His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 122

"What did you just say?" Tessa asked.

She stared at Zachary with wide eyes that were filled with disbelief. Even her voice had risen higher.

Her reaction pleased Zachary greatly because it meant he had correctly guessed it. Tessa had no idea that Susan had been kidnapped as the Jacobsons had suppressed the news.

The revelation brought much joy to Zachary, who straightened his posture. At a frame of over five feet and nine inches, his height allowed him to tower over Tessa, adding to the imposing air he gave off.

Zachary's eyes were lightly deprecating as he said, "Did you really think that Stephen wouldn't develop feelings for a woman who pursued him for ten years? Heh. You're as naive as ever, Tessy. You don't understand the mind of a man at all."

Tessa's gaze was lowered to the ground. She didn't speak, making it hard to tell what was on her mind.

Zachary continued speaking, "Susan was taken away by the police on the day of your engagement. Later on, she told them that she was pregnant. She was kidnapped while she was on the way to the hospital for her check-up.
