Elora remained silent for a moment before saying, “It's fine. I just forced myself." Tatum clearly didn't want to talk about it, and pressing him wouldn't help. If he wanted to say something, he would, without needing her to ask.

But the less he revealed, the more curious she became. She couldn't help but wonder who his fiancée was.
