His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 459

Tessa and Stephen were having a moment when Marissa called Tessa over the phone.

Stephen shot a look at Tessa's phone and said coldly, "Decline it."

Tessa reminded him, saying, "We're here for her birthday party."

So, she answered the phone.

Marissa didn't sound unhappy as she said, "Tessa, you guys shouldn't be holed up in your room. You should come out and have some fun. I've also invited Sienna and Naomi to the party. I just saw them board the ship."

"Alright, I'll be there," Tessa replied.

Tessa ended the call and turned to Stephen, suggesting, "Let's join the others. Sienna and Naomi are here too."

Stephen's expression was cold due to the untimely interruption. So, he only grunted in response but said nothing else.

The lobby on the first floor was spacious, with a grand crystal chandelier sparkling overhead.

Plenty of people had gathered under it, drinking and chatting merrily.

Now that everyone on the guest list had arrived, the cruise ship began to set sail for the seas.

Stephen had only taken a few steps forward with Tessa when his phone rang.

He glanced at the caller ID before turning to Tessa and saying, "Tess, I have to take this call. You go ahead and have fun. I'll find you in a bit."

Tessa nodded. "Okay."

Just like that, Stephen picked up the phone and strode toward somewhere quieter while Tessa headed to the lobby.

When she got there, she immediately looked around in search of Marissa. Alas, she couldn't find the evening's host anywhere.

Marissa was the birthday girl, and therefore the protagonist of the day. That also meant she had to entertain the many guests present. Hence, Tessa had no idea where Marissa had gone off to.
