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?”

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
