Married At First Sight Chapter 3797
Chapter 3797 Elora smiled and said, "Mom, if you like, I can give you one of the jewelry sets. Alonzo bought me gold jewelry, which isn't that expensive. Each set costs only tens of thousands of dollars, not nearly as valuable as the pieces you own." Mrs. Ormond's jewelry was much more valuable, with some pieces worth over a million, and others even exceeding a hundred million.
Taking the red brocade box from Elora, Mrs. Ormond opened it, examined the jewelry, and smiled. "Alonzo probably thought the gold looked pretty, so he picked this out for you. He's still young and doesn't fully understand its value."
"I cherish the jewelry Alonzo gave me," Elora said with a fond smile. She truly appreciated his gift.
"What Alonzo gave you represents his love and thoughtfulness. I won't take that away from you," Mrs. Ormond said warmly. "Seeing you and your brother share such a close bond is the best gift a mother could ask for." Her words weren't spoken out of envy but out of joy as a mother.
She was genuinely happy to see her children getting along so well.
"Alonzo told me they used up all their money shopping with Tatum and asked me to help repay him," Elora explained. "I'll ask Uncle Joly to transfer the money to Tatum tomorrow. Those two little ones spent months of Tatum's salary in just one afternoon." Hearing this, Mrs. Ormond felt a little concerned about Tatum's finances.
"Mom, Tatum didn't join our household as a chef for the money," Elora reassured her. "He came here mainly to hone his cooking skills. He's not short of money-Tatum owns a hotel, a restaurant, and a company in Wiltspoon."
Mrs. Ormond nodded knowingly.
She was aware that Elora always did background checks on their
household staff to ensure they were trustworthy, had good character, and no shady dealings. The grmond family valued honesty, loyalty, and integrity in their employees.
"Tatum is a good man. Everyone in the family likes him," Mrs. Ormond said, smiling "I really admire his parents for raising such a fine person." She couldn't help but compare Tatum to her own son, Alonzo, who was just seven years old. It would be years before Alonzo grew up, and she hoped he would become as accomplished as Tatum someday.
Although Tatum was a chef with a passion for cooking, he was also a skilled businessman with a thriving career. Based on Elora's respect for him, Mrs. Ormond suspected that Tatum's ventures were far more successful than she initially thought.
Elora admired talented individuals. If
Tatum's businesses were just a
small restaurant or a modest hotel, that might be impressive to some but it wouldn't have been enough for someone of Elora's stature. Her treatment of Tatum suggested that his enterprises were substantial. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Mrs. Ormond guessed that Tatum's business ventures in Wiltspoon were significant, likely worth several hundred million dollars. And the fact that he was the same age as Elora made his achievements all the more remarkable. "Mom, there's no need to envy his parents. Our Alonzo will be just as successful one day," Elora said confidently, not wanting her mother to compare her brother to anyone else.
Mrs. Ormond smiled gently. "Alonzo is still very young. We'll see how he grows. If he can help you run the family business someday, I'll be more than satisfied. All I hope for is that he stays healthy. Good health is the most important thing." She knew that nothing was more valuable than a healthy, happy life.
"Now, off you go to your room and rest," Mrs. Ormond said, urging Elora. "It's not often you come home early, so take the chance to relax. Don't stay up working on your phone or computer."
Elora nodded, appreciating her mother's gentle reminder to take care of herself.
