Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 130

Now, facing Josefina, her demeanor was so unyielding, as if she were spitting fire, and it made Billy feel like she was a complete stranger.

Billy recalled his purpose for coming here and began, “Josie, since you work at this company, do you know the CEO?”

Josefina herself was the CEO of the company, a fact sadly unknown to Billy.

Josefina just hummed in response, and Billy, eyes sparkling with hope, pressed on, “So, you have a good relationship with them?”

Another hum from Josefina, and Billy got all wound up, “Josie, since you’re tight with them, could you talk to them? Ask them to sell those design blueprints to our company.”

Josefina was taken aback, staring at Billy in disbelief, “You want to buy design blueprints?”

Billy nodded earnestly, “Yeah, you might not know this, but Ava from your company came to ours with some designs, and it turns out they were knock-offs of your company’s work. That woman’s put me in a real bind. I’ve got the factory working overtime producing these clothes, and now, because of Ava’s little stunt, all these customers who pre-ordered are demanding refunds. If this keeps up, it’ll be the death of me.”

Josefina hadn’t expected Billy was looking to purchase design blueprints. A sly grin crept across Josefina’s face as she asked softly, “And what makes you so sure the company will agree to sell them to you?”

Billy’s reply was quick, “I’ve got to at least try, right? Josie, you were once my daughter after all. Help me out here, talk to your CEO and convince them to sell me the designs.”

“And how much are you willing to pay?” Josefina inquired.

Billy blurted out, “A million?”
