Chapter 49


    Lena rolled her eyes inwardly but managed to keep a smile on her face as she nodded earnestly,


    "Mom, Dad, I promise I''ll take good care of Sis. You guys have nothing to worry about."


    Her parents nodded in agreement and headed back into the house together. Taking a deep breath,


    Lena turned and followed them inside, continuing her performance.


    Meanwhile, in the car.


    The two bodyguards addressed her respectfully, "Miss."

    The driver, a man with a scar across his cheek, spoke with reverence, "Miss, it''s good to see you


    again."


    The bodyguard in the passenger seat chimed in, "From now on we can officially stay by your side to


    protect you. Your safety is our responsibility."


    Josefina nodded, "Jett, Tori, have you found out who was behind my kidnapping?"


    Both men shook their heads in unison. Jett spoke as he drove, "The culprit has covered their tracks


    well. Upon realizing they were discovered, they cut all ties swiftly."


    Tori added, "All the contact information was through burner phones, untraceable and dead ends."


    Josefina''sst glimmer of hope faded. If she ever got her hands on the mastermind, she wouldn''t let


    them off easily.


    Tori, sitting shotgun, handed a small box of candies to Josefina, "Miss, your favorite sweets."


    A smile broke on Josefina''s face as she saw the candies, "Thanks, Tori."


    "Mister has been asking about you. He said to give him a call when you have a moment."


    "Will do," replied Josefina as she popped a candy into her mouth.


    ...


    When Brandon found out Josefina wasing over, he immediately called Oliver.


    The Baldwin family estate was enormous. It took ten minutes just to drive from the gate to the living


    room. Josefina''s car rolled in, and under the butler''s guidance, she parked and made her way to the


    living room.


    The vast living room glittered with a crystal chandelier, and the sophisticated design around spoke


    volumes of the homeowner''s taste.


    "Josie, you are here. Please make yourselffortable."


    Brandon''s eyes were filled with warmth as he gestured towards the assortment of pastries and


    beverages on the table. He continued, "Josie, I heard about your kidnapping from Oliver, and I''m


    terribly sorry. I wanted to visit you, but he said you had already gone home. Josie, I feel terrible. You


    came to see me and then got abducted."


    Josefina''s face lit up with aforting smile, "Grandpa Brandon, none of this is your fault. The


    kidnapper was after me. Even if I hadn''te to your ce that day, danger would''ve found me


    regardless."


    Her reassurance only made Brandon feel more apologetic and guilty.


    "Grandpa Brandon, how are you feeling these days? I have a bottle of pills here for you. Take one


    each day and call me if anythinges up." Josefina ced a white porcin bottle in front of him,


    her eyes clear and sincere, instilling even more trust in her words.


    Without hesitation, Brandon epted the bottle with a chuckle, "When should I take these pills?"


    "At night, right before bed."


    Brandon nodded, "Josie, thanks for the medicine. What kind of gift should I give you in return? How


    about this—I''ll give you a card, and you can buy whatever you want. That won''t go to waste."


    Brandon wanted to give a meaningful gift but wasn''t sure what would suit Josefina''s taste, so he


    figured money was the most practical offering. After all, cash is king.


    He pulled out a ck card, and the butler presented it to Josefina with utmost respect.


    Josefina quickly protested, "Brandon, thank you for the generous offer, but it''s too much. I really


    can''t ept it."


    But Brandon insisted, his voice full of affection, "Josie,pared to money, my life is definitely more


    valuable."
