His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 513

When Tessa and Stephen made it to the Yates residence, Sophia was already sitting on the couch and waiting for them in the living room.

The second she laid eyes on Tessa, Sophia couldn't stop the smile from blooming on her lips.

She immediately took Tessa's hand warmly and said happily, "Tessa, you should start calling me by my first name from now on."

Tessa smiled sweetly and obediently addressed her as such, saying, "Sophia."

Sophia grinned from ear to ear once she heard it.

Since it was a match born of love, both families were delighted to discuss their children's upcoming nuptials.

Sophia smiled, "I've looked at the dates and contacted a reliable fortune teller. She tells me that the day after tomorrow is their lucky day. If they get married that day, their nuptials will be blessed with fortune. Why don't we have them register their marriage then?"

Marianne turned to look at Samuel.

Meanwhile, Samuel focused on Tessa. "What do you think, Tessa? Do you want to hold a wedding before registering your marriage or vice versa?"

Tessa smiled as she said firmly, "I want to register our marriage first."

Samuel had no objections to her decisions, so he said warmly, "Alright. Then, we'll do it your way."

When she heard him, she turned to look at Stephen. At the same moment, Stephen had tilted his head to look at her. Their eyes met, and they exchanged a silent smile.

When the wedding discussion began in earnest, Sophia first inquired after Tessa's opinion. "Tessa, where would you like to hold the wedding?"

In truth, Tessa had already envisioned how their wedding would go when she had gotten engaged to Stephen last year.

She wanted to get married at the lakeside villa. It was a place she and her mother had visited often.

The villa was located at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by nature and with a stunning view.

Most importantly, it held memories of her and her mother. Tessa couldn't help but feel that her mother would be delighted if she got married there.

So, it was with her mother in her thoughts that Tessa finally said gently, "I want to have it at Lunar Lake."

The three women chattered away. They talked about the venue, wedding dress, hairstyle, itinerary, and guest list. Stephen and Samuel didn't even have a chance to get a word in.

Eventually, Samuel shot Stephen a look and said, "Stephen, come with me."

Stephen obediently followed Samuel to the study.

Samuel sat on the polished oak chair and began preparing tea with his porcelain tea set. "Have a seat," he said.

Stephen sat across from him.

Samuel didn't bother putting on airs. He loved tea and was skilled in preparing it. So, he served Stephen a cup and urged, "Please have a taste."

Stephen quietly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Samuel's eyes seemed far away as he murmured, "Do you remember this place? You asked for my daughter's hand in this very room four years ago."
