Love's Perfect Match

Helena's funeral was eventually done in a simple way that was in line with her image during her lifetime.

On the day of the funeral, Michael walked out of the yard to watch her burial in person. He couldn't hold back eventually and passed out crying in front of the grave.

Elspeth came secretly, but she still insisted on showing up from the beginning to the end. Anyway, she would return to Damoria in a few days. It would take a few days for the news from Blaydal to reach Damoria, so she had no intention of hiding her presence.

Once Helena's funeral was over, Elspeth bid farewell to Michael and left for Damoria with Frank.

The day she returned happened to be the eve of Callum and Jasmine's wedding.

At the thought of marrying Callum the next day, Jasmine was so thrilled that she had a feeling she wasn't going to get a wink of sleep.

Before going to bed, she even gave her fiancé a call.

"Hello."

Hearing the familiar voice sounding from the other end, Jasmine softened her voice. "Callum, I'm a little nervous tonight. I can't sleep."

"Why not? It's our wedding tomorrow. Rest well or you'll be easily exhausted tomorrow."

Jasmine felt much more at ease after hearing Callum's patient reassurance. "Are you really not going to regret marrying me?"

She had always wanted to ask that question, but she was afraid that it would agitate Callum, so she kept it in her heart for a long time.

"Haven't I given you an answer a long time ago?"

Callum's voice suddenly softened.

Although he didn't give her a direct answer, Jasmine understood what he meant, so she nodded with a smile. "Okay. I'll go to bed first, and you should too. Don't stay up working too late."

Callum hummed before hanging up the phone.

At this moment, he was sitting in front of his desk in the room. A huge gift box was placed on the desk where his suit was kept.
