Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 82

After Jaxon was caught red-handed in embezzlement and bribery, his fate was sealed. There was no escaping the long arm of the law now.

As the dust settled, Josefina returned to work at the company. Hattie was beside herself with worry, pleading earnestly, "Josie, sweetie, maybe it's best if you don't go back to work. You don't need to. Your dad and I can support you. Calix is coming home tomorrow; why not just stay safe at home? It's a crazy world out there."

The thought of enduring the pain of losing their daughter again was unbearable for them.

Garrett chimed in with his wife's sentiment, voicing his concern as well, "Darling, your mom's making a lot of sense. A young girl like yourself doesn't need to be all about career ambition. Stay home with us. We can have our days filled with good food, shopping sprees, and delightful vacations. Wouldn't that be lovely?"

Grandpa Robert, sitting on the sidelines, couldn't help but chuckle at his son and daughter-in-law's antics. "You two should really listen to what Josie thinks. As parents, it's not always right to steer your kids' thoughts."

Josefina knew that whether it was her granddad or her parents, they all loved her deeply. They didn't want to see her get hurt. They just wanted her to be happy.

With a gentle smile, Josefina reassured them, "Dad, Mom, I know you're worried about me, and I appreciate it. But I chose my job, and I want to see it through. It's important to me not to give up halfway."

Despite their reluctance, Garrett and Hattie couldn't resist Josefina's gentle persuasion. They wanted to give their daughter the world.

Josefina continued, "I'll be careful, and besides, once my exam scores are released, I'll be back to studying. It's just work for now. Don't worry."

Eventually, the couple conceded, letting Josefina continue with her job.

With a smile, Grandpa Robert added, "Josie's so talented. She even rooted out those two bastards. She's done a great service, cleaning up trouble for the company."

Garrett nodded in agreement, "Absolutely, Josie's the best there is!"

Hattie's smile broadened, "I'm so proud of our girl."
