Tonight Stanley had been losing steadily his luck simply not with him His handsome face had taken on a cold distant expression
Jessica was focused on her cards and a bowl of fresh seasonal fruits was beside her She delicately picked a large dark purple grape peeled it and gently held it to Stanley slips

Seems like you can t have it both ways No wonder Mr Hawk has been losing tonight
Jessica smiled a playful pout on her lips Stop making fun of me you guys
Outside Wendy watched the scene through the door This was the first time she d seen Stanley out with Jessica playing cards with his friends
A sharp sting of pain hither chest
Stanley lost again He tossed his cards on to the table pushing his chips forward You guys can split it up
Bennyandtheotherslaughedand clapped.Bennysaid,”Thanks,Stanley!Alwayssogenerous!”
Another guy laughed Mr Hawk is burning through cash tonight
Stanley didn t show much emotion His back was relaxed against the chair his posture lazy as if he had lost all interest in the game
Jessica looked at him with adoration in her eyes Stanley are you tired of playing
I think Stanley s out of steam one guy teased
Another grinned while chiming in Ms Jessica want to help Mr Hawk get some energy back
The group began to tease them
Jessica smiled and poured a glass of wine Want a drink Stanley
Stanley watched her not saying a word
In front of everyone Jessica climbed on to Stanley slap Her position was slightly elevated and she leaned forward resting her hand on the back of his chair She playfully pinned him against the seat
Still lounging in his chair Stanley seemed to finally show some interest His once bored expression now held a hint of amusement as he raised an eyebrow at her
Jessica bit the rim of her wineglass and tilted it letting the red wine spill out
Stanley was amused He chuckled and allowed the wine to trickle into his mouth
“WOW!”

The others kept teasing but Jessica playfully scolded them to stop Stanley just smiled watching her with a tender indulgent gaze
