Rich Radiant and Over Him (Alicia and Vincent) novel Chapter 211

Everyone in the class envied Chloe, showering her with flattery in the group chat.

Alicia couldn’t stand it any longer. She turned off her phone and started thinking about what to wear to the gathering.

Tyrone had been busy lately—apparently he was racing to meet some project deadline.

Without his help picking out her outfit, Alicia felt completely clueless about fashion.

She pulled a dress from her closet and paired it with some flats.

The doctor had told her to avoid any bumps or falls for now, so flats were the safer choice.

After all, it was just a casual get-together; she only planned to listen in on updates about the language program.

Once she was dressed, Alicia stood with her phone in hand, debating whether to tell Tyrone.

What if he was swamped? Would letting him know just distract him?

She was still hesitating when Tyrone texted her first.

Tyrone: What do you want for dinner tonight?

Alicia replied earnestly: My class is having a get-together this evening. I might go.

Tyrone: Where is it? Send me the address. I’ll pick you up when it’s over.

She found the address in the class group chat and sent it to him.

Tyrone: That’s close to my office. I’ll come find you when I finish up.

A gentle warmth filled Alicia’s chest, as if something inside her was slowly being mended.

At 3:30 in the afternoon, the driver arrived to take Alicia to the class gathering.

When she arrived, none of her classmates had shown up yet.
