His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 347

Wynn understood everything Molly said. Though naturally reserved and rarely seen smiling, she responded in her usual flat tone.

"I'm not interested in women, men even less."

"So you're… asexual?" Molly blurted.

Tessa gave an awkward laugh, her mouth twitching slightly. "You really say anything that comes to mind. Aren't you afraid she might punch you?"

Molly pouted. "She said it herself."

"I wouldn't. I only hit people who pose a threat to my boss," Wynn replied calmly.

Jasmine tilted her head in thought. "Still, I'm just saying… Wynn really is more handsome than most guys."

Tessa smiled. "I agree."

Wynn's expression didn't change one bit.

Molly sighed dramatically. "Ever since I joined this law firm, my standards have skyrocketed. Tessa is gorgeous, Mr. Cooper and Mr. Jacobson are total dreamboats, and now there's Wynn, this insanely cool female bodyguard. It's no wonder I can't find a boyfriend. My tastes have officially been ruined."

Jasmine chuckled. "It's fine, it's fine. We're still young. There's no rush."

"You might not be in a rush. But something's definitely going on between you and Lucas. I've seen that guy waiting for you downstairs after work all the time," Molly said, throwing her a playful glance.

Jasmine's cheeks flushed pink as she lowered her gaze.

Tessa looked over in surprise. "Jasmine, are you dating Lucas? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?"

Jasmine kept her head down, blushing. "No, no, it's not like that. He's just been chasing me lately. I haven't said yes."

Tessa gave her a teasing smile. "From the look on your face, I'd say you like him too. Saying yes is only a matter of time."

Jasmine blushed deeper and gave a small nod.

"By the way, how's Anne doing lately? I've been swamped and haven't had time to visit her," Tessa asked.

"You're still young. You think you can handle everything just by working nonstop, but if your health breaks down, then what? What happens to your sister if you collapse? You want to see her drop out and work herself to the bone to pay your hospital bills? That would be completely backwards."

In the end, Lucas was persuaded after Tessa's lengthy lecture.

He accepted the card, bowed slightly, and said with quiet determination, "Ms. Yates, I will never forget this. I'll pay you back every cent."

Anne piped up too. "Tessa, I'll study hard. I'll get into a good university, find a good job, and earn money to repay you."

"Good. You both have to work hard and live well." Tessa smiled.

The siblings answered in unison, "Yes!"

The girls walked along the sidewalk, chatting and laughing. The evening breeze stirred their hair, and their voices rang out under the setting sun.

The streets bustled with people moving in every direction. The last golden light of day stretched across the city, casting a warm, gentle glow that turned their shadows long behind them.
