Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 131

The receptionist's words hit Billy like a ton of bricks. "Did you just call her President Josefina? She owns this place?"

Billy tried to steady his racing heart, keen to hear her response.

The receptionist strutted over to Josefina, her tone laced with disdain. "And who might you be, daring to speak ill of our Ms. Josefina? I'm calling security this instant to toss out a rude guy like you."

Billy still couldn't wrap his head around the bombshell revelation. Josefina, the owner of this fashion juggernaut?

A thought struck him, and he furrowed his brows, his eyes a mix of confusion and accusation. "Is Ava your mole? Josefina, I can't believe you'd stoop this low. To bite the hand that feeds you?"

Josefina let out a laugh tinged with contempt. "Ava stole our design blueprints, causing us a fortune in losses, and you have the audacity to blame us? We will settle the score with Ava for her plagiarism."

Although the receptionist was out of the loop, she stood by Josefina. "Ms. Josefina was nothing but generous to Ava, and she repays us by running off to your company with our hard work. Sir, are you in cahoots with Ava, plotting against our company?"

Billy was left speechless by the retort. He originally came to discuss a collaboration with the company's CEO, only to find out that the CEO was Josefina. It felt like his mind had been struck by lightning, and he was in agony. His thoughts ground to a halt.

Josefina smirked coldly. "Mr. Antonio, we'll be settling our accounts with your company. It's quite the coincidence, Ava leaving us and then showing up at your doorstep."

The receptionist had an epiphany. "So Ava had her next move planned before she left us. The traitor, she's the worst."

Billy left Josefina's company with his tail between his legs, a shell of his former self as he returned home.

Lauren and Ruby, too, were in a panic after catching wind of the news through the grapevine. The company was done for. What were they going to do?

Billy collapsed onto the couch, sighing deeply. "Do you know who's suing our company?"

Lauren asked, "Who? Don't tell me it's Josefina."

Ruby chimed in, "That can't be."
