Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 388

"Oliver, calm down for a sec. Sending flowers is a nice gesture, but aren't you worried about the elders getting on your case? Maybe it's best to let it go. Between you and me, I think I can get those seedlings of yours to sprout some seeds."

Oliver was stunned by Josefina's confidence, but he couldn't deny her skills.

She had whipped up a nutrient solution in no time and managed to keep the seedlings thriving on Rose Bay Island – a true testament to her talents.

"I've been studying your island's flowers for quite a while, which is why I could sort out the seedling situation so quickly," Josefina said, a sly grin spreading across her face.

This was news to Oliver – he hadn't realized Josefina had been delving into the seedlings for so long.

The topic brought a wave of melancholy over Josefina. "When Siyu went to the island for the auction and vanished... Oliver, can you confirm if there's any word on her whereabouts?"

"After you mentioned it last time, I had my people look into it again, but there's no sign of your friend," Oliver replied, his voice gentle.

Josefina felt a chill in her heart, her spirits sinking.

"No news might be good news. Maybe your friend will turn up soon," Oliver tried to comfort her.

The thought of Livia's disappearance weighed heavily on Josefina.

Oliver wrapped an arm around her, whispering, "I'll keep people on it, expanding the search from Demon's Isle outward. We'll find her."

"Thank you, Oliver."

"Don't mention it. What's mine is yours, and they're at your service."

Josefina leaned into Oliver's embrace, grateful for his help.

...

Out of the corner of his eye, Oliver spotted Grant arriving and knew it was time to stake his claim!

Josefina said, "Master, he's decided to have us plant Lucifer's Breath all over Rose Bay Island to help you break into new ventures."

Hayden was overjoyed but felt conflicted. He wasn't in the business of selling off his girls.

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We've got some on the island already, and the business is Hellfire's. I can't be taking that away from him, or those five old timers would have his head."

"I'll handle that, no worries on your part, Hayden," Oliver reassured him.

Hayden waved his hands dismissively, "No, no, I'm not bartering my girls. As long as you two are happy, that's all that matters to me."

Grant entered, his expression stern and angry, "I disagree!"
