Chapter 3470
The primary reason was her desire to shorten her business trip, which led her to work overtime each day, returning to the hotel late at night just for rest. Consequently, she often had to go to work as usual the next day.
With insufficient rest, her mental state deteriorated, requiring her to consume several cups of coffee daily to stay awake.
She rose from her bed, walked to the window, and gazed at the world outside.
The weather was chilly, and people hurried along the streets, with foot traffic being relatively sparse.
Tatum mentioned that Wiltspoon was always bustling with traffic, day and night.
It was only during the New Year that the city became quiet, as many migrant workers returned home to celebrate.
In just a few days, once the migrant workers returned, Wiltspoon would return to its lively and vibrant atmosphere.
Fortunately, Tatum ensured she had three meals a day during this busy period.
No matter how hectic her schedule was, she always managed to eat at mealtimes.
As a chef, it was Tatum’s responsibility to ensure her meals were timely.
Specifically, even if she was too busy to return to the hotel for meals, Tatum would bring her food, providing freshly baked, steaming hot dishes.
With three regular meals, her stomach pain seemed to lessen.
Tatum…
When Elora thought of Tatum, she realized he might become the chef she had worked with the longest.
She enjoyed the meals he prepared daily. Although sometimes it was the same dish, she never grew tired of it; in fact, she craved it more.
He was quite skilled; it was no wonder his restaurant was thriving.
Elora had sent people to Wiltspoon to investigate Tatum twice. The first time was solely to assess his character and gather basic information.
information.
The second focus of the investigation was on the operations of the restaurants and hotels under Tatum’s name, specifically examining whether the purchased ingredients were fresh and if hygiene and safety standards were upheld.

Elora was quite pleased with the findings.
Tatum was a businessman who would never compromise on quality for a quick profit. He refused to substitute inferior ingredients in any dish, even if it meant incurring higher costs.
As a result, his business thrived, and he enjoyed a loyal customer base.
That’s right—his prices were higher!
Due to the use of superior ingredients, his restaurant charged more than others.
He clearly displayed the prices, allowing customers to order dishes they deemed worth the cost, while giving them the option to refrain from ordering if they felt otherwise. He would not lower his prices simply because some considered them too high, as doing so would result in significant financial losses for him.
Even though Tatum is the sixth young master of the York family and doesn’t lack for money, he cannot afford to incur daily losses. If their private businesses consistently lose money without improvement over time, their eldest brother will intervene and offer advice on how to turn things around. If a business cannot be salvaged, he will advise them to cut their losses promptly.
They will not continue to incur losses indefinitely. With many brothers in the family, if each starts a business that continually loses money, even the York family’s ancestral wealth will not suffice to cover the deficits.
“Ring, ring, ring…”
Elora’s cell phone rang.
Her phone
She was standing in front of the window at the moment, so she walked back to the desk. When she noticed the caller ID was Tinsley, she picked up the phone, sat down in the black swivel chair, and answered the call.
“What’s up?” Elora asked.
“Is it a problem for me to call you? You’ve been away on business for a few days and haven’t reached out. We miss you too,” Tinsley replied, complaining with a smile about Elora not calling home.
