Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 809

Marina was pacing back and forth in the living room, her nerves frayed at the edges. She had orchestrated a risky plan involving Kate, and if anyone discovered her role in it, she'd be in deep trouble.

As she was contemplating her next move—especially since she had paid Kate a tidy sum to keep quiet—Darrick walked through the door.

Marina quickly plastered on a warm smile to hide her anxiety. "Darrick, you're back already! How was the birthday party for Autumn? You made it back faster than I thought."

Part of her hoped that Darrick had missed her enough to cut his visit short, preferring her company over Autumn's.

Just as she was getting lost in her hopeful thoughts, Darrick's sudden outburst caught her off guard. "Don't even bring it up! Autumn couldn't wait to get rid of me. Her sons, thinking they're all grown up, practically booted me out. And Caiden, that insolent kid, said he’d take care of everything, even hiring a bunch of male models for the party. Can you believe the nerve of them, trying to push me out?"

Marina was stunned by Caiden's audacity.

Caiden was the eldest, followed by Xavier and then Peter, and the family dynamics were tangled with secrets and rivalries.

Autumn had been in the dark about Marina for a while until the affair between Marina and Darrick came to light after Peter's birth, causing chaos.

Autumn’s family pressured her not to divorce, using every tactic to keep her tied to Darrick, who then distanced himself, focusing on raising her sons.

When Hunter found out about the scandal, he barred Marina and her child from entering their home, ordering Darrick to keep them away.

Yet, Marina defied the odds and returned with Xavier, refusing to be sidelined.

Reflecting on her past humiliations, Marina stirred the pot. "Darrick, now that Peter and Caiden are all grown up, do you think they’re plotting to seize control of the company and push us out?"

"Not a chance. My father would never allow it. I'm his only son. Tomorrow, I'll talk to him and make sure the shares are transferred to me. Then we'll see who gets kicked out."

Marina was thrilled. "Exactly, Darrick. As long as we hold the reins, no one can touch us."

They both agreed, hatching their next plan together.
