Chapter 619
The Harrison household was buzzing with tension as Grandma Harrison wheeled herself into the living room, Mandy right on her heels. Feeling bolstered by her grandmother's presence, Mandy's confidence was through the roof.
"Grandma, can you believe Aunt Hattie? She's sidelining Lena for this new kid she found. Lena's been nothing but amazing. If it wasn't for Lena's therapy sessions, you'd still be bedridden, not even able to sit in that wheelchair."
Grandma Harrison, Alivia, furrowed her brows and shot a stern look at Hattie. “Hattie, where's Lena? She promised she could help me walk again. Without her, how am I supposed to get back on my feet? Find me a doctor!"
"Mom, Josie's a doctor too. Maybe she can help you stand," Hattie suggested, trusting in Josefina's medical expertise.
"Her? A doctor? What kind of doctor? One who just talks big?" Alivia snapped, clearly irritated.
Mandy added fuel to the fire, "Auntie, you're really out of line here."
Hattie couldn't help but chuckle, “Am I wrong for loving my child? Mandy, put yourself in Josie's shoes. Wouldn't you want your family's support? Besides, we never kicked Lena out. She chose to leave!"
Hattie wasn't lying; Lena had indeed left on her own accord.
The house felt lonely with just Hattie around. When she heard that Alivia and Mandy were coming over, she rushed back home.
As soon as she arrived, Alivia started her interrogation.
Hattie sat on the couch, took a sip of water, and felt a heavy weight on her chest. She hadn't expected this visit.
Alivia's voice cut through the air again, "Where's Josefina? Bring her out. I need to have a word with her."
Just then, Josefina walked in and approached Alivia with a respectful demeanor. "Hello, I'm Josefina."
Alivia looked up, scrutinizing the young woman standing before her. With her vibrant smile and elegant features, Josefina exuded both innocence and allure.

"Oh, so you're the little vixen who drove Lena away? At such a young age, and already so malicious, mocked
Josefina responded with a polite smile, "never drove Lena away S chose to leave it's not fail to blame me
"Then why hasn't Lena called me?" Alivia demanded.
Hattie jumped in, "Mom, like I told you, Lena's just been busy."
No matter what Hattie said, Alivia wasn't having any of it, her gaze icy.
"You're still trying to deceive me?”
Mandy chimed in, "Auntie, look how upset you've made Grandma."
Alivia, clutching her chest, became visibly agitated, her complexion changing rapidly.
Quickly, Josefina handed some fast-acting heart pills to Hattie, who then placed them in Alivia's mouth.
Soon after, Alivia felt much better. The pills worked wonders, even more effectively than Lena's treatments.
Alivia looked at Josefina, puzzled and slightly suspicious.
Mandy, still displeased, asked, “Where did you get those pills? Don't tell me you made them yourself?"
Hattie sighed, "Mandy, can you stop judging Josie so harshly? Yes, Josie made those heart pills."
Before Alivia could respond, Hattie continued, "You might not know, but
Josie was the national champion in
this year's final exams, and she's currently studying at the University of Melbourne. Josie's not only academically gifted but also highly skilled in medicine."
