Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 53

As Oliver listened to Jett's briefing, a steely glint sharpened in his eyes, a dangerous aura simmering beneath the surface.

He walked towards the inside, and Jett watched him with anticipation in his eyes. Out of nowhere, Tori sauntered up, "What's the big plan, huh?"

"Oh, just giving the guy a chance to shine. I've got a hunch he's sweet on our Miss Josefina, thinking of courting her. While I'd love for our lady to remain the unattainable belle, a little romance wouldn't hurt, would it?"

Tori chuckled, "And from the way you tell it, should Miss be sending her thanks your way?"

Jett let out a sly laugh, "No need for that. Her happiness is all that matters."

Now, it was all up to Oliver.

Xavier, with Lauren and Ruby in tow, made his grand entrance into the birthday bash at Gourmet Galaxy. True to its name, the venue was nothing short of opulent and imposing.

As Xavier's friends mingled and laughed over their drinks, the manager made an appearance. He approached Xavier, "Mr. Xavier?"

Xavier assumed an air of lofty arrogance, "What's the issue?"

Without a trace of subservience, the manager stated, "I apologize, Mr. Xavier, but I must ask your party to vacate the premises. We can no longer host your birthday celebration."

Xavier was taken aback. His friends were all there, and now they were being told to leave? Was the manager out of his mind?

Fury ignited within Xavier, "What do you mean? I've paid for this. You have the gall to kick me out? Who do you think you are? Do you know who I am?"
