blandly, "I only listen to Ms. Yates."

Stephen fell silent upon hearing her answer. He had finally gotten the chance to enjoy some alone time with Tessa. So, why was Wynn being such a pest of a third wheel?

Sadly, that was just how Wynn was. Although she was very capable and loyal, she was also as stubborn as a mule and dense to boot.

Tessa turned her attention to Wynn and mused, "Wynn's been following me around rain or shine. Her job as my protection detail is actually rather boring… Plus, she doesn't even have days off. Since we're technically on vacation, it's also a chance for Wynn to let loose."

Besides, it was better to have another person around if they were going on a trip, just in case.

On the other hand, it was easy to guess what was on Stephen's mind. He wanted to spend some time alone with her.

That was easy enough to arrange.

She just had to tell Wynn to keep her distance once they were at their destination.

So, Tessa said, "Wynn, you'll be coming with us."

"Yes, Ms. Yates," Wynn replied respectfully.

They didn't have to worry about transportation.

Stephen handled it all with just a call. Sure enough, someone arrived to pick them up from the hotel.

The SUV left the city and arrived at the lake about 20 minutes later.

Technically, the lake should be absolutely swarmed by photo-taking tourists at this time of day.

Perhaps someone high up the chain had noticed Stephen's arrival. Thus, they were the only ones at the lake. As a result, the usually noisy atmosphere by the lake was oddly peaceful.

The vehicle pulled to a stop, and the driver remained seated in it.

Tessa, Stephen, and Wynn got out of the car.

The scenery before them was utterly breathtaking and unreal.

Tessa was in awe of the sight that greeted her eyes.

The sky was a brilliant blue. It was so clear that there wasn't a hint of blemish within the never-ending shades of blue. Fluffy clouds drifted by lazily, dotting the vast expanse of the sky.

The lake reflected the sky like a mirror, shimmering under the bright sun. It was as if she had stumbled upon a mysterious place where diamonds could be found hidden within its clear depths. It was an ethereal and dreamlike view.

The sapphire-blue lake was nestled in the middle of the lush green prairie like a hidden gem. The picturesque scenery was both tranquil and mysterious, exuding a sense of peace that seemed to grow as time passed.

Wildflowers bloomed alongside the lake, bursting in vibrant colors of yellow, purple, and white. Countless blossoms seemed to be competing in a beauty pageant, enchanting the dancing butterflies with their alluring fragrance.

The bees buzzed in their haste to collect their fill of nectar, bringing about a certain vitality to their surroundings.

Stephen had come prepared. He whisked out his camera and promptly captured the seemingly divine landscape before them, leaving it frozen in time.

Once he was done taking a few shots of the view, he lifted his head from the camera and urged, "Tess, stand over there. Let me take a picture of you."

On this fine day, Tessa was wearing a light blue and white checkered dress. A large white bow was on her chest, and life-like white daisies were embroidered on her dress.

She had only brought her suit for the trip and didn't bother packing any casual wear.

So, she had gotten this dress yesterday when Stephen had taken her to the mall.

The dress' youthful yet vibrant colors were a perfect complement to the gorgeous lakeside view.

As Tessa stood by the lake, she looked like a fairy who had accidentally stumbled into the human world.

A gentle breeze blew past, playfully lifting the hem of her dress, making it seem like fluttering wings.

Tessa struck a few poses, and Stephen patiently took all the pictures she wanted.

Her fair skin and delicate features were so beautiful that it was enough to take one's breath away, and she wasn't even wearing makeup.
