Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 86

Josefina was baffled. How come Oliver was not happy? Who ticked him off?

Josefina was about to inquire with George when Oliver himself appeared. Striding over with a scrutinizing gaze, he eyed George, prompting a flustered response. "Mr. Oliver, I swear I didn't say a word!"

George's reaction was the very picture of 'the lady doth protest too much,' wasn't it?

Josefina couldn't help but let out a chuckle. Her radiant smile eased the tension in Oliver's face as he looked at her with an intense gaze. With just one look from Oliver, George promptly opened the car door, and Oliver settled into the seat.

"Take care, Ms. Josefina," George said quickly before hopping into the car.

Seated in the back, Oliver rolled down the window, revealing a face that could captivate any heart. His eyes burned with an uncommon softness as he finally said, "Let's head back."

The driver took off, and Josefina watched Oliver's car disappear into the distance.

...

Ruby sent a message to Xavier, full of tenderness and understanding. [Xavier, my dad says my designs are a hit. I want to buy you a watch, a little gift from me to you.]

Xavier had given up on Ruby, his sights set on Josefina. Though he knew little about her background, his father had implied that Josefina was no ordinary woman.

Reading Ruby's humbling words on his screen, Xavier figured there was no harm in meeting up with her, so, dressed to the nines and hair perfectly styled, Xavier stepped out to see Ruby.

Ruby waited at the restaurant's entrance, beaming as Xavier's car pulled up. "Here comes my boyfriend, the dashing heir of the Rowland family, Xavier."

Her three friends couldn't help but gasp at his arrival.

"Ruby, your boyfriend is so handsome!"

"He's a keeper for sticking with you even after discovering who you really are."
