Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 451

Josefina couldn't hide her amusement as she watched Lena, who was practically glowing with confidence and triumph. What on earth had Lena done to make her so proud?

"Of course, Miss Josefina," Annika responded from the kitchen.

Soon after, Annika emerged with a plate of ravioli.
