Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

"Oliver, calm down for a sec. Sending flowers is a nice gesture, but aren't you worried about the elders getting on your case? Maybe it's best to let it go. Between you and me, I think I can get those seedlings of yours to sprout some seeds."

Oliver was stunned by Josefina's confidence, but he couldn't deny her skills.

She had whipped up a nutrient solution in no time and managed to keep the seedlings thriving on Rose Bay Island – a true testament to her talents.

"I've been studying your island's flowers for quite a while, which is why I could sort out the seedling situation so quickly," Josefina said, a sly grin spreading across her face.

This was news to Oliver - he hadn't realized Josefina had been delving into the seedlings for so long.

"After you mentioned it last time, I had my people look into it again, but there's no sign of your friend," Oliver replied, his voice gentle.

Josefina felt a chill in her heart, her spirits sinking.

"No news might be good news. Maybe your friend will turn up soon," Oliver tried to comfort her.
