Chapter 706
After checking Sydney's pulse, Josefina said, "I think your leg issue might be related to your living environment. Let's have this expert take a look around your place."
Sydney raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"Just let him walk around outside your house. He won't need to go in. He's just checking the vibes, that's all," Josefina explained.
Sydney was hesitant but didn't want to miss any chance of recovery. Since it was just an outside look, why not?
She glanced at Dominic, who nodded and said to Josefina, "Sure, I'll show him around."
"Alright, off you go then."
Luke nodded and followed Dominic outside.
Anxiously, Sydney asked, "So, what's the deal with my leg? When will I be able to stand again?"
Josefina smiled faintly. "That's hard to say."
Shay glanced at Josefina and, leaning against the sofa, chuckled, "You seemed so confident before we came. Now you look all worried, as if you can't fix my mom's leg. Josefina, are you just here to joke around?"
Josefina smiled back, "I never said I could definitely cure Mrs. Jiang's leg! Dominic begged me to come here, and you apologized to get me here. Which part of that sounded like a guaranteed cure to you?"
Sydney frowned and said, "Shay, could you check if the coffee's ready? And bring some snacks and cakes too."
Shay muttered under her breath. Since when did Josefina become our maid? She wasn't a servant! Biting back her anger, Shay had no choice but to check the kitchen.
After Shay left, Sydney, trying to keep things light, asked, "Josefina, honestly, do I have a chance of standing again?"
Josefina responded frankly, "It's tough to say, I really can't make out the specifics. Mrs. Jiang, you might want to seek help elsewhere."
Josefina stood up, and Percy quickly moved to her side to ensure her safety.
Hearing this, Sydney was devastated and shouted, "If you can't help, then why are you even here!"
"Didn't Dominic plead for me to
come? He even said he'd get Shay
apologize if I die, If it
bai's
If it weren Weren't sincerity, I at wouldn't have come
all."
Sydney was speechless. It dawned on her that they might have all been played by Josefina.
Just then, Shay walked out from the kitchen, catching the tail end of Josefina's words.
"Josefina, what are you saying? Are you playing us?" Shay, visibly upset, put down the tray and approached.
Josefina stood, ready to leave at any moment. "What, you planning on hitting someone now?" Josefina crossed her arms.
Percy coldly stated, "You asked us here to help, we never promised a cure. What's this? Since when is forcing a deal part of doing business?"
Josefina added, "If you don't believe
me, ask Dominic. I told him I wasn't sure I could
he isto his mother's leg, but
he insisted it was fine as long as I came."
Percy grabbed Josefina's arm, "Stay behind me, let's see what they want to do."
Shay was fuming. Just moments
ago, she had humbled herself to
apologize to Josefina and Oliver had
heard it. All this for nothing
Josefina couldn't help? Why@ome
then? Just to humiliate her?
Josefina, with a smile, said, "I'll go find Dominic and have him talk to you." With that,
she and Percy started to back away.
