Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Finally, Tatum broke the silence. "Miss, you go first. Say what's on your mind."

Elora hesitated, then said, "I... I don't feel like I have much to say. I think I understand why you did what you did."

Tatum replied, "Miss, I'm sorry for keeping it from you."

"There's no need to apologize. I didn't know much about your background. If it weren't for a friend telling me, I wouldn't even have known you're the sixth young master of the York family.

I couldn't uncover the truth, and I figured it was either you or your family covering your tracks."

Tatum nodded understandingly. "Of course. It's my fault, and I'm grateful you're not angry, yelling at me, or firing me. Miss, are you planning to stay there for a couple of days?" He had assumed Elora would head home after getting her answers.
