The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins (Sean and Claire) novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Beating the Unhappy Couple

“I understand, I understand!”

Robert laughed and patted Xander’s shoulder again, quite satisfied with this

son-in-law.

As they walked out from backstage, they realized that things had already gone awry outside.

Although Xander had pulled out the computer’s power cord, the intended footage had already been played. The guests were left shocked and bewildered by the news of Robert selling his daughter.

“My god! There’s actually such an evil father in this world. For the sake of his own interests, he actually sold his elder daughter to Mr. Anderson, that old man!”

“Alice claimed that Claire had eloped with another man. However, Claire immediately slapped her across the face with this video. I could almost feel the sting of the slap myself.”

“And then there’s Clarissa. I actually thought she was a decent person earlier, but she joined her mother in scheming against her own sister. Such a malicious heart!”

“I believe that Clarissa may have had a romantic relationship with Xander in the past. After all, her mother stole Claire’s mother’s husband, so it’s not surprising that Clarissa would steal Claire’s man. Xander is not a good guy either!”

Robert’s face flushed red as he saw the guests pointing fingers and whispering.

He couldn’t hold his composure any longer. “It’s not what you think. Let me explain …”

Claire walked over with a smile, affectionately linking her arm with Robert’s. “Dad, don’t worry. Take your time to explain to them.”

Robert, “…”

How could he not worry?

How could he not be in a hurry?

The engagement banquet tonight is definitely not going to continue, given how things have turned out. Robert knows that he will be ridiculed and scolded by others in the future, and he is so anxious that his stomach is churning.

At this moment, he truly wished he could slap Claire to death for being such/ an unfilial daughter!

Claire watched Robert and Alice tirelessly trying to explain to the guests, but after so long, they hadn’t clarified anything. She found this scene quite satisfying.

Claire sighed in disappointment. “Dad, I actually have a lot more to say to you, but I can see that you’re busy and don’t have time to listen to me right now.”

Robert really wanted to use a piece of tape to shut Claire’s mouth. He was so anxious, yet she was still pretending to be innocent on the side!

Claire shrugged her shoulders, then turned to Xander and winked. “Xander, same old rule. Tomorrow evening at 5 o’clock, at your place.”

After saying that, Claire playfully waved at Xander, smiled, and turned to

leave.

Xander watched her proud figure and suddenly felt as if he had never truly known her.

Was this still the same Claire who used to be docile, never fighting back or talking back?

Rather than saying Xander grew up with Claire, it would be more accurate to say that he grew up with Clarissa.

When Claire was very young, her mother passed away. After Alice married her father, she began to groom Clarissa to be Xander’s wife. Every time Xander came over, Alice would make sure that Clarissa was by his side, while Claire was often left out.

And even when she did see him, Claire was relegated to serving tea and water, acting like a servant.

So in Xander’s eyes, he looked down on Claire.

But today’s Claire seemed different …

“Xander …” Clarissa jealously grabbed Xander’s hand, forcefully diverting his attention away from Claire. “Since when did you become so close with Claire? Still sticking to old rules … you two …”

Xander brought his focus back and affectionately patted Clarissa’s hand. “Clarissa, don’t you already know the relationship between me and her? There’s nothing going on. Her words just now were meant to provoke us, don’t

“I …” Clarissa pouted, words on the tip of her tongue but swallowed back. She raised her chin, looking at Xander with a coquettish smile. “Of course, I won’t be fooled. Xander, you’re mine, and no one can take you away!”

Xander chuckled, then turned his head again to find Claire’s figure. However,

Claire had already left, and he couldn’t see anything.

Clarissa, with her sharp eyes, noticed this. Her eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty.

As soon as Claire got into the car, Julia’s excitement couldn’t be contained. Without waiting for Claire to fasten her seatbelt, she eagerly asked, “Claire! How was it? Did your dad like the gift you gave him?”

Thinking of Robert’s explosive reaction, Claire chuckled softly. “It seems like he quite liked it.”
