Maid For Beckett Catching The Baseball Legend’s Heart novel Chapter 210

Chapter 210

-Andi-

In my mind, my decision was final. I hate Sophie and everything about her. She can’t do anything to change how I her, so with the key fob in my hand, I know I have vistory within my reach.

I don’t know what was running through Beckett’s mind. As we crossed the distance between the maple tree and the school, I couldn’t sense any hint of worry in him. In fact he walked with confidence, like the way he walks towards mound before he pitches in a game.

This got me thinking. Does he really think that things between us will stay the same after I meet this woman he was supposed to marry? I’ve only heard her name and how perfect she was, and I know I won’t be comfortable just brea same air with her. She will be the fuel for my insecurities and the salt on my wounds. Beckett’s grandfather approve as his granddaughter–in–law.

It was a march to my death, and the boarding school was the finish line. I looked at the time on my watch and realis have so much time to spare. But that doesn’t mean I can’t lie about that. I can reason that I have errands to do, so I c early.

Beckett held the door open for me, patiently waiting for me to step inside.

‘You know, maybe we can do this another time,” I said, tapping my shoes on the walking path. I have better things to play fake with Sophie.

“We had a deal, Andi. We don’t go back on our words,” he reminded, as if that was an unbreakable rule in our relations

“When did we decide that?” I crossed my arms, standing my ground.

“Since we got married,” his patience reached rock bottom. He grabbed my hand and tugged me inside. I was instantly: with a soothing voice calling my name.

“Andrea, hey,” as though she was waiting for me the whole time, Sophie was there in the hallway, arms wide, ready to embrace me.

I was caught off guard by her friendly tone. For sure, she knows who we are in Beckett’s life, but why was she acting as if were besties?

In her flowy yellow sundress, a smiling Sophie didn’t give much of a choke. She pushed Beckett away so she could wrap arms around me. I was instantly surrounded by her soft jasmine perfume.

God Even her scent was perfect

“I’ve been wanting to meet you for so long,” she held me at arm’s length, and I was mesmerised by her pretty brown eyes They were so expressive, vibrant and full of bie. “This guy here told me to wait and want and wat. And mally, you’re here? she blurted out without pause

The more words shthering out of her mouth, the more I felt that I was at a disadvantage. She knew who I was she has been waiting to meet nie, and here I was unaware of her existence

I didn’t want to look stupid in front of this woman Call it instinct, but I wanted her to see me as her equal so I put on a facade and sauled sweetly at her My smile was soft and almost genuine, not a hint of the night I had with Beckett could be traced on my face It’s scary how good my poker tace is

“Really?” I smiled at Sophie, stepping back so she wasn’t invading my personal space 1 Lactually haven’t heard about you

Chapter 210

Oh, where are my manners?” she gushed, holding out a hand before me. “Im Sophie Williams. I am the founder of Hope.” She gestured towards the entire space that we were standing on. “And this place wouldn’t be here without help.

My smile was careful as I looked up at Beckett. He was the reason I was in this mess All he had to do was tell me. H

would that be?

“I didn’t know that either.” I wanted to pinch my husband’s side until his face scrunched. You and I we have a lot to about. My gaze said.

“It wasn’t public knowledge. He likes to work behind the scenes,” Sophie explained.

I stiffened when she looped a hand under my elbow, dragging me towards the dining hall as though we had been fri a long time.

[ stole a glance at Beckett. He had a secret, wicked smile, and I wanted to smack that smile off his face.

What the hell?‘ I mouthed at him.

I told you, he mouthed back as he trailed behind us. At least he wasn’t leaving me with Sophie, right? That should be consolation.

‘I heard you made spaghetti for the kids and they loved it. That’s something I can’t do. The kitchen is not for me.” she evealed, and I feel my chest puffing.

At least there was something I was better at.

Is it okay if I try your spaghetti? I haven’t eaten anything since this morning.” She was pouting the whole time as we re he kitchen.

‘Ahh, sure,” I murmured. “Let me grab you a plate.”

Thank you, Andrea!” she mumbled, and goodness, even her voice was as soft as an angel’s

I hummed, leaving her on the table with Beckett as I grabbed a plate and filled it with pasta

I am about to serve food for the girl my husband was supposed to marry. What are the odds?

I shoved away the intrusive thought of pouring MSG into her food Behave, Andi Give her a chance, and you can get out

She rubbed her hands together as I placed the plate before her Beckett sat across from Sophie sad beside him as bophie started delving into her pasta

Her eyes grew wide as she swallowed down. There was a sitical of sauce around her mouth as she grumbled. This is so good Beckelt wasn’t kidding when he said you can cook!

I slide a glance at Beckett He really said that to Sophic!

Sophie inhaled the pasta bar it was alt and she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand as she faced Heckett and me

“I’m so glad you came. There was something I needed to discuss with you about the orphanage.” Sophie turned to Beckett She sounded serious so I volunteered to leave

“I should go
