Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

All eyes were on Annika as she began to speak, her voice carrying above the hum of conversation. "I heard this from Lily while I was whipping up some grub in the kitchen. One day, I catch Lily in tears, tucked away in a corner. After gabbing for a bit, she spills the beans about Regina's antics. Said Regina made her tidy up Ms. Josefina's room, and when it wasn't spotless, she gave her an earful. Regina even threw in that Ms. Josefina's a tough cookie with a thing for cleanliness."

Josefina interjected, "Didn't I ban her from my room?"

Annika continued, unfazed, "Ms. Josefina, no offense, but your words just bounced off her. She didn't take them to heart." Josefina's voice rose with indignation. "Is this how you work? The Harrisons pay you top dollar, and this is how you serve?"

Regina was fuming, her anger barely contained. It was crystal clear-Josefina was out to corner her.

Garrett was furious, not about the embezzled money, but the fact that Regina had the audacity to bully his darling daughter Josie. This was something he could not and would not tolerate. "Call the police." he bellowed.

At his words, Regina panicked. "Miss Lena, please help me! For the love of God, save me! After all these years of looking after you, help me out. I can't face jail time."
