Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 1225

Emily and Hattie were chatting when they noticed Josefina walking over. Their conversation immediately stopped, and Hattie stood up to greet her.

“Josie, you’re back! Did you eat? Are you tired? Want me to call the massage therapist to help you relax?”

“Mom, I’m really fine. Everything’s good.”

Josefina sat down, wondering if this was the right time to bring up the twins with Hattie and Emily.

Just as she was about to say something, Emily’s phone rang.

Josefina’s words died on her lips, and she ended up talking to Hattie about something else.

A moment later, Emily ended her call. “That was a friend of mine—she just got to Westwood and wants to have dinner tomorrow.”

As she spoke, Emily stood up. “I should head home and get things ready. I want to treat her to a nice meal.”

Emily turned to Josefina, a gentle smile on her face. “Josie, Grandma’s heading home now. You have to take care of yourself, okay? Don’t push too hard.”

“I know, Grandma. You take care, too.”

Whatever Josefina had wanted to say, she swallowed it down.

Maybe it’d be better to wait for another time.

...

A few days later, Cassandra reached out and asked to meet Josefina. Gone was the arrogance from before—she was quiet, cooperative, even a little fragile.

It was obvious she knew she’d lost, and lost badly.

Now, she had no choice but to come to Josefina for help.

But would Josefina actually help her?

When Josefina heard about the request, she agreed to meet. They sat down in a coffee shop, and Josefina noticed right away that Cassandra looked thinner, worn out—like the weight of everything had finally caught up to her.

“Fiona, please. I need your help.”

“You want my help? You’re really asking me for a favor?” Josefina smiled faintly, almost amused. “Why do you think I should help you?”
