The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins

Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Mr. Sean Can’t be Separated from Ms. Lawrence

Claire deliberately suppressed her voice and looked lustered as she glanced

at Sean.

Sean gave her a sidelong glance and said, “Hmm?”

Claire’s lovely eyes twinkled with a hint of embarrassment. She tightly held the spoon in her tiny hand and said, “Um, you just fed me with your spoon.”

“Oh, really?” Sean looked at his spoon before scooping another spoonful of caviar into his lips. Then, he said, “I was just having you help me test for poison.”

Claire,

After all that thought and consideration, it turns out he merely wanted her

to help him in testing for poison! She had been moved for no reason. Sean was really evil!

What should she do?

She really wanted to hit him!

Claire had a small appetite. So, half a bowl of lobster pasta was enough to fill her up.

She put down her spoon and looked around. Today, Sean had invited everyone to dine at Silverton’s most luxurious and splendid restaurant, Golden Splendor. The table was filled with top-notch ingredients, and most people here had never tasted such expensive and delicious food. Everyone was having a good time.

The dishes kept coming, and it seemed like the feast wouldn’t end anytime

soon.

Claire moved her chair slightly backward and was about to stand up when Julia asked, “Claire, where are you going?”

Claire motioned for her to lower her voice and then whispered, “I need to use

the restroom.”

Julia quickly set down her spoon and stood alongside Claire. Then, she said, “I’ll go with you.”

This was their usual routine. Julia would constantly follow Claire everywhere she went, like a shadow. The two young ladies were inseparable.

Claire nodded and held Julia’s hand as they walked toward the door.

At her table, Elena noticed Claire and Julia leave simultaneously. She didn’t have to think twice about it to figure out what they were up to. She exchanged a glance with her assistant and stood up together. Then, they walked towards the door a few minutes later.

Mr. Smith held a glass of wine and raised a toast to Sean. “Boss, I want to thank you for investing in the crew. That’s why we’re able to shoot so smoothly and happily.”

Sean’s brows wrinkled slightly when he noticed Elena and her assistant walking out. He said nothing but delicately clinked his wine glass with Mr. Smith’s.

Meanwhile, in the bathroom.

Claire and Julia were washing their hands at the sink.

Thinking about what she had just witnessed, Julia couldn’t help teasing Claire. “Claire, what do you think about Mr. Vanderbilt?”

The question quickly brought back Sean’s suggestion that she test the caviar for poison. Claire felt so irritated and turned on the faucet. The water splashed into a spray of droplets that resembled a flower. “What do I think about him? He’s just a wicked old man!”

The splashes of water landed on Julia’s arm. She refused to back down and scooped up a palmful of water and playfully splashed it towards Claire.

“Wicked old man? He obviously cares a lot about you!”

Claire’s suit had been drenched with water. But she didn’t mind because it wasn’t hers and belonged to that evil old man.

She playfully splashed some water back at Julia and exclaimed, “Julia, are you blind?”

“Hahaha.”

Julia was having a good time and splashed water at Claire as she said, “I’m not blind. It’s your heart that’s blind!”

Claire’s suit was half-soaked, and she realized she couldn’t outplay Julia. She turned off the water and laughed as she hurried towards the door.

When Julia realized Claire was attempting to run away, she spun around and pursued her down.” Hahaha! Claire, don’t run! This was the first time I’ve

defeated you! Can you give me a sense of accomplishment?”

Julia would have little chance against Claire if she weren’t physically and mentally ill.

The restroom layout was complicated, with three twists and turns to get to the outdoors.

Claire was about to enter the second doorway when two people showed up at the entrance to the third doorway ahead. She slammed on the brakes and grabbed the door to avoid an accident. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

But just as she regained control, a hand firmly pushed against her shoulder. It made her lose control and take two steps backward.

Julia rushed out and witnessed this scene. She dashed over and supported Claire.

Julia’s eyes blazed with rage as she yelled at the two people at the door, “Elena, are you insane? Why did you shove Claire if she didn’t stumble into you?”

She could put up with other people bullying her, but she would never put up with anyone bullying Claire!

Claire was the type of person who didn’t care about unrelated matters, but Julia wasn’t.

Earlier, she purposely bumped into Elena in the private room to avenge the wrong Elena had done to Claire that day.

Elena has long been aware of this characteristic of hers. Julia would get

angry whenever something terrible happened to Claire.

Elena bent her head, delicately picking at her flawless nails as she laughed sinisterly. “Julia, have you heard of the saying ‘a common man’s only crime is to carry a jade’?”

In the private room.

Sean glanced at the watch on his wrist. Claire had been gone for over ten minutes and had yet to return.

The producer had a low tolerance for alcohol and rarely drank much at social gatherings. But now, with Sean around and in a good mood, he considered finding funding for the next project. So, he ended up getting a bit drunk.

He rose and put his hand on Mr. Smith’s shoulder. Then, he took his own glass and extended it toward Sean as he said, “Mr. Sean! You’re my lord! Thank you for your generous support to our show. Let me make a toast to you once again.”

Mr. Smith smiled and pushed the producer’s hand away. Then, he helped him sit back down on his seat. “That’s enough from you. What do you mean by ‘my lord’? That’s so outdated!”

Several of the other executives nearby burst into laughter.

Sean gave them an uninterested look before standing up straight.

Mr. Smith quickly stood up and asked eagerly, “Mr. Sean, what are you …”

”

He wasn’t planning to leave right after the meal, was he?

Mr. Smith hadn’t even obtained Mr. Sean’s contact information yet, and the funding for the next project wasn’t secured either. It would be a waste if this dinner ended up being for nothing.

Sean naturally understood the calculations and casually slipped his right hand into his pocket. “Claire hasn’t returned yet. I’ll go see how she is.”

Oh my…

Mr. Sean can’t be separated from Ms. Lawrence for over a minute!

Mr. Smith could tell Sean liked Claire since they were fellow men. Mr. Sean wasn’t simply having a fling with Claire. He meant to marry her and make her his wife.

Mr. Smith smiled and said, “Then I’ll go with you. I also need to freshen up.”

Mason and several executives stood up simultaneously at the suggestion of freshening up.

“I’ll go, too.”

“Count me in.”

Sean glanced at them without saying anything. He just nodded and walked out of the private room surrounded by several people.

Julia was puzzled at the entry to the restroom at the time. She left this country when she was five years old and had only recently returned. So, she needed help understanding the underlying meanings of the saying.
