Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Of course, Billy had to cough up everything he hadn't yet gotten his hands on.

Jade had no idea what Josefina meant by that, but she couldn't help thinking Josefina was just too cool for words!

Alex's face was a patchwork of bruises and cuts, a sight that was hard to stomach. Jade's gaze shifted from Josefina's striking beauty to Alex's battered face, and she couldn't suppress a gasp. "Alex, you look like you've been through the wringer."

Alex managed a wry smile. "You finally remember me, huh?"

Josefina took charge. "First things first, get to the hospital and get those wounds checked out. Make sure you keep all the paperwork tidy. It'll come in handy later."

She handed Alex a business card with Percy's name on it. "Go see him. He'll patch you up and make sure you get all the reports you need."

Having someone on the inside at the hospital sure made things easier.

Alex and Jade had complete faith in Josefina. After all, she had saved their lives. Who else could they trust if not her?

Josefina continued, "Take a few days off. Don't worry about work; just focus on getting to the hospital and getting checked out."
