His Unveiled Passion

The skincare products and cosmetics on the table were all from brands Tessa liked to use.

Yet, Stephen said that these were hastily bought, so she would have to make do with them for now.

Although he had made it sound like those things would be replaced with better ones, she had also found a wardrobe filled with branded goods. They were from this season and were worth at least several hundred thousand dollars.

Hell, even the silk nightgown she was wearing right now was worth at least 500 thousand dollars.

Stephen curled his lips into a smile. It seemed that he was in a good mood as he drawled, "Guess."

"Leaving me in suspense, are you?" Tessa took a couple of sips from her milk, inadvertently staining her lips white. It made her look utterly irresistible. "Well, I'm not guessing."

Suddenly, Stephen lowered his head and kissed her, licking the milk off her lips.
