Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Garrett beamed with pride as he spoke, "Josie is our pride and joy."

Oliver's eyes were filled with adoration as he chimed in, "Indeed, Josie is a source of pride."

Hattie nudged Garrett with a knowing look, but no words were exchanged.

As Grandpa Robert walked out of the room, he overheard the conversation and said with a loving smile, "Josie's talents are exceptional. She truly is the pride of the Harrison family."

Josefina felt almost numb from all the praise showered upon her. It was a stark contrast to the days she spent with the Antonio family. The Harrisons' compliments made her grow more confident by the day. "You all flatter me too much. I still have a lot to learn from my elders, to catch up to you," Josefina humbly replied.

Oliver, unfazed, continued to heap on the praise, "Don't be modest, Josie. You truly deserve all the praise. You're the brightest and the best girl I've ever met - bar none."

Lena clenched her fists. Was she invisible?

They were so good at dishing out compliments. Should she flip through a thesaurus to find some fancy words for Josefina?

Lena remained quiet, and her silent presence clashed with the energy of the room.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Walter, after sitting for a while, checked the time and said, "It's getting late. I should head back. Josie, do drop by sometime to look at my paintings."

Josefina nodded, "Sure, I'd like that."

As Walter stood up, he turned to Oliver, "Are you not leaving, Oliver? Care to walk out together?"

Oliver hesitated. He didn't want to leave was that allowed?

With Walter's prompt and Garrett's pointed look, Oliver felt the unspoken nudge to leave the Harrison household.

Oliver's driver was waiting at the doorstep. Walter got into the car, and Oliver joined him to drop him off. The driver, anticipating an awkward silence between the two men, was surprised when Walter broke the ice. "Oliver, are you by any chance smitten with my precious apprentice?"

The driver quickly raised the privacy partition, not wanting to eavesdrop on the brewing gossip. He had every intention of staying out of drama.

In the backseat, Oliver wasn't caught off guard. His feelings had been obvious to anyone paying attention. With a small smile, he replied, "I love Josie."

Walter chuckled, "Chasing after my prized apprentice won't be easy, Oliver. You'll have to work hard."

Oliver inquired, "You don't object?"

"Why would 12 You don't look at

Josie with just friendly eyes, and I know you well enough to trust you're a man of integrity. Besides, it's not about whether I object. It's whether her parents object that truly matters."

Relief washed over Oliver. "Thank you, Mr. Walter, for your support. strive win her parents' approval

and the Harrison family's blessing for our union."

Walter's face lit up with a smile. He had high hopes for Oliver.

After the guests had left, Hattie suggested Josefina take a bath and relax for a while.

Josefina slipped out of her evening dress, took a soothing bath, and wrapped her hair in a towel turban, settling on the couch.

She took out her phone and instructed Luke to investigate the matter. There were still enemies within the Harrison family - why were they after grandma's life?

Did grandma know a secret, one that could expose the villains once she woke up? It was imperative for Josefina to awaken her grandmother soon!

In the dead of night, Lena tiptoed to Emily's room and gently pushed open the door. As she stepped inside, a gleaming knife narrowly missed her eye. Under the dim light, Josefina's chilling visage struck fear into Lena, nearly sending her soul fleeing from her body.

"What are you doing here?" Josefina demanded sharply.
