Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Lena burst through her room door, adrenaline surging, only to be tackled by a man who seemingly appeared out of nowhere.

"Help! Someone help me!" Lena's cry for help echoed through the hallway.

Thankfully, a passing bellhop saw the struggle and rushed to Lena's aid, prying the man off of her. Had it not been for the bellhop's timely intervention, Lena might have been dragged back into the room. Her heart still racing, Lena scanned the room and found no sign of Josefina.

The hotel manager, upon hearing the commotion, wasted no time in calling the cops, and before Lena could even object, the authorities were on the scene. The men were hauled off by the police, and Lena was asked to give her statement.

"Ms. Lena," the officer began, with a look of bewilderment on his face, "our security footage shows you entering the room with five men, and then emerging shortly after. Are you acquainted with them?" It was an unusual case for the officer. A woman with five men in a room during broad daylight - what on earth was going on?

Lena clenched her jaw, her indignation flaring. "Who said I went in with those guys?" She had paid good money to have the surveillance tapes destroyed. There shouldn't have been any footage left. But there it was, as the police played the recording for her. "Ms. Lena, here you all are entering the room together. Look closely, isn't that you?"

Lena's eyes widened in disbelief. How had the camera footage been restored?

With her fists balled up, Lena was at a loss for words. She couldn't reveal the truth, so she could only grit her teeth in silence.

Before long, Hattie and Josefina arrived at the scene. Seeing Josefina safe and unharmed, Lena's eyes burned with fury.

This had to be Josefina's doing!

But how did Josefina know what Lena was up to? Originally, Lena had been plotting against Josefina. She had watched Josefina walk into that room before she left.

Hattie was informed of the situation

by the police and turned to Lena in disbelief. "Is there some kind of mistake? Why would Lena be mixed up with a bunch of thugs and checked into a room?" Hattie

couldn't even begin to imagine such a scenario.

The officer reported, "We have it on video. She went into the room with the five men, one after the other, and came out with a smile on her face."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Hearing this, Hattie's eyes were filled with shock. She had watched Lena grow up, and knew her strong-willed nature, but never imagined Lena would be involved with hoodlums. Josefina tried to console her mother, "Mom, let's talk to Lena. Maybe there's been a misunderstanding?"

Hattie and Josefina approached Lena, who was visibly shaken.

Lena demanded, "How did you both get here together?" She was convinced, Josefina was there to revel in her misfortune.

Lena's emotions were very unstable, her sharp gaze fixed on Josefina, filled with anger that had nowhere to be vented.

Hattie spoke first, "Lena, the hotel manager knows me. He called to tell me you were in trouble. I bumped into Josie outside the police station. She was handling an issue for her friend Luke, and we just ran into each other."

Despite Hattie's explanation, Lena was still visibly upset. "Mom, someone's framing me. They're out to get me!" Lena clutched Hattie's hand, her voice trembling with emotion. Hattie's heart ached. "Lena, calm down," Hattie soothed.

Lena's eyes remained locked on Josefina, full of resentment. Josefina's detached gaze only fueled Lena's agitation.

With a frown, Hattie asked, "Lena, why were you with those men?"

The question forced Lena to regain her composure. Taking a deep breath, Lena finally spoke, "They tried to kidnap me. They said if I didn't do what they wanted, they'd kill me."
