The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins (Sean and Claire) novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 Who is Claire?

Elena was only one step away from joining the prestigious family. All she had to do was take that step and sit alongside Sean. And then, her identity as Mrs. Vanderbilt would be established halfway.

Victor suddenly raised his hand to stop her as she got within five steps of Sean.

She furrowed her brow and scowled at Victor. “What are you doing? Didn’t you hear Mr. Vanderbilt invited me to come over?”

Victor smiled coldly as his low but merciless voice heard. “Mr. Sean didn’t call for you.”

Not her?

How could that be?

Elena shrugged her shoulders and boldly jutted out her chest. She looked pitifully at Sean and said, “Mr. Vanderbilt, look at him. He’s not letting me pass. I’m so sad…”

She spoke with that sickeningly sweet tone. Victor rolled his eyes with

disgust.

Why did every woman lose the ability to speak correctly in front of Mr. Sean?

Sean didn’t even glance at Elena. His gaze swept over her and locked onto Claire’s face. “Claire, how much longer are you going to stand there?”

Claire?

Who was Claire?

Why did that name sound familiar?

Claire yawned lazily and wandered over. In the meantime, everyone else became

confused about whom Sean was referring to as Claire.

“Don’t blame me, Sir. You didn’t address me by name. How was I supposed to know you’d called? Wouldn’t it have been embarrassing if you hadn’t called and I had confidently gone over?”

Elena’s face went from pale to red. Why did she get the sense that Claire had

mocked her?

She was called shameless and told she’d be embarrassed to death!

For two days, the entire crew had flatteringly told her that Sean had developed something special for her. She had even believed it herself, so she went straight over once Sean finished speaking.

Now, she was humiliated that everyone on the crew was watching her.

She glared venomously at Claire as she approached her. But Claire acted as if she didn’t exist. She walked past her and stepped on her dress a few times as

she went by.

As Claire got closer, Sean raised his hand and tapped her forehead. “Besides you and me, who else in the crew would I recognize?”

Claire wincingly placed her hand on her brow. “Ouch!”

Sean didn’t remove his hand. But instead flipped it over and rested his palm

against Claire’s forehead. “Why is your forehead so hot? Do you have a fever?” Sean asked as the warmth of his touch caused his brows to knit.

His palm was cool and comfortable to Claire. But with dozens of eyes on them, she felt a little embarrassed.

Although Sean is an elder, he is a handsome man. This intimate gesture could lead to misunderstanding.

“It’s nothing. I was a bit dizzy in the morning, but I took medicine at noon and napped for a while in the afternoon. I’m doing much better now.” She said as she brushed Sean’s hand away and sat near him.

Sean’s gaze turned icy in an instant. “In the morning?”

Mr. Smith’s and the producer’s hearts raced faster, and they exchanged glances Both of them recognized Claire had requested departure in the morning. What were they saying at the time?

Their gazes turned to Elena’s assistant face at the same time. It was all because of this darn woman. Could they have pushed Claire to come if she

hadn’t called her out for being overly dramatic?

This was a disaster! If Claire complained to Sean about them, they might say goodbye to their future chances.

The assistant shrank back. She was scared by their stares and took steps backward. Those eyes were too intimidating as if they were about to swallow

her.
