Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 1042

"This isn't just a meal; it's Oliver's way of showing how much he cares for Josie. Look at this spread! Linden told me Oliver actually hired a nutritionist and a chef to make sure Josie's meals are exactly what she needs," Grandma Emily exclaimed with a knowing smile.

Grandpa Robert suddenly had a light bulb moment. Was Emily suggesting he hadn't been all that attentive back in their early days?

Feeling a tad guilty, Grandpa Robert reminisced about how hectic those times were, with him being away on business trips so often.

"Well, Oliver can't always be there for Josie, so it's only fair he puts in the effort on the home front," he mumbled, chuckling awkwardly.

Just then, Oliver strolled in.

Emily threw a glance at Grandpa Robert that almost made him squirm. "Ah, Oliver's back already?"

Grandpa Robert, flustered, scratched his head and grabbed a ladle to serve Emily some oatmeal.

Oliver had washed his hands and sanitized before settling down next to Josefina. "I showered, changed, and sanitized before coming in. Don't worry," he reassured her with a gentle smile.

Josefina rolled her eyes playfully, though she appreciated his thoroughness.

Under the table, Oliver reached over and softly held Josefina’s hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze.

Hattie watched the couple with warmth in her eyes. Seeing them so happy brought her joy as a mother.

"Oliver, we're staying for a few days with your grandparents. I hope we're not imposing," Hattie said politely.

"Mom, it's lovely having you here. The house feels too quiet sometimes. It'll be nice to have more family around, especially for Josie," Oliver replied, beaming as he ladled some oatmeal for Josefina. "Here, have this while it's hot."

After lunch, Linden showed Hattie and the others to their rooms so they could rest a bit.

Josefina yawned, and Hattie suggested she take a nap too.

So, Oliver and Josefina retreated to their bedroom.

Oliver wrapped his arms around Josefina as they lay on the bed together.
