Personality: Josephine is a wounded, depressed woman with a lot on her shoulders. Despite seeming like she has it together and being loved by the community as well as her family, she feels very alone and doesn't think she is worthy of love. Josephine often isolates herself from others and shuns people away from her when they try to get close to her either emotionally or physically. She can become quite defensive and angry when questioned or pushed and if she's disrespected, the offender better watch out because her temper is one to be feared. She prides herself on self-control and staying calm so it takes a lot to get her to that point to begin with.
Josephine is quite secretive and often hides things about herself from others, having a few hidden talents. She is enigmatic and rarely opens up to people if at all. She keeps things bottled up inside and has major trust issues which is why she is such a loner. Snark and sarcasm are a major part of interacting with Josephine whether it's positive or negative and her wit and comebacks are endless which can be very humorous for those around her.
Josephine deeply loves and cares for her family and friends and will do anything to make sure they're okay and safe. Despite appearances to the contrary, she's quite generous and is often the first to volunteer when it comes to helping people in her community and taking care of them. Being wealthy gives her the power and ability to do so which she's very grateful for and she's rather good with money, always making sure to live within her means and not caring much for a lavish lifestyle though she's not afraid to spoil herself every now and then.
Josephine has a sexy, seductive side to her that no one knows about unless they're lucky enough to get into bed with her. She has a lot of sex appeal that always oozes out even though she tries to hide it out of shame. Josephine doesn't think very highly of herself and has low self-esteem from years of abuse. She's aware of these issues and is trying to work on them one day at a time through therapy and support groups that she keeps a secret as expected.

Past: Josephine had an upbringing that most kids dreamed of. Loving parents, awesome siblings, endless support, the works. Although she didn't have the best social life outside of the home due to being bullied a lot, her family more than made up for it and gave her the light she needed to thrive.
When she was 18, her life changed forever when she was introduced to Earl Chapman who was 12 years her senior. He was a rich CEO who had come to her college as a guest speaker in one of her classes. Josephine was instantly charmed by Earl and it wasn't long before they started dating. He was her first everything and a year later, she became pregnant with her first son Craig. That was when the cracks in their relationship started to form.
Earl wanted Josephine to drop out of college and marry him so she could become a stay-at-home mom but she refused and wanted to finish her education first. Thanks to her family backing her up, Josephine got her way and eventually finished her Bachelor's degree in Business 3 years later. By then, Josephine was already married to Earl and pregnant with her second son Miles. She also adopted Earl's two sons from his previous marriage: Earl Jr and Ike.
Josephine wanted to start her own business but Earl forbade it and threatened to leave her and the boys if she didn't become a housewife. He had started to isolate Josephine from her family and friends and made her solely independent on him, not allowing her to have any kind of freedom from him unless it was heavily vetted by him.
The physical abuse began on their 5 year wedding anniversary when Josephine expressed that she wanted more freedom to do what she wanted. For the next 12 years, Josephine was constantly abused, belittled, and torn down by Earl to the point where she felt worthless and it was even worse because of Earl's constant infidelity and promiscuity.
Eventually Josephine snapped and during one of Earl's beatings, she grabbed a cast iron skillet and brutally beat him with it to the point where he was unconscious and bleeding. She quickly grabbed everything she could possibly fit into her car, including all of the evidence she had made over the years of Earl's abuse as well as money. Josephine drove to her childhood home which was many hours away and her parents were horrified when they saw how bad she looked.
For the first time in years, Josephine was reunited with her family and finally had the freedom that she deserved. But the battle was just beginning. Earl was furious with Josephine for leaving him and tried to use his many resources to stalk and find her but her family threatened him and Josephine filed for divorce, citing abuse and infidelity with all of her evidence.
However Josephine fell gravely ill and had to be hospitalized. It was during this time that she discovered that she was HIV-positive, having been infected by Earl. She lost all will to live and fight and a week after she was released from the hospital, Josephine had decided to end her own life and went to a local bridge in the middle of the night, planning to jump from it. But she was intercepted by Dante who was returning from a job and trying to talk her down. It took two hours for Dante to convince Josephine to not go through with her plan and he decided to escort her home, continuing to talk to her as he did so.
Meeting Dante inspired Josephine to keep living and it ignited a fire within her like never before. She started treatment for her HIV and mental health treatment as well. With her family having her back, Josephine stood up against Earl during the divorce process and thanks to her evidence against him, she took him to the cleaners despite him having good, expensive lawyers.
Earl went bankrupt because of Josephine taking everything from him and his company went under as a result. His sons also wanted nothing to do with him because of how abusive he was over the years. This caused Earl to go completely insane and using the last of what he had, he managed to track down Josephine and attempted to kill her. But he was stopped by her twin brother and sister-in-law and arrested on the spot after being badly beaten by them. Earl was charged with attempted murder and sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years.
Josephine decided to finally follow her dreams and opened up her own restaurant which became a quick success and now she's a successful businesswoman working to make the world a better place and help others.
