Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 578

Pondering Lena's fate, Dorian said, "Josie, don't sweat it. With all the wrongs she's done, it's only right she faces the music."

Josefina brought up the man in the picture who had disguised himself. Dorian wasn't surprised; he'd already guessed as much.

"Lena was just a pawn. Those folks wouldn't dare show their true colors."

Josefina nodded, still eager to wrap up this mess quickly.

While they were talking, Josefina's phone rang. It was Bill.

"Lena's kicked the bucket," Bill said.

Josefina wasn't shocked, just shook her head in dismay.

The line between good and evil can be as thin as a razor's edge.

Josefina hung up and noticed the complexity in Dorian's expression.

"In the past, we treated her like family, never imagining she'd turn out to be the culprit. What goes around comes around, and Lena, she's gotta pay the piper for her actions."

"Dorian, should we fill in Mom and Dad about this?"

"I'll handle it, Josie. It's getting late; you should hit the hay. Annika mentioned you've been burning the candle at both ends. As important as this is, your health comes first."

"Dorian, I'll take care of myself. You too, get some rest."

"Will do," Dorian said with a smile.

Josefina nodded, feeling the weight of exhaustion. After exchanging a few more words with Dorian, she headed to her room to sleep.

...

The next day, Grant was rudely awakened by a phone call before he even got out of bed.

"How about we meet up?" the caller suggested.

"Perfect my foot! If I poison him, won't I be the prime suspect? You want me to do your dirty work? Think I'm a fool?"

The man was flabbergasted. According to his intel, Grant was smitten with Josefina.

Wouldn't this plan give him a chance with her? It was supposed to be a win-win.

Why was Grant refusing?

Was there something wrong with his head?

"Grant, are you seriously not going to work with us?" The man was getting desperate. Only with Grant's help could they get Oliver to the right spot for their plan to succeed.

Otherwise, who knew where Oliver might end up dining?

The man pressed, "Work with me, Grant, and you're sure to come out on top."

"Come out on top my ass! Let me tell you straight, I'm not going to team up with a bunch of blockheads like you! You think you can take down Oliver? Better check if your own boss will live long enough to see it!"
