Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 844

At the beauty salon, things were going downhill fast, and with the internet spreading the drama like wildfire, it was only a matter of time before the place took a big hit.

Josefina wasn't letting up. "You might be keeping quiet now, but when the cops get here, you'll end up singing like a canary."

The woman, clearly shaken, tried to make a run for it, pushing against Josefina. But Josefina stood firm, not budging an inch.

With a quick kick, Josefina scolded her, "You had the guts to cause trouble, but not the courage to deal with the fallout?"

Hattie was fuming, "Come on, spill it. Who's pulling your strings and trying to mess with me?"

The woman, clutching her stomach, got back on her feet and shook her head, "I swear, I don't know. I'm just doing a job for the money."

Josefina wasn't convinced and kept grilling her, but the woman wasn't giving up anything useful.

This whole scenario reminded Josefina of Sydney. Recently, she'd only had run-ins with the Sydney and Marina families. Sylvie's crew was still out of the loop on her involvement.

With nothing more to get out of her, Josefina decided to call in the pros.

She told Hattie to dial the police, and before long, they showed up to escort the woman away.

Josefina then filled Hattie in on what the woman had smeared on herself, advising her to let the other staff members know.

Even a faint scent could still be picked up.

Josefina also shared a few other tips for spotting such things, finally feeling a bit more at ease.

Hattie was stunned that someone would go to such lengths against her. If Josefina hadn't been there today, she'd have been losing her mind.

"Josie, thank you. You're my lucky charm."

"Mom, they're after me. With no direct way to get to me, they're going after those close to me."

"Josie, you're my child. If they attack you, it's like they're attacking me. As long as you're safe, that's all that matters."

Holding Josefina's hand, Hattie was visibly worried.

The idea of hidden dangers lurking around her daughter made Hattie increasingly anxious; she wished she could take on all the risks herself to keep Josefina safe.

"Mom, don't worry. These are just small issues. I can handle them. There's no real danger, trust me."

Hattie sighed inwardly, her heart aching more with each passing thought.
