Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 327

The words that spilled from Josefina's lips sent a shockwave through the entire room. Erica's eyes were wide with disbelief as she stared at Josefina, her gaze filled with skepticism.

Lauren's voice dripped with sarcasm as she laughed at Josefina, "You're the designer Anya? Why don't you take a good look in the mirror, sweetheart? There's not a single thing about you that even comes close to Anya. That's the funniest joke I've heard all year."

Ruby, too, wore a mocking smile, her voice laced with disdain, "Josefina, do you really think we're going to buy this act of yours? Is there anyone here who can vouch that you're Anya? Aren't you scared of being sued for impersonation?"

Billy chimed in, "Josefina, this isn't the place for your jokes. Your little no-name company suddenly hits the big time, sure must have had a little help from a 'mysterious benefactor,' huh? But let me tell you, this is not the kind of competition you can bluff your way through."

Alex was fuming, stepping forward to declare, "All this talk about us, where's your proof? Without evidence, stop spewing nonsense and wasting everyone's time with your baseless accusations."

He continued, "You accuse me of buying designs? Whose designs did I buy? And when you made such claims at the competition itself, aren't you implying I'm in cahoots with the organizers? Do you think everyone here is blind to just hand me a backdoor deal? Ruby, do you ever engage your brain before you speak?"

Josefina added, "Ruby, if you can't provide evidence, you owe us an apology."

But Ruby had no evidence. The design sketches Holly had given her went unused by Alex. She just shot from the hip, not wanting to let Josefina off easy.

"Why did your unknown designs suddenly take first place?" Ruby challenged.

Josefina's smile widened, "Good question."
