Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 572

"Josie."

The familiar voice caught Josefina off guard.

"Oliver, what are you doing here?"

"Jack tipped me off," Oliver replied, always keeping tabs on anything involving Josefina.

Together, they walked inside, arriving at Lena's hospital room.

...

Lena lay in the bed, her face pale and gaunt, looking like she was on death's doorstep.

Jack said, "After lunch today, Lena threw up and even coughed up some blood."

Josefina approached, took a seat by the bed, and reached out to check Lena's pulse.

Suddenly, Lena's hand shot out from under the covers, clutching a shard of porcelain.

Josefina reacted quickly, but Oliver was faster, sweeping her up by the waist and pulling her back.

Josefina was unharmed, and Oliver swiftly kicked the porcelain shard away.

Jack jumped at the commotion.

"Damn it, how did she get a piece of broken porcelain?"

That's when Jack remembered the lunchtime incident. Lena had thrown a fit, demanding spaghetti bolognese. Eventually, they had someone bring her a bowl of it.

But as she ate, Lena had an episode and dropped the bowl, which shattered on the floor.

It was then she must have hidden a piece of the broken bowl, ready to use it against Josefina.

Lena slumped at the edge of the bed, looking utterly defeated.

She glared at Josefina with fury. "I didn't manage to kill you; you sure are one lucky lady."

Shaking her head, Lena, now agitated, coughed up more blood.

"Josefina, you won't fool me!"

"You know the truth deep down. After you were caught, no one came to rescue you."

Lena roared, "He would be walking into a trap if he tried to save me!"

"And what about your condition?" Josefina said with a laugh. "Don't you feel excruciating pain in your insides? Not just now, but the whole time you've been bedridden, it's been torture, hasn't it? Lena, you're only fooling yourself."

Josefina stood up. "Jack, there's no use trying to get information from her. Do what needs to be done."

There was no point in keeping Lena alive.

Such a person wasted the air they breathed and would waste the ground they'd be buried in.

As Josefina and Oliver walked out, Lena's eyes widened in horror, and she yelled at the top of her lungs, "Josefina, Josefina, come back here!"
