Prevent calling global function for each same element on the same page when 'click' event is invoked

I encountered a problem having two buttons removeButton with the same selector $("div[data-lookup-entity-type=some_type] .js-lookup-clear");on a page.

So when I am clicking on 'X' (clear) button then two confirmation dialog appears (screen below):

That is the code that registers click event when 'X' button is being actually clicked:

var removeButton = $("div[data-lookup-entity-type=some_type] .js-lookup-clear");

removeButton.on("click", function () {

	var accessGroupControl = $("div[data-lookup-entity-type=some_type] input[type='hidden']");
	var selectedAccessGroup = accessGroupControl.val();

	if (isStringUndefinedOrNullOrEmpty(selectedAccessGroup)) {

		return true;
	}

	app.confirm.showConfirmation({

		text: "some text",
		caption: "some caption",
		resolveButtonText: "Yes",
		rejectButtonText: "No",
		reverse: true
	}).then(function () {

		removeButton.unbind("click");
		removeButton.click();
	});

	return false;
});

I assume that having two identical buttons (I mean same selectors: $("div[data-lookup-entity-type=AccessCode] .js-lookup-clear");) causes the confirmation dialog call twice.

I was trying to tackle with binding of showConfirmation that was partially successful: there's been invoked just one confirmation dialog, but for any reason the value in the input element was cleared.

Is there any other options to solve that problem without any changes in HTML or something? Or may be the problem is not even in a global showConfirmation function or a callback itself?

The problem code:

removeButton.click();

In this statement (inside the then handler after showConfirmation()),
removeButton is a jQuery collection containing multiple elements. Calling click() on the collection clicks all elements in the collection.

What seems to be missing is code to identify and remember the HTML element clicked, before calling showConfirmation. While unable to provide code to fit the actual app's architecture, I suggest starting by renaming removeButton to removeButtons as the first step.
