The Billionaire’s Surprise Twins

Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Do You Feel Sorry for Him?

She raised her head and saw that man running in Sean’s direction.

“Come closer and walk beside me. The streets are crowded, and there are plenty of careless people around. It’s not good if you get hurt.”

Claire blinked as she listened to his explanation, her expression unchanged.

Sean had grown up in a high-ranking family, accustomed to respecting his elders, so he treated everyone kindly.

“Okay.” She straightened up and positioned herself correctly, obediently Jeaning against his arm.

Sean raised an eyebrow, and a hint of a subtle smile appeared in his eyes.

The city center had diverse businesses, from expensive shopping malls and upscale restaurants to more affordable options for ordinary people.

However, the particular place they were heading towards was on the less-lit side, facing the bustling street.

Looking at a small restaurant ahead, Claire’s eyes lit up. “Mr. Vanderbilt, you’re used to eating foie gras and truffles. How about I treat you to something different today?”

Following her gaze, Sean saw the small, almost minuscule restaurant. Fortunately, it looked relatively clean from the outside.

“Sure.”

Given the permission, Claire happily ran over to the restaurant. She had the owner find them a corner seat, and she sat down boldly, waving at Sean. “Mr. Vanderbilt, over here, come quickly!”

Sean wore a tailor-made high-end suit, which seemed out of place in such an establishment. As soon as he entered the restaurant, all eyes turned towards

him.

Facing those gazes, he walked confidently to the seat opposite Claire and sat calmly.

Claire held the menu in her hand, her fingers pointing at various items. “This one, this one, and this one. Three dishes will be enough.”

The owner took back the menu with a pained expression. He had already taker several steps away, but he turned around to glance at Sean and muttered with disdain, “Dressing like a big shot, but only ordering this.”

Claire took a spoon from the wooden bucket, then brought Sean’s bowl over to her side. She poured hot water into the bowl and dipped the spoon to rinse them. After finishing, she placed the clean bowl and spoon in front of Sean before starting to rinse her own.

Sean watched her actions and found them quite enjoyable to watch.

Her hands were much smaller than his, with delicate and fair fingers. As she rinsed the spoon, her little finger would slightly lift, adding a touch of

-cuteness.

Claire arranged her own bowl and spoon, then picked up a glass of hot water and took a sip. “Huh, bitter buckwheat tea, it’s quite bitter.”

Her eyes glanced at the beverage counter, and she half-heartedly asked, “Sir, do you drink alcohol?”

Sean wasn’t in the habit of drinking during lunchtime and generally drank very little. He shook his head, “No, I don’t…”

“Since you don’t drink, I’ll get my own.”

Claire stood up, ran over, grabbed a beverage bottle, unscrewed the cap, and took a big gulp. She put the bottle of beverage on her side, satisfied. “This one’s still the best.”

Sean was speechless.

Did she ask if he drinks alcohol? She didn’t ask if he drinks beverages.

This little girl was too stingy with him.

“Claire, I remember the royalties aren’t low. How much did you sell the copyright of your book?”

Claire keenly sensed something, quickly unscrewed the beverage bottle cap, poured a glass, and placed it in front of Sean. “My royalties aren’t high, Sir. This beverage is delicious. Try it.”

The little vixen’s tail was showing, and Sean helplessly chuckled. He didn’t mind that the beverage bottle had just been drunk by Claire. He took a small sip of the glass and brought it to his lips.

CLOŠE

It was too sweet!

At this moment, the owner brought their dishes to the table without a word and then left.

Sean looked at the so-called two dishes and a soup on the table, his eyebrows furrowing tightly. “Claire, is this what you mean by taking me to eat something different?”

The two dishes and a soup on the table were fruit salad, steamed broccoli, and tomato basil soup.

Claire grinned and looked at him. “Yeah. Sir, you usually eat fancy food and rarely eat these home- cooked dishes, right?”

Sean raised an eyebrow. “Home-cooked dishes should have meat, right?”

Who was this little girl trying to deceive? Did she think he was someone who never ate home-cooked dishes?

Claire glanced at his lower half, then said thoughtfully, “Sir, don’t think

I’m being stingy. I ordered these three dishes to cool down your body. Mr. Vanderbilt, you need to cool down now.”

Cool down?

Only now did Sean remember what had happened in the office earlier …

But that was half an hour ago. Even if Sean had been furious, walking here had long since cooled him down.

He couldn’t help but chuckle at himself, “Alright, whatever you say goes.”

In a thoughtful gesture, Claire put a piece of fruit salad in Mr. Vanderbilt’s bowl. “This is refreshing and will help you cool down. I’m full now, so please have the rest.”

Even though she was clearly being stingy, he found her quite cute.

Claire ate the steamed broccoli and placed a fruit salad plate into Sean’s bowl. As they were eating, suddenly, the voices of a quarreling couple could be heard from outside.

“Xander, you brought me to eat here?”

Clarissa wore a pink dress and carried a designer bag worth several thousand dollars. She looked at this humble restaurant and felt like even stepping in would dirty her feet.

Xander took Clarissa’s hand and spoke softly. “You know my situation now, Clarissa. My dad cut me off and is not giving me any money. I had to sell my

watch to buy you that bracelet earlier. Please bear with me for now.”

Yesterday, Clarissa thought she could accompany the broke Xander for at least a month or two. But now, she felt like she couldn’t even bear one day.

In the past, when Xander took her shopping, they would buy limited-edition luxury jewelry. But now, he bought her a random bracelet from a regular gold store worth a few thousand dollars. She couldn’t even wear something like that!

“Xander, I don’t blame you for not having money. I can take you home to eat, but don’t drag down my status by bringing me to such a filthy place!”

Saying that she opened her bag, took out the bracelet, and threw it into Xander’s hand. “Don’t pretend to be rich when you’re not. Do you think I really care about the things you bought for me with all your money? I don’t care at all!”

“Clarissa, Clarissa!”

Xander tightly held onto the bracelet, quickly catching up with the angrily departing Clarissa. “It’s my fault. I’m sorry, don’t be angry. I’ll go home with you for dinner now.”

Claire sat in the corner, watching the scene outside vividly. She hadn’t expected the once vibrant and spendthrift young man from the past to end up so poor!

“Sir” Claire looked at Clarissa and Xander, biting her spoon. “Are the Morgans really so heartless? They won’t even give Xander a penny?”

Sean furrowed his brows and looked at her. “What’s wrong? Do you feel sorry
