The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins by A Young Cabbage

Chapter 6 Innocence

Everyone in the room was shocked upon hearing the three words “Mr. Sean,” except for Claire!

Robert had spent many years in the business world, but he had only dealt with small-time entrepreneurs. He was accustomed to being fawned over and flattered. Someone like Sean, a top domestic tycoon, was out of his league.

The mention of Sean’s name made him turn pale and stutter. He could barely get out the words. “M-M-Mr. Sean, how did he come?”

Xander pondered momentarily and said, “Mr. Donovan, don’t be nervous. It’s probably because my parents discovered I would break off the engagement with Claire today. Since they’re out of town and can’t come back, they asked the elders in the family to come and oversee things.”

The reason why the Morgans were able to rise to prominence in Silverton was all thanks to Xander’s mother, Evelyn.

Evelyn was not from the main branch of the Vanderbilts, but she was a distant relative from a collateral branch. She could be considered a distant cousin to Sean, who is from the main family’s branch.

Relying on this connection, the Morgans received the protection of the Vanderbilts, making them untouchable in Silverton. That was why Robert and Alice insisted on having Clarissa marry Xander.

Robert took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. Then, he patted Xander’s shoulder with a smile. “Alright, alright, I understand. Let’s go. We’ll welcome Mr. Sean together.”

Claire raised an eyebrow, curious about the newcomer who had made Robert lose

his composure.

The person who could frighten Robert to this extent must be someone of great importance. However, this person seemed to be here to help Xander pressure

Claire.

Well …

Whoever he was, Claire wasn’t afraid!

Claire looked at Xander and Alice, then stood up without a word. The four of them quickly walked to the entrance. Claire’s lips were curved in a cold smile, but her expression was calm and unmoved.

At the doorway stood a man in a black tailored suit, his white shirt slightly unbuttoned to reveal a glimpse of his collarbone. He exuded an aura of restraint and abstinence, yet it was hard to resist the urge to unbutton his shirt further, as if uncovering a hidden scenery. Beyond his self-restraint, he emitted a captivating and sensual charm.

The man’s eyes were deep and penetrating, his nose was strong and aquiline, and his lips were thin and firm. All of these features combined to create a

mature and distinctive masculine charm.

Clarissa was completely stunned. She had never seen such a handsome and

charismatic man before!

Xander discreetly tugged at her hand and respectfully addressed, “Mr. Vanderbilt.”

Clarissa was dumbfounded.

Mr. Vanderbilt?

What was going on? Why were they calling him Mr. Vanderbilt?

Alice saw that Clarissa was lost in thought and snapped her out of it with a nudge. Then, along with Robert, she greeted the newcomer fawningly, “Mr.

Sean.”

Sean responded with an indifferent “Hmm,” lifted his foot, and entered the room. As he passed Claire, he maintained a straight gaze ahead and seated

himself on the spacious sofa.

Although the sofa was large enough for three people, Xander and Robert did

not dare to sit down, not even on the empty sofa next to it. They all stood respectfully to the side, like servants attending to a king who had just taken his throne.
