Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 66

Josefina nodded with a grin. "Sure thing, don’t worry about me. I’ve got this."

Hattie, though reassured, still had Tori and Jett stick around nearby, ready to jump in at a moment's notice if anyone tried to hassle Josefina. They were her safety net, quick on their feet to ensure Josefina’s protection.

"Aren't you worried I might run the company into the ground and lose money?" Josefina asked, her curiosity piqued. Running a company wasn't child's play. Their confidence in her was astounding.

"Even if we lose money, it's no biggie. The main thing is your happiness," Hattie replied, her words echoing the sentiment that Josefina's joy was truly priceless. A mother’s love knew no bounds, always striving to shower her daughter with the very best!

Feeling touched, Josefina vowed not to let the company suffer losses. She was determined to keep it profitable! If she could build Antonio Corporation, she could surely helm this new venture to success.

Josefina instructed the driver to pull over to the curb, careful to avoid any unwanted attention to her identity.

With a hint of reluctance, Hattie suggested, "Why don’t you have Ryan drop you off further ahead? Walking is such a drag."

"No need. A little walk is good for the body," Josefina said, flashing a smile as she opened the car door and stepped out. She turned back to look at Hattie with a beaming face.

Josefina's skin was flawless, as delicate as porcelain. The sunlight kissed her face, casting shadows that only enhanced her stunning beauty.

"I'll come pick you up after work," Hattie offered.

"Sounds good," Josefina replied, waving goodbye and even exchanging pleasantries with Ryan before leaving.

Ryan was over the moon and gushed to Hattie, "Ma'am, the young miss is a true chip off the old block – beautiful, courteous, and bold. Such a gem is rare these days."

Pride swelled on Hattie's face as she beamed, "Josie has indeed surpassed her old folks."

...

Riding the elevator to the women's fashion department on the sixth floor, Josefina was ready to take on the challenge. The company, a gift from Garrett, was still in its infancy, a chance for her to cut her teeth in the business world.
