Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 989

Josefina wielded the knife she brought with her, handling it with such finesse that it seemed more like she was tending to a bonsai than conducting an autopsy. She expertly sliced away the unnecessary parts, kept what was essential, and anything beyond saving was neatly removed and discarded.

Even though Willow had assisted in autopsies before, the sight still made her stomach do somersaults. Dr. Lee, however, was watching with a mix of shock and admiration, his eyes shining with intrigue.

"Josefina, your technique is quite remarkable. Where did you train?" he asked, genuinely curious.

"Dr. Lee, I haven’t worked in any hospital. I've just got a bunch of certifications," Josefina replied casually.

Willow almost rolled her eyes. Medical certifications were no walk in the park, after all.

"Some folks talk like getting certified is a piece of cake," Willow muttered under her breath.

Josefina continued her work unfazed. "Sure, it's tough, but when you work hard, it pays off."

With that, Josefina deftly pulled out something unusual hidden inside Sydney's body.

Willow and Dr. Lee gasped in unison. "What is that?" they exclaimed.

"A parasite," Josefina answered coolly.

Dr. Lee and Willow were momentarily stunned. They hadn’t expected to find anything like that inside Sydney.

Josefina carefully placed the parasite into a jar and carried on with her work alongside Dr. Lee and Willow.

Josefina was there to see if the parasite would die now that Sydney was gone. The higher-ups were watching this case closely. If Oliver kept a lid on some details and the story blew up, it could lead to serious repercussions.

Now, with everything out in the open, they could proceed without any secrecy.

...

Oliver had been waiting outside for quite some time when Josefina finally emerged. He immediately approached her, noting the fatigue etched on her face. "Let me take you home," he offered gently.

Josefina nodded in agreement.

Just as they were about to leave, Willow called out to them.

Willow sneered. "And what right would that be?"

"Mine," a voice replied.

At that moment, an elderly professor walked up, looking at Willow with a stern expression. "Is my authority sufficient?"

Willow was caught off guard. "Dr. Hansen, what brings you here?"

"Do I need to check in with you now?" Dr. Hansen asked icily.

"N-no, of course not," Willow stammered, her confidence shaken.

Dr. Hansen turned to Josefina, his demeanor softening. "Josefina, you’ve finally arrived."

"Dr. Hansen, it’s been a while," Josefina greeted warmly.

"Indeed, it has. The last time I saw you was three years ago. I never expected you to make it to Westwood," Dr. Hansen remarked with a smile.
