His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 91

"Why? Why can you have his love, but not me?" A fierce and malicious gaze could be seen from Susan as she quickly rushed toward Tessa, the knife in her hand poised to strike.

They were only a few steps apart now, and Tessa had her back to Susan. She was completely unaware of Susan's movements.

Due to the short distance, Susan was swift. Stephen, who was holding Tessa in his arms, was

momentarily distracted. To protect her, he had to push Tessa away before countering Susan.

Alas, it was too late.

Even though he was skilled, he couldn't push Tessa away and counter Susan in such a brief moment.

As the knife came stabbing, Stephen's eyes widened in alarm.

All he could do was turn his body slightly while holding Tessa, taking the stab for her.

The moment the knife sunk into his flesh, he let out a muffled groan.

"No!" Susan's scream tore through the sky.

She staggered back a couple steps, unable to believe what happened.

"Why?" Susan roared hoarsely. "Stephen! Why do you care so much about her, even if it means your life?"

The pungent smell of blood was in the air, and Tessa belatedly realized what happened.
