His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 79

"Do you know why my colleagues were so shocked to see you? Some of them had seen me getting out of your car one time and began spreading rumors that I have a sugar daddy. They even claimed that my sugar daddy is old, greasy, and ugly."

Stephen's gaze grew sharp and cold when he heard Tessa's words. "Someone was spreading rumors about you?"

She answered indifferently, "Yes, but I've already taken care of it. Don't worry."

"What? Someone dared to spread rumors that you were being kept by an old man? Why didn't you tell us that you were being bullied?" Quentin exclaimed in outrage.

Stephen cast him a frosty glance. "Why does she need to tell you about it?"

Quentin chuckled. "Hey, could you stop pinching me? I was just upset to hear that Tessa was bullied. After all, we're all friends here, aren't we?"
