So why did she still wake up with a headache?

When Tatum reached the front door, he stopped, turned back, and said to Elora, "Miss, the only woman I care about is my future wife. Every other young woman is just a stranger to me.

I'll be polite if necessary, but if not, I won't pay them any attention. Even if she's my boss, I won't cross the line. And if I ever do, there must be a reason. Get some rest, Miss. You've had a little too much to drink-if you don't sleep well, you'll wake up with a headache. I'll make you some honey water in the morning." With that, Tatum walked away.

Elora stood there, staring at the door long after he disappeared.

What did he mean by that?

He only cares about his future wife?

He won't cross the line for any woman other than his fiancée-not even his boss.

What exactly does "crossing the line" mean to him? Caring?

So, if his boss is a young woman but not his fiancée, he'll only do his job—nothing more. No concern, no extra effort beyond his duties.
