His Unveiled Passion Chapter 58

Soon after, an elderly woman with a slightly plump figure and a warm, bearning smile stepped out. Ms. YatesIs that Tess

Tessaroze for a moment. Ma’am, do you know me 

The old woman approached her, her cloudy eyes brimming with emotion Tess, you’ve grown so tall. Time flies” 

Tessa’s mouth opened slightly, unsure of how to respond 

Stephen spoke at just the right moment learned my cooking skills here.” 

Tessa glanced at him, puzzled

Stephen explained. This is Helen Wilson. She used to be the Somerton family’s housekeeper, and Madam Somerton learned to cook from her.” 

Helen looked at Tessa, her joy everflowing into tears. It really is you, Tess. Your eyes look just like your mother’s. Tess, I even held you in my arms when you were little.” 

Hearing Helen mention her mother, Tessa’s eyes instantly glistened with tears. Yes, it’s me, Tess. Mrs Wilson, I came to visit you.” 

Come in and sit,Helen said, ushering them warmly 

She then turned to the man standing nearby. Bih, go to town and buy some groceries. Get the best ingredients. I’ll cook for Mr. Jacobson and Tess.” 

Got The man, called Billy, replied cheerfully before hopping on a motorcycle and heading off

Helm held Tessa’s hand and began reminiscing, sharing many stories about Tyla’s younger years

From these stories, Tessa learned that her mother had taken up cooking to win over Samuel 

Her mother, a delicate and refined heiress unaccustomed to kitchen work, had learned to cook for the man she loved 

Tessa felt a mix of emotions

As a child, she remembered her parents being deeply in love. Even after her mother passed away, her father had fallen into depression for quite some time 

If he loved her so deeply, why did he remarry just two years after her mother’s death? And why did it have to be her mother’s close friend

When she was little, her mother had taken her to meet Marianne a few times. Since Marianne didn’t live in Rivertown, their meetings were infrequent, but Tessa had liked her at the time. Marianne always bought her pretty dresses and delicious cakes

However, after Marianne married Samuel, whatever affection had existed between her and Tessa disappeared 

To be fair, Marianne had treated her well after the marriageeven better than when she was just her mother’s friend. She gave Tessa the best food, clothes, and care. Yet, Tessa couldn’t bring herself to like her anymore

With this in mind, Tessa asked softly, Mrs. Wilson, do you know Marianne?” 

Helen thought for a moment. Is she the girl who was very close to your mother?1 remember her. Before your mother got married, she often visited your home. They were college classmates and very close” 

Tessa’s expression darkened slightly. She’s my stepmother now.” 

Helen paused, as it recalling something 

After a moment, she said, I remember that before your mom passed away, Marianne visited her in the hospital several times. Once, when I went to see your mom, Loverheard her saying that after she was gone, she hoped that Marianne could take care of you

She didn’t want you to grow up without the love and care of a mother. Your dad was there too, and she told him that if he ever remarried, it should only be to Marianne. She didn’t trust anyone else” 

How could that be.Tessa’s face paled, and her chest felt tight with pain

Her father’s marriage to Marianne was her mother’s dying wish

All of this was because her mother didn’t want her to grow up without the love and care of a mother. She had wanted a stepmother for Tessa who could take her place and love ber daughter properly

Tears welled up in Tessa’s eyes, and her lashes quivered as she fell silent 

Quietly, Stephen took her hand in his. His rough thumb gently pressed into her palm, a small but comforting gesture

At lunchtime, Helen prepared a table full of dishes. The flavors were exactly as she remembered from her mother’s cooking 

Not wanting to dampen the atmosphere, Tessa temporarily pushed her sorrow aside. She put on a bright smile and praised Helen’s culinary skills

Helen beamed with pride. Tess, you probably don’t know this, but Mr. Jacobson has been here many times before. Every time, he would insist on joining me in the kitchen to 

learn how to cook” 

Hearing this, Tessa’s tearfilled eyes shifted to Stephen, her voice tinged with a slight nasal tone. Why did you come here to learn how to cook
