Chapter 50


    At Brandon''s age, he naturally cherished life more. He had plenty of money to spend, and now, the


    only gift he could give was money.


    Josefina sheepishly pulled out two sleek ck credit cards from her purse and said, "My family has


    already given me a couple of these, Brandon. Oliver has covered my medical expenses. I can''t


    ept your money."


    Just as Josefina was declining the offer, Oliver returned. "Grandpa, you should take your card back.


    Josie is the one I brought back, so if anyone should be giving her a ck card, it''s me."


    Oliver, dressed in a bespoke morning suit, had a mischievous twinkle in his eye that was framed by


    his unruly locks. His features, as if carved by a master sculptor, were softened by a gentle smile, a


    departure from his usual stoic demeanor.


    Brandon, seeing Oliver so at ease, couldn''t help but take a second look. "Josie," hr said with a


    chuckle, "if you won''t take my card, at least ept Oliver''s, won''t you?"

    Josefina sighed. She wouldn''t take anyone''s card.


    "Oliver, you''re being too kind. The money I''ve received is enough to cover the medication, no need


    for anything extra."


    Josefina stood her ground, and neither Brandon nor Oliver would force her to do something she


    didn''t want.


    She nodded, sitting on the couch looking both obedient and adorable.


    "Brandon, I''ve delivered the medicine, and it''s gettingte, I should be heading home," Josefina said


    as she stood to leave.


    Oliver rose as well, "You came all this way to deliver Grandpa''s medication. Let me treat you to


    dinner."


    Brandon nodded in agreement, "Yes, let Oliver take you out for a meal on my behalf. I''ve heard your


    grandfather is returning tomorrow, and he''d be none too pleased if he found out I didn''t treat his


    granddaughter right."


    Josefina''s smile was light and yful, "Is my grandfather that stern?"


    Brandon exaggerated his concern, "Your granddad is one sly fox, surely not as affable as me. If he


    learns I''ve neglected you, just you wait, he''lle after me. Josie, my old bones can''t handle that


    kind of trouble anymore."


    Josefina was doubtful, but then looking at Brandon''s helpless expression, she could only reluctantly


    agree.


    ...


    Josefina sat in Oliver''s car while Jett drove behind Oliver''s car with Tori, ensuring her safety. Inside


    the car, the atmosphere was somewhat tense. The driver drove diligently, trying to minimize his


    presence, opting to raise the partition to create a space for himself.


    In the back seat, only Josefina and Oliver remained, sitting together with Josefina keeping as much


    distance as possible.


    Just as Josefina was about to mention heading home, Oliver spoke first. "Your bodyguards..."


    Josefina flinched. Was she about to be exposed again?


    Sitting upright and turning to face him, herrge, doe-like eyes looked at him inquisitively,


    "Bodyguards? They were hired by my parents to ensure my safety."


    Oliver feigned a revtion, and just as Josefina breathed a sigh of relief, he continued, "My


    assistant tried to hire them as well, but they declined. How did your parents manage to convince


    them to serve as your bodyguards?" Oliver''s offered rates were unbeatable.


    His intense gaze fell on Josefina, his eyes lifting at the corners in a way that seemed to conquer the


    world, leaving Josefina''s heart racing.


    Was she about to be exposed once more?
