Married At First Sight Chapter 4029
Tatum said, “My eldest brother is much more relaxed now. Actually, the person who truly helped him wasn't us—it was Brother Josh. They've been close friends for years. After graduating, my eldest brother brought Josh into the York Corporation, and he's been his righthand man ever since. Josh is incredibly capable."
He continued, "My eldest brother is extremely efficient at work. In the past, people in the company struggled to keep up with his pace, so he had to slow down. But things changed after he married Serenity and started a family. Now, he spends more time at home and enjoys being with my sister-in- law. He's not as intense about work as he used to be.
"His social events have also decreased. In the old days, he wouldn't get home until late at night. Now, he makes sure he's home by ten o'clock, no matter what. Not even the king himself could stop him.
"Even the business partners of York Corporation know this. When they want to discuss deals with my eldest brother, they make sure to handle it during the day. No one dares to drag it into the evening."
Elora smiled warmly, her eyes glinting with a hint of envy. "I didn't realize you were the sixth young master of the York family until recently. Once I found out, I started paying attention to your family. Your brothers are famous in Wiltspoon for how devoted they are to their wives."
Tatum gave her a meaningful look and said, “In our family, doting on our wives is a tradition."
Elora chuckled. “Any woman who marries into your family is incredibly lucky. Tatum, do you have someone special in your life?" she asked casually. Tatum shook his head. "Not yet. I'm not in a rush. I'm still young, and my eldest brother didn't get married until he was thirty."
Elora raised an eyebrow. "You must have plenty of admirers, though."
Tatum smiled. "I do, but I don't give them a chance. Most give up after a while. I keep a pretty low profile in Wiltspoon, so not many people know I'm the sixth young master of the York family."
He paused and added, "There aren't many people with the surname York in Wiltspoon, but that doesn't mean there aren't any. Still, when people hear the name York, they automatically think of our family and the York Corporation. But with so many members in the family, unless I say I'm the sixth young master, they won't assume it's me.
"I prefer staying under the radar. I enjoy cooking, so I spend most of my time in the kitchen. I don't attend many banquets or parties, and I rarely interact with people outside of my family. As a result, not many have seen me in person, even if they've heard of me."
Elora listened intently, her perception of the York family shifting. She had always known they were the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon, but now she understood their family values better. Loyalty and devotion to their wives seemed to be ingrained in the York men.
If there was one thing people could criticize about the York family, it was their lack of daughters. For generations, no daughters had been born into the family. It was said that the York household resembled a Buddhist temple, full of sons but devoid of daughters.
The York family's matriarch, the old lady, often expressed her deepest wish-to hold a greatgranddaughter. Tatum's sister-in-law, Serenity, was currently pregnant, and her due date was approaching. People speculated that her first child would likely be a son, continuing the family tradition. Elora shifted the conversation, testing the waters. "Do you only plan to marry someone from Wiltspoon?"
Tatum shook his head. "Not at all. My eldest and second sisters-in-law are from Wiltspoon, but my third and fourth sisters-in-law aren't. I'm not sure about my fifth sister-in-law, but I know she's not from here either.
"My grandmother always says it doesn't matter where the girl comes from, as long as she has good character and her family is okay with her marrying into our family. They don't insist we marry women from Wiltspoon.
"If the girl minds moving far away, we're allowed to make adjustments-except for my eldest brother, who can't leave since he's the head of the family. The elders don't place restrictions on us. They just want us to be happy."
