Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 119

Percy and Luke were crouched outside the window, with their forearms taking the brunt of their weight. Once the coast was clear, they clambered back inside.

Luke let out a frustrated grunt, “Damn it, is Lena actually worried about Josefina, or is she just trying to mess with her?”

Percy urged him, “Let’s get a move on. We don’t want to tarnish Josie’s good name.”

With a wry smile, Luke said, “Boss, congrats on topping the charts. I’ve got a little something for you. It’s on the dresser over there, the pink box — that’s from me.”

Percy chimed in, “Josie, I didn’t come empty-handed either. That blue box, that’s my gift to you.”

“You’re both too kind,” she replied.

Percy said, “You aced it, Josie. A celebration is definitely in order.”

Luke chimed in with a grin, “Percy’s right, boss. You did us proud with those grades!”

Josie couldn’t help but laugh at their antics and hurried them out the window they had entered.

Lena was fuming in her room. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. A gust of warm air reminded her that she had forgotten to close the window.

As she walked over to shut it, cross-eyed Luke passed by, startling Lena into a fit of shouts.

Just then, Regina came in with a tray of fruit and heard Lena’s screams. “Miss Lena, is everything alright?” she asked with concern.

Lena, clutching her face and hearing the familiar voice, slowly recovered. She grabbed Regina’s arm, pointing at the window with terror-stricken eyes. “Regina, there’s a ghost, a ghost! I tell you!”

Regina looked out the window with skepticism. “Miss Lena, let me check.”
