His Unveiled Passion

Lester let Tessa go and took a polite step back. He exuded grace and poise as he said politely, "There's no need for you to be so courteous."

Just then, a woman said snidely, "My, my. If it isn't the knockoff lady? I'm surprised. I can't believe a fraud like you would actually be on this cruise ship. I've really underestimated you, haven't I?"

Tessa spun on her heels and immediately saw a familiar yet bitter-looking face.

Cassidy had her arms crossed before her chest as she glanced at Lester before sneering at Tessa disdainfully. Then, she mocked, "And here I was wondering just how you managed to board this cruise ship. Turns out you managed to get your claws into his pants."

Tessa's face turned thunderous as she intoned coldly, "It seems that your time in detention didn't teach you anything."

Cassidy's anger flared the second her stint in the detention center was brought up. She was still resentful over how she'd been humiliated back at the mall.

If it weren't for Bruno's connections, they would still be forced to sit in that dingy holding cell.

Cassidy glared at Tessa and growled, "How dare you bring that up? I've been dying to get back at you, and you've just served yourself up on a silver platter."

Lester's icy gaze landed on Cassidy. "Miss, you're a grown woman. So, you are responsible for whatever you say. If you continue slandering my friend, I will pursue this legally."

"Oh, I'm terrified. No, really. I'm shaking in my boots." Cassidy rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "Go ahead and sue me if you dare. Go on, do it!"
