Marriage Without Love: Sir, Please Stop novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93 You Are Not Good Enough for Me 

Unexpectedly, Bennett and Claire drew identical cards in the first round. 

Everyone in the room exclaimed in excitement as the cards were shown. 

"Wow! Mr. Shaffer and Claire have a match. Is this just a coincidence?" 

"Into the container room! Into the container room..." 

"Into the container room!" 

"..." 

Catalina looked at the black and red jokers in Bennett's and Claire's hands, feeling complicated. 

She forced herself not to care about it. 

However, she couldn't even dare to look at Bennett who was sitting across from her, fearing that she would catch even the slightest hint of pleasure in his eyes. 

Bennett, though he had drawn the joker card, still had a blank face. 

It seemed that he was not surprised by this result at all. 

He stood up and gave Darnell, who was controlling the game, a cold warning glance. 

Darnell, with a stalk of grass in his mouth smirked indifferently and said, "Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Shaffer on having a hot night." 

The term "Mrs. Shaffer" made Catalina's heart twist into a knot. 

That was how Darnell used to call her. 

Now, he easily called someone else by the same appellation, but she still felt awkward and uncomfortable. 

With her legs crossed, Catalina lowered her head, staring at her toes. 

Claire, with a shy look on her face, tucked her hair behind her ear and said, "Lina, excuse me for leaving first." 

Before leaving, she patted Catalina's shoulder to remind her, as if she was afraid that Catalina didn't know what was going on. 

"...Okay." 

Catalina replied with a forced smile. 

But she knew that her smile at this moment must have looked very stiff. 

After Claire left, Emery kept rolling her eyes. "What kind of friend is she? She was clearly showing off to you just now! You treat her as a friend, but she doesn't treat you the same way." 

Catalina rested her head on her knees and felt a mix of emotions. 

She and Claire had gone through many things together since high school. 

Back then, Catalina was isolated by her classmates because she was from a poor family, and only Claire was willing to be her friend despite her status and other classmates' contempt. 

At that time, Catalina thought that no matter what happened, she would always be Claire's best friend. 

However, she didn't expect that they would both fall in love with the same man. 

One became the love of his life. 

The other became his spouse. 

To be honest, how many friendships could withstand such a cruel test? 

Catalina watched as Claire, holding Bennett's arm, walked to the room with him. 

The door slammed shut. 

They entered the room. 

Catalina's heart trembled and ached for a moment. 

Hastily, she looked away. 

But her eyes accidentally met Darnell’s face, who was standing on the other side with a mischievous grin. 

He looked at her with a flighty expression, as if he were asking her whether she felt heartbroken. 

She tightened her grip on his shirt angrily. 

This man was always heartless and trampled on her dignity. He never gave a damn about what she had done for him, and that was all because of Catalina, that b**ch. 

The thought of it made Claire extremely resentful. 

She stood on tiptoe and forced a kiss on him. 

Bennett was caught off guard. 

The next moment, after realizing what was going on, he firmly grasped her shoulders and ruthlessly pushed Claire away. 

Claire fell to the ground, with a thud. 

The people outside heard the sound. 

Darnell teased them in such a loud voice that everyone around could hear him, "Ben, take your time. If ten minutes is not enough, then twenty minutes will be fine! Don't be so rude, you might hurt Claire." 

Everyone burst into laughter. 

Emery grumbled beside Catalina, "Are these two shameless or what? His legal wife is still sitting outside. It's ridiculous!" 

Catalina gave a self-mocking smile. 

His legal wife? He never regarded her as his wife. 

As she was thinking about this, the door was pulled open. 

Out walked Bennett with a gloomy face. 

His unapproachable look seemed somehow terrifying. 

What was going on? 

Was he unhappy when he stayed there? 

"Ben, even if you're unsatisfied, don't be angry! At least wipe off the lipstick from your lips before coming out." 

Darnell joked boldly at Bennett.
