Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 24

Instinctively, Josefina was about to clap back . Her arm already reached out, grabbing Oliver’s arm, but suddenly, she sniffed that familiar scent. “Oliver?”

She looked up. The morning sunlight danced on the man’s face, giving him a look that was both fresh and devilishly charming.

Lying on the ground, Luke was nursing his butt, cursing under his breath, “The nerve of that guy, dropping me on my ass! I’m gonna kick his butt!”

Percy, standing next to Josefina, saw she didn’t hit back and was at a loss for words for a sec.

She had a lot of tricks up her sleeve, and he didn’t dare to run his mouth.

Luke, getting back on his feet, stared at Josefina with a face full of pity, about to say “Boss, avenge me,” before Josefina cut him off.

“Oliver, what are you doing?”

“Protecting you.” The man’s voice was magnetic, and his sharp gaze swept over everyone present.

Luke and Percy couldn’t believe their eyes, staring at Oliver. He stood tall and imposing, with a ruthless streak and an aura that screamed “don’t mess with me.”

Luke sneaked a peek at Oliver, whose powerful presence made his own confidence shrink a few sizes.

Josefina was taken aback but quickly snapped back to reality. “They’re my friends, Oliver. You’ve got it wrong. They’re not bad guys.”

Oliver, realizing the awkwardness of the situation,apologized.

Luke was miffed. “What’s with you, man? Couldn’t you have asked first? What if you scrambled my brains?”

Percy chimed in, “Zip it.”

Luke, with a mournful look, turned to Josefina. “Josie, he’s picking on me.”
