Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Chapter 95

Hattie's voice crackled through the phone with a mix of earnest affection and logic, "Your sister was quite unfortunate! She was mistakenly swapped at birth, and her foster parents had been so harsh on her. Imagine, poor thing had to brave the bitter winter to do laundry, cook, and feed the pigs. That darn Billy, I swear! Tell me, how could you not treat your sister right?”

Garrett spoke with a stern tone, "As Josie's brother, you should look out for her. If you don't, you might as well pack your bags and leave this house. I won't call you my son! Just imagine if you had been the one taken in by the wrong family, living on scraps, cooking, and getting beaten, and then you found your real family... what kind of treatment would you hope for?”

Robert also rang up Calix, “Josie saved your grandma's life. If it wasn’t for her coming back, your grandma might have passed away by now. Calix, if you don't treat Josie right, I'll disown you as my grandson!”

Calix was curious as to what kind of girl could win the hearts of three elders to such an extent and earn their ceaseless praise. Now that Josefina stood before him, he truly adored her!

"Josie, you've had it rough. From now on, I've got your back. My money is your money." With that, Calix transferred five million dollars to Josefina as spending money.

"And I’ve got a couple of cars. If you fancy any, they’re yours."

"I’ve also got a collection of antiques. I’ll give them to you, too."

"I’ve got a few businesses in my name, so consider them yours as well."

Lena walked in just in time to catch Calix's generous offers. Her heart raced, her hands shook - a whirlwind of excitement at the thought of her father, her mother, a house, cars, and a fortune!

Overwhelmed, Lena exclaimed, "Calix, you're so good to me."

Calix nodded affirmatively. "Lena, you're my sister. Of course, I'll treat you right."

Just as Lena was about to ask when she'd receive all these gifts, she heard Calix speaking to Josefina. "Josie, whenever it's convenient for you, I’ll bring all these gifts to your place. Mom and Dad told me your room's too small, so I'll clear out the east wing villa for you to store your presents."

Lena was stunned! That was the castle-like villa she had always dreamed of! And now it was being handed to Josefina?!

Why?!

Biting her tongue in fury, Lena’s pain brought tears to her eyes. She was livid.

Josefina noticed Lena was upset and said to Calix, "Thank you, but these gifts are too valuable. I can't accept them."

She picked up her purse and pressed the elevator button. "I’ll go upstairs to change."

"Alrighty, Josie, you head up. I’ll cut up some fruit for you," Calix offered eagerly as he dashed to the kitchen.

Hattie was rolling out dough, Garrett was making pies, and even Robert was simmering seafood chowder.

Robert mused, "Josie surely would love a bowl of my chowder."

Garrett chimed in, "No one knows my girl like I do. She'd kill for my pie."

Hattie countered, "You're both wrong. She's my girl, and I know her best. She's craving the pasta I make."

As they debated, Calix arrived. "Make way, make way. I'm fixing a fruit plate for my sister."

Robert looked up, "Which sister?" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"Who else but my Josie? My poor sister has had it so tough. I've got to make it up to her."

Robert smiled warmly. "That's more like it."

Garrett added, "Don't forget to give your sister some pocket money. Are you going to let your money mold away instead of giving it to her?"

"I just transferred some to her. I didn't want to overwhelm her, so I just sent a modest five million."

Hattie applauded, "Well done. As a reward, you can drive Josie to work tomorrow."

Calix was taken aback, and, to his surprise, he nicked his finger with the fruit knife. "Ouch, that hurts like the dickens!"
