Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 140

Josefina donned an emerald green long-sleeve blouse paired with sleek black slacks that accentuated her slender waist, striding with elegance.

The butler in the kitchen, spotting her approach, promptly directed the staff to serve breakfast.

"Have some breakfast first. Whatever questions you've got, I'm here to clear them up," Oliver offered.

They shared a knowing smile and began clearing the table.
