The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins (Sean and Claire) novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39 Find Claire Now!

Xander was a pampered rich boy who had never done a single household chore or set foot in the kitchen in his whole life. Since the servants were not going

to cook for him and he was too poor to order takeaway, he bought a carton of instant noodles. Those noodles were what he ate for every meal.

Clarissa refused to eat instant noodles. The mere scent of those noodles made

her feel sullied.

“Oh, my dear Clarissa, I have missed you so much!”

Xander wrapped his arms around Clarissa as soon as she stepped through the doors. Then, he eagerly carried her up the stairs…

Thirty minutes later with his arms wrapped around Clarissa, Xander made bold promises for their future together.

“Once Mom returns, I’ll have her throw us another engagement party. Clarissa, we’ll get engaged and then have the wedding early next year. I have everything planned out. We’ll get married on the Greek Islands with all of your family and friends in attendance. I’ll even sponsor their tickets. I promise you’ll have a grand wedding.”

Vanity was present in every woman, and Clarissa was vainer than the average-

woman.

What Xander said made her grin with joy. How she wished the Greek Islands wedding could happen tomorrow.

She raised her head and kissed Xander on the cheek before wrapping her arms around him. “I have loved you since I was a child, Xander. My dream has

always been to be your bride. Once your mom returns, talk to her so that we can get married as soon as possible.”

“I’ll do my best.”

When he made those promises, he sounded so very confident. Now that she w asking about the promises, it was he would “do his best”. What?

Clarissa instantly got mad. “What do you mean by that? Should it not be something you owe me?”

“…”

Xander frowned as he hesitated. When he saw just how dissatisfied Clarissa was, his only option was to explain what he meant.

“Clarissa, my mom told me that as long as I can retrieve the shares Claire

owns, they would give me as much money as I want and turn a blind eye to my future actions.”

Claire?

Upon hearing that name, Clarissa’s face grew even uglier. “Do they want you to marry Claire? Is your mom not happy with me as your wife?”

“No!” Xander frantically replied. “It was because she owns 10% of our company’s shares. With those shares, Claire will always have a voice and power in the Morgan Group shareholder meetings. The company belongs to th Morgans, so why should she have the ability to meddle in that?”

Frustrated, Clarissa pouted. “You asked her for them?”

“I did but she refused me.”

Suddenly, a thought struck Clarissa. Her eyes lit up as she excitedly said to Xander, “Did you talk to her at the hotel or…”

“Naturally, I went to the filming studio. The production team is currently using the studio of my family …”

“Haha! You’re amazing, Xander!”

Clarissa excitedly squirreled out of Xander’s arms to kiss him in joy before putting on her clothes. “Give the me address of the studio now, Xander!”

The filming had been delayed by days already. To catch up to the schedule, Mr. Smith had everyone working late into the night on the first day Suzanne joined filming.

They would go to bed at four in the morning and start work at eight the next morning.

In order to catch just a little more sleep, the cast and crew decided to sleep on the set in sleeping bags instead of heading back to the hotel.

The next day was the same with a very late clock-off time and a very early start on the next day.

Claire followed their schedule for four whole days. On the fifth day, Mr. Smith was kind enough to let them head back to rest at 10:00 p.m. since everyone looked like they were at their limits.

“My goodness! I’m exhausted. I feel like I’m going to fall apart.”

Julia slumped down into a boneless heap on the passenger seat the moment she got into the car. She did not want to move a single inch.
