Mr. Labbe, frustrated by Carrie’s lack of intelligence, couldn't help but scold her over the phone once again.

While Carrie endured Mr. Labbe’s harsh words, Tatum was busy bringing afternoon tea to Elora.

She had a social event to attend that evening, so she wouldn't be home for dinner.

Knowing how picky Elora was—she typically only drank alcohol at these events—Tatum worried she'd get drunk if she drank on an empty stomach.

Even though Elora had a high alcohol tolerance and no one would dare pressure her to drink, Tatum knew that even a little alcohol on an empty stomach could cause discomfort.

To prevent that, he brought her a selection of freshly baked snacks, still warm from the oven.

Alonzo and Angelo accompanied Tatum on this errand.

After Tatum parked the car, he stepped out carrying the box of snacks.

Alonzo and Angelo, seated in the back, unbuckled their seat belts, opened the doors, and got out of the car.

Angelo didn't close his door properly on the first try, so Tatum reminded him to shut it again.
