Magdalen, “I’ll be right back!”

After Kya left, the makeup artist approached with a grin. “Magdalen, it’s time to

slip into the wedding gown!”

At that moment, Magdalen’s phone buzzed. She glanced at the message and

Estelle’s eyes twinkled with joy, “I’ll go say hi to him!”

Sophia chimed in eagerly, “I’ll come too! I haven’t seen Grandpa Jarvis in ages!”

Emily suggested, “You guys go ahead. I’ll keep Magdalen company.”

Estelle nodded, “We’ll be back in a flash!”

“Send my love, and I’ll come to pay my respects with tea later!” Magdalen said

cheerfully.
