Alonzo said, “My sister has plenty of clothes, but she doesn’t wear much jewelry. How about I buy
her some jewelry? Brother Tatum, do you have enough money?”
Tatum, alreadyden with bags, smiled fondly and replied, “As long as it’s for your sister, no matter
how much she buys, I have enough money to pay for it.”
Overjoyed, Alonzo asked Tatum to take Angelo to a jewelry store, where they picked out some
beautiful pieces for his sister.
By the time Tatum brought the two boys back home, it was already dark. They had spent so much
time shopping that when they finally returned to the Ormond family mansion, it was dinner time, and
other chefs had prepared the meal in Tatum’s absence.
Elora wasn’t home for dinner, which gave the other chefs in the mansion a chance to showcase
their cooking skills. While they might not be as skilled as Tatum, their food still satisfied everyone at
the table.
The two boys had grown closer to Tatum during their shopping trip. They invited him to join them for
dinner and loved listening to his stories. Mrs. Ormond, noticing her sons’ enthusiasm, smiled and
said, “Tatum, why don’t you have dinner with us? Elora isn’t here, so she won’t know or say
anything.”
Tatum responded with a gentle smile, “Thank you, Madam, and thank you, young masters, but I’m
just a chef. I should join the other staff in the workers’ canteen for dinner.”
Unless personally invited by Elora, Tatum wasn’t willing to break the rules of the Ormond
household. He knew his ce as one of the chefs, and he wasn’t about to take liberties just
because the young masters were fond of him.
Mrs. Ormond, understanding his respect for the rules, didn’t press him further. The boys, reminded
of their strict elder sister, reluctantly epted Tatum’s decision and stopped insisting.
After dinner, Tatum returned to his dormitory. He sank into the sofa, leaning back, feeling the fatigue
of the long day.
He had spent the whole afternoon carrying all the bags by himself, acting as both a guardian and a
pack mule for the boys. Shopping wasn’t really his thing unless it involved exploring food markets.
He loved trying out different snacks, and if he discovered something tasty, he would figure out how
to make it even better.
But to earn his future brother-inw’s favor, Tatum had no choice but to endure the shopping trip
with the young gentlemen.
He was grateful that his two youngpanions hadn’t asked him to carry them on his back or hold
them while walking!
After a short rest, Tatum picked up his phone, opened WhatsApp, and made a video call to his
grandmother.
It took a moment for the olddy to answer.
“Grandma, are you still awake?”
Seeing his grandmother looking lively and not yet dressed for bed, Tatum realized his question was
unnecessary.
The olddy turned the phone around to show him where she was.
Tatumughed, “Grandma, it’s so cold and dark, and you’re still out dancing!”
The screen showed a group of women from the workers’munity—young, middle-aged, and
elderly—dancing together in therge open area in front of the flower fields.
Noticing the olddy on a call, the lead dancer turned down the volume on the speakers so they
wouldn’t disturb her.
“It’s not cold here in Wiltspoon; you’re the one in the chilly weather,” his grandmother said. “I saw
you were already back in your dormitory.”
“Grandma’s just out here for a bit of fun,” she continued. “We usually wrap up by 8:30 in the
evening, so we don’t disturb the younger folks trying to rest.” N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
