Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Oliver furrowed his brow as he stared at his phone. [Spill it.]

George replied to Oliver, [We've confirmed that Ms. Josefina was indeed at the lab that day with Percy and Luke.]

Oliver's frown deepened, and then he typed back, [Josie's got a knack for healing, and Percy's a doc. It's only natural she was there for some medical emergency.]

[Oliver,] George ventured, [is it possible that Ms. Josefina is the new heir to the House of Adams?]

Oliver said, [Can you shut up?]

George's hands trembled as they clutched the phone. Had he just stated the obvious, the fact that Oliver had known all along?

George quickly deleted the message and added, [You're absolutely right, Oliver. Ms. Josefina is as delicate as a lamb, too frail to fend for herself. She must have been there to lend a hand.] Oliver didn't respond, and George felt like he'd dodged a bullet.

Slipping the phone into his pocket, Oliver overheard Brandon say, "Hey, Oliver, I heard at dinner that Judson gave Josie a present. This Judson guy, could he be Judson Adams?"

Oliver Said, "Grandpa, you're overthinking it."
