Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 456

Josefina chuckled at Reid's persistence. "Thanks for the thought, but let's skip the welcome gift. I’m doing fine financially, no need to send me money."

Reid was stunned. Whenever he sent money to Lena, she was always ecstatic.

Why wasn't Josefina thrilled? Isn't getting money always a good thing?

Puzzled, Reid asked, "Why don’t you want the welcome gift I sent? Is it too little?"

Josefina laughed, "How could it be too little? I've got more money than I know what to do with. I appreciate the gesture, but let's skip the cash. If you’re really set on giving, go ahead and transfer it."

Reid was speechless...

Seeing the extra million, Josefina was amused. "Why did you send another million?"

"Just in case you thought it was too little."

Josefina was flabbergasted.

"Ruby, what’s gotten into you?"
