Chapter 4268 

“Miss, good night.” 

One by one, everyone wished Elora good night and left. 

Now that she was home safely and Tatum was with her, they felt reassured. 

As the last person disappeared into the night, Elora turned to face Tatum, and he looked right back at her. 

Their eyes met. 

For a long moment, neither of them spoke. 

Then, without hesitation, Tatum took her hand, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly. 

“Miss, I missed you so much,” he murmured. “These past two days have been miserable. I was worried—scared, even—that you’d be angry when you found out everything. I was afraid you wouldn’t want to see me anymore. That what happened to my older brother might happen to me, too. 

“I’ve hidden a lot from you. If you’re upset, I get it. You can be mad, yell at me, hit me if you want—just don’t ignore me.” He let out a heavy sigh. 

“Since I started cooking, I’ve never gone a day without making at least two dishes. It’s just part of me now. But these past two days… I couldn’t bring myself to cook at all. 

“When you’re not here, I have no motivation. A chef who’s not in the right headspace can’t make good food—it won’t look right, smell right, or taste right.” 

Elora leaned into him, letting the warmth of his embrace surround her. 

His arms felt safe. Solid. Comforting. 

So this is what it’s like to have someone to rely on. 

She listened as he rambled on, his voice low and familiar. 

Then she looked up at him and softly said, “Didn’t I tell you on the phone? I’m not angry, and 

I’m not going to fire you. I understand—whether you explain it or not.” 

Raising her hands, she cupped his face and traced her fingers gently along his features.
