Chapter 43 The Children Who Appeared Out of Nowhere

Frankly speaking, Sean did not have to renovate the apartment. When he bought it, the previous owner

had already renovated the place. However, Sean did not like modern interior design and had some contractors re-do the interior design while the furniture currently furnishing the unit all came from his mansion.

Hence, there was no chemical scent in the apartment, only a faint minty fragrance.

Sean sat in the rattan chair in the study room. As he thought about what Julia had said, his eyes grew cold.

Claire had dated a man before.

It was a scumbag.

When did she meet that man? Was it before that night or after?

After thinking about it, he was certain the encounter must not have been before that night. After

all, Claire was engaged to Xander, and she was not the kind of woman who slept around.

In that case, it must have been after she met Sean.

Sean was holed up inside the study room for the whole morning. Once lunch was ready, Jason knocked on

the door. He knocked and knocked, but no response could be heard. Jason did not dare knock again, so

he anxiously waited by the door.

The entire afternoon passed by, and Sean did not leave the study room at all. Jason could bear it no longer and knocked on the door again.

He had just raised his hand to knock when the door suddenly swung open to reveal Sean's icy face.

"You're finally coming out, Mr. Sean. You haven't eaten anything all day. Come eat something."

Sean glanced at the standing clock. It was already 6:10 p.m.

"You may head back to the mansion, Jason. I can take care of myself," Sean said.

"Mr. Sean, this apartment is huge. You'll need someone to clean and cook..."

Sean strode past Jason and entered the kitchen. Then, he pulled out a carton of milk from the fridge.

Sean strode past Jason and entered the kitchen. Then, he pulled out a carton of milk from the fridge.

With a tilt of his sensual neck, he gulped down the entire carton of milk.

Jason could tell that Sean was not in a good mood, but he did not know what to say. In the end, he sighed and left the apartment.

After sitting in the living room for 20 minutes, Sean stood up and opened the unit door to stride. over to Claire's apartment.

Ding dong.

As the doorbell rang, Claire appeared at the doorway, dressed in casual loungewear. She was not surprised to see him. "Are you here for food, Sir?"

He looked past Claire's shoulder with his dark eyes and observed the apartment. Julia was currently sitting on a chair by the dining table with her legs crossed. She had been happily enjoying her food but hurriedly ducked her head down in guilt when she saw him looking at her.

"You're still eating?" he calmly asked.

Was he not here for free food? Claire did not understand why he was at her door. As she lazily leaned

against the door frame, she asked, "Do you need something, Sir?"

Sean pursed his lips. "If you're done with your meal, would you accompany me for a walk downstairs?" Claire was almost done with her meal anyway. She glanced down at her outfit. It was fine to walk

around the area in her loungewear, so she turned to pull out a pair of white sneakers from the shoe cabinet. After putting them on, she turned to say to Julia, "Wash up once you're done, Julia." Julia did not even dare to look at the door, so she nodded and mumbled, "Got it."

It was only then that Claire smiled and patted Sean on the arm. "Let's go."

While inside the tiny elevator, Sean remained silent. Claire turned her head to sneakily glance at him. She could not help but marvel at how he was still as sharply dressed as ever in a tailored black

suit and white collar shirt.

What a stern man. He was dressed in a formal suit, even at home.

They walked out of the elevator and along the path that looped around the area, shaded by tall trees The sky grew darker, and the first star of the night appeared.

It was a beautiful sight to behold, but Sean's persistent silence felt oppressive to Claire.

"Erm... She awkwardly tried to strike up a conversation. "Sir...

Stunned, Claire felt like he was going to say something important to her. Inus, she hurriedly turned around to face him as well.

She looked up and stared at him unwaveringly.

Sean looked down. The usual sharpness in his gaze had dissipated, giving way to a gentle glow that emanated from the depth of his eyes. Standing tall behind him was a majestic tree and the first evening star adorned the night. Everything looked so perfect.

As Claire held her breath, she heard him say, "Claire, I like you."

Just like Sean, even in the confession of his love, he was completely tactless.

The atmosphere was so solemn that she thought he was going to say something very important. She h not expected it to be an extremely simple confession of love.

Claire's eyelashes fluttered as she gazed up at him with fair cheeks swiftly turning red.

It was not like she did not know how kind Sean had been to her. However, it did not feel right to say anything before he did. What if Sean ended up telling her she had been overthinking it? It would have been so embarrassing.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down before continuing. "Actually, I..."

However, before she could finish her sentence, a series of footsteps echoed from behind her. Claire was about to turn around when she was suddenly hugged from behind by a tiny body as a child's swe voice cried out, "Mommy! I caught you, Mommy!"

That voice...

A young boy standing nearby disdainfully looked away with a hand in his pocket. "I let you win!"

Claire turned in surprise and was pleasantly shocked to see two familiar faces. "Jon! Belle! Why are

you here?"

As she spoke, she knelt down. Belle happily snuggled into her arms as she rubbed her cheek against

Claire's. "We're here because I missed you, Mommy!"

Jon snorted. "If I had not located Mommy, do you think you could have found her?"

As she spoke, she knelt down. Belle happily snuggled into her arms as she rubbed her cheek against Claire's. "We're here because I missed you, Mommy!"

Jon snorted. "If I had not located Mommy, do you think you could have found her?"

The trio happily chattered away, completely ignoring the tall, handsome man standing next to them.

Sean felt a headache coming on as he looked at the two children who came out of nowhere.

Claire had children?

There were even two of them!

Were they that scumbag's children?

At that moment, a man walked over from around the corner, laughing as he said, "I had no choice. The two kids constantly bother me about finding you every single day. I didn't tell them where you were. but they were smart enough to locate you. If I didn't bring them over, they would have found a way to

come here sooner or later."

When Sean heard the voice of another man, his eyes instantly turned cold as he sharply glared at the

man who appeared.

Was this the man?

Sean knew the man walking over to them.

This man was Joseph Harper, one of the men sitting at the top of the country's pharmaceutical

industry.

Joseph could sense the imminent danger, but he was someone who could not back down or embarras

boss.

"Ahem." After clearing his throat, he locked eyes with Sean. "You are?
