Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 172

Could Josefina even ride a horse? It seemed like a long shot!

As the horse started to gallop, Lena began to feel that there was something off about the steed beneath her. While riding, Lena realized that the horse seemed to be losing its mind. She gripped the reins, trying to bring the horse to a halt, but it refused to obey, charging wildly instead. In a panic, Lena screamed, "Help me!"

However, she had ridden too far, and her cries went unheard.

With a sly smile, Josefina brought her horse to a gentle stop, clearly in command. Nola rode up beside Josefina, her tone haughty as she said, "If it weren't for Lena's kind heart, how could you possibly be here riding with us?"

Josefina feigned surprise as she retorted, "And who might you be? Richer than the Harrisons?"

Nola's face soured. Her family's wealth and influence paled in comparison to the Harrisons. Lena had mentioned something about an arranged marriage with her family and Oliver. With Lena as the only daughter in the Harrison household, who else would he marry? This was precisely why Nola and Alma always fawned over Lena.

Josefina let out a nonchalant 'oh,' eyeing Nola coldly before delivering her news, "So you haven't heard? Lena is not the Harrison's true daughter. You're probably even less aware that the real Harrison heiress has returned, right?"

As Nola stared in shock, Josefina dropped the bombshell, "And who is that true heiress? It's me. Surprise?" With that, she rode off, leaving Nola frozen like a living statue.

Meanwhile, Lena was still frantically calling, "Josefina! Josefina, help!" She shouted Josefina's name because she knew Oliver was there. She had messaged Oliver the night before, telling him she'd be at the stables with Josefina. Given Oliver's fondness for Josefina, he would surely come.

And indeed, Oliver arrived, George in tow. He heard Lena's shouts and spurred his horse in her direction.
