His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 210

With a smile, Tessa answered, "I'm treating you to dinner. We're friends, so there's no need to be so polite with me."

After experiencing the whole ordeal with the Grangers, Tessa and Jasmine had grown closer. They were no longer just colleagues but friends as well.

Jasmine was still slightly abashed as she said, "Isn't that a bit too much?"

"You're feeling down, and as your friend, I'm treating you to a meal to cheer you up. What's wrong with that?"

Jasmine pursed her lips, accepting Tessa's kindness. "Then, I should thank you, Ms. Yates."

"We're off work now, so you don't need to call me Ms. Yates. We sound like strangers. Just call me Tessa."

Jasmine smiled. "Alright, Tessa."

Tessa found a spot by the window, commenting, "This spot has a great view, and we'll be able to see the city lights."

"You're right." Jasmine seemed slightly reserved as she sat opposite Tessa.

"You can order whatever you like," Tessa encouraged as she handed Jasmine the

menu.

Jasmine quickly waved her hands, resisting. "Tessa, you can just order whatever you like. I'm fine with anything."

Understanding Jasmine's reservedness, Tessa nodded and ordered a few signature dishes and vegetables.
