The Rebirth Of SOPHIA GREEN - Chapter 227
Kate talked about Andy, who was a P.E. teacher in the same school as her. He was thirty-nine years old. His wife died at an early age, leaving him to live with his son. His son was admitted to a foreign university last year and was now studying abroad.
She was embarrassed to say that she liked Andy and felt that he liked her, too.
Sophia said, “Then you should just tell him. In this situation, he won’t dare to confess his love to you in two years.”
Kate flushed, “No. I’m a woman. How can a woman confess her love to a man first?”
Sophia smiled, “Why not? If I love someone and he’s embarrassed to confess his love to me, I’ll take the initiative to do it. Nowadays, many women confess their love to men. Louie, you know, he gets love letters from girls every day, he just doesn’t respond.”
Kate looked at Sophia in surprise and asked, “Really?”
“Yeah.”
She wanted to help and said, “How about this? You give me Andy’s number. I invite him home to come to have lunch if he’s available.”
Kate flushed, “Is that all right? He’ll be spending Christmas at his own house.”
Sophia smiled, “I’ll ask him for you. He’ll refuse if he’s busy.”
Kate didn’t say anything but put her phone on the table.
Sophia picked up the phone, looked through the call history, and the first name she saw was Andy. She knew what was going on. She clicked on the number and dialed.
Andy’s voice sounded, “Hello, Mrs. Green.”
“Andy, this is Sophia,” Sophia said, “Are you available today? Do you want to come to lunch today?”
“Yeah,” Andy said without hesitation.
Sophia heard the joy in his tone.
Within an hour, Andy arrived with some vegetables and meat from the supermarket.
Kate smiled, “Sophia was a naughty kid. It’s just cooking. I’m sorry to bother you.”
Sophia said nothing. That was her mum, what could she say?
Andy said, “No. Sophia is a good kid. She’s much better than my son.”
Kate said, “You can take your son here when he comes back.”
Andy nodded, “All right.”
Then he washed his hands and went to the kitchen with Kate.
Sophia didn’t want to be the third wheel at this time. She went back to her room to check her phone. As soon as she picked up her phone, it rang. It was from Jasmine.
Jasmine helped take care of Chubby. It took Sophia some time to realize that the “Chubby” on the Internet must be Albert, and Jasmine should be his sister.
Jasmine visited her house several times. Once, she admitted it and said that Albert was responsible for all the bad ideas.
“Happy Christmas, Jasmine,” Sophia picked up the phone and said.
Jasmine smiled, “Happy Christmas, Sophia. Are you available now? How about coming to my house? I’m alone at home and feel bored. Even the servants went home on holiday.”
“Why don’t you go home?”
“I don’t want to. There are so many people at home. It’s too noisy. And as soon as I get home, my parents always urge me to get married. Oh, I can’t stand it. You know, I just enjoy dating but don’t want to get married. Come to me, baby, or… I’ll go to you. Mrs. Green is really kind, I love her.”
Sophia wouldn’t let her come and be the third wheel at this time. Jasmine was straightforward and could say anything.
She said, “I’ll go to you. I’m available now.”
She was the third wheel at home at this time, so she might as well go out.
Jasmine lived not far from her house. She rode for a while and arrived. At a distance, she saw Jasmine standing outside the door, waiting for her.
Sophia followed her into the living room and saw Albert sitting on the sofa, smiling at her.
“Didn’t you go home?” Sophia asked in surprise.
Albert said, “I went home, but… my mom kept asking me when I was going to get married. I got bored and came to my sister. She happened to be urged to get married just like me. Speaking of which, Mrs. Green never urges you.”
Sophia was surprised by his words.
She was only nineteen, not even at the legal age of marriage. Kate was crazy to urge her to get married. And it seemed that she was urging Kate to get married.
Jasmine smiled, “Since you’re here, I have some ingredients in the kitchen, how about we prepare lunch?”
Sophia agreed with this proposal. She wanted to give Kate and Andy more privacy. If possible, she would not go back at noon. Good news might come if they spent more time together.
Of the three, Albert was the only one who could cook. Sophia and Jasmine knew nothing about cooking and could only do some help.
“How about inviting Mrs. Green here?” Albert said, “I’ll go to pick her up. You’re out. It’s not good to leave her alone at home.”
Sophia shook her head with a smile, “No. She’s fine.”
Albert was stunned and soon figured it out. “Was that the Andy I met downstairs?”
As Sophia’s neighbor, he had seen Kate and Andy in a car.
“Yeah.” Sophia nodded.
Albert hesitated and said, “Well, do you know what kind of person he is? He’s…”
Sophia was stunned for a moment and asked, “What?”
Albert thought for a while and said, “I don’t know if I should tell you this, but… I know this guy. He’s the eldest son of the Sterling family. Our company is working with their company, the Sterling Group. They were kind of a wealthy family.”
Sophia paused. She didn’t expect that.
Andy was a teacher, wasn’t he? Why was there a Sterling Group?
She shouldn’t judge him because of his rich family. But she had to tell Kate about this.
She prepared the meat and turned to ask Jasmine, “Jasmine, your potatoes…”
Only after looking back did she find that Jasmine had left at some point.
This scene… Why did she feel familiar with it?
It was not the first time that Sophia had been alone with Albert, but she suddenly felt her heart skip a beat.
She looked around but didn’t see Jasmine. “Pearson, where’s Jasmine?” She asked.
Albert shook her head, “I don’t know. She’s always gone.. Maybe she’s on a date.”
