Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Chapter 69

Ruby fidgeted in Billy's office, feeling the weight of his hopeful gaze boring into her.

"Ruby, I know you have a knack for fashion design. With our sales soaring, you should really whip up some new designs."

Designing clothes was no easy task, and Ruby knew she was in over her head. She bit her lip and looked up with a forced smile. "Dad, I've just been in a bit of a funk lately. It's throwing off my creative groove. Give me some time to bounce back, and I'll get those sketches to you."

Billy whipped out his smartphone and transferred $15,000 to her. "Go treat yourself to some comfort food, maybe a new outfit. Ruby, the company's riding on your talents. And mark my words, I'll carve out a share for you in the business. If your brother can't cut it, you'll take the reins."

Ruby completely fell for those words.

She feared that Josefina might come at her for plagiarism. She had two more of Josefina's sketches, but she was afraid of revealing them. Now, it seemed she had no choice.
