Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

When asked about his fiancée, Tatum refused to tell Elora. If it had been someone else, he wouldn't have hesitated. His explanation made sense, but Elora felt he was hiding something.

If the fiancée was her, his secrecy would be understandable.

Old Lady York met Elora's gaze.

She was exactly the kind of granddaughter-in-law she had hoped for.

She appreciated Elora's directness.

Instead of answering immediately, she asked, "Why do you think Tatum's fiancée is you?" Elora laid out her reasoning, one point at a time.

Finally, she said, "Old Lady York, you met me a long time ago, yet I have no memory of it. I have every reason to believe that you were secretly observing me, evaluating my character on Tatum's behalf."
