My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 442: Double Standard

Sensing that Stanford was studying her and Clarence, Florence felt a bit guilty.

She didn’t dare to let Stanford learn about Clarence’s real identity for the time being, because she was afraid that it would not help to eliminate their grudges and instead it would bring some other misunderstandings.

Florence didn’t dare to stay close with Clarence and moved aside. She also shifted her gaze away from Clarence.

She changed a topic, “Come on, let’s play the cards.”

Looking at the cards in his hand, Stanford slightly furrowed his brows and his handsome face became a bit stiff.

Just now Florence and Clarence mocked at Benjamin for not being able to play the game ‘Fight the Landlord’ and embarrassed Benjamin a lot.

Stanford felt delighted when watching the scene, but now…

As a matter of fact, Stanford also didn’t know how to play this card game, then wasn’t him also a rookie who was even inferior to a three-year-old kid?

Stanford held the cards stiffly. After hesitating for several seconds, he threw the cards onto the bed.

“Now that we’ve driven Benjamin to leave, we don’t need to play this game now. It’s late. Flory, you should go to bed now.”

Florence pressed her lips together. It turned out that Stanford had seen through her small trick.

At the very beginning, she asked Phoebe to play cards together on the spur of the moment and regarded it as an excuse for her to come to Clarence’s bedroom at night.

But now, when the four of them were sitting on the bed in a circle, it looked harmonious.

It seemed like this was a rare opportunity to close the gap between Stanford and Ernest.

Therefore, with a smile on her face, Florence pulled Stanford back to the bed again.

“Stanford, actually it’s still early now. I can’t fall asleep even if I come back now. It’s not easy for four of us to be together, oh please, please accompany us to play the game. It will not last long.”

Her voice was soft and cute, and it sounded like she was begging him cutely.

Stanford’s heart softened.

Stanford had never refused Florence’s request. Moreover, ever since he forcibly separated Florence and Ernest before, Florence had been indifferent to him. Now Florence invited to play card game together…
