Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 60

"Josie, how could you forget your card again?" Oliver pulled out a sleek black card and handed it to Josefina with a gentle reminder, "Don't forget it next time, okay?"

The enigmatic Oliver never entertained the press, so naturally, his identity was a mystery to those around. With an imposing presence, he placed the card in Josefina's hand, his gaze filled with unmistakable fondness. In a room full of people, his eyes stayed fixed on Josefina.

Whispers started to ripple through the crowd.

"Holy smokes! That's a black card!"

"Those two were just mocking her for not being able to afford stuff, but with that card, she could buy anything."

"Looks like the joke's on that couple."

Meanwhile, Xavier's eyes were also locked on Oliver. Oliver's face was unfamiliar to Xavier, since he wasn't in a position to cross paths with someone like Oliver.

Oliver's icy stare was like a poisoned arrow aimed straight at Xavier, paralyzing him. Oliver's lips, thin yet commanding, uttered words chilling to the bone, "The incident at Gourmet Galaxy hasn't taught you a lesson, huh?"

Xavier was petrified. Was this man behind Gourmet Galaxy debacle?

That incident was Xavier's worst nightmare. He'd been reprimanded harshly by his father, who then put a tight leash on his bank account to prevent further disasters.

Ruby, overhearing the conversation, suddenly made a connection.

This man was called Oliver? Could this imposing man be the same one her family wanted her to marry?

As Ruby pondered this, Xavier grabbed her hand, intending to make a quick exit. But Oliver's cold voice stopped them, "Leaving so soon?" His bodyguards blocked their path, making escape impossible.

Xavier turned to face Oliver, defiance in his tone, "What do you want to do? This is a society governed by law." He didn't believe Oliver would dare harm him with so many witnesses.

Oliver's smile was predatory, "Aren't you going to apologize for hassling Josie?"
