Rich Radiant and Over Him (Alicia and Vincent) novel Chapter 259

Only she would risk offending Maddox by standing entirely on Tyrone’s side, considering everything solely from his perspective.

She was clever, and undeniably brave—a remarkable girl.

In some ways, she even reminded him of Reginald.

After Alicia left, Clayton immediately messaged his men, ordering them to dig up everything they could on her. He wanted to know all there was to know about Alicia...

He was even planning to secretly arrange a DNA test to see if Alicia and Reginald were actually related.

“Sir, you mustn’t get worked up,” the butler urged, seeing the old man’s breathing turn ragged. He hurried over, gently guiding him toward his bedroom. “Let’s get you back to your room to rest.”

“If you don’t divorce her today, Tyrone—if you walk out that door with her still your wife—I’ll make your father and Easton the heirs of the family, right here and now!” the old man shouted, rising shakily to his feet and pointing a trembling finger at Tyrone.

Valery and Marcus’s eyes lit up, as if fortune had landed right in their laps.

Tyrone didn’t even pause. The old man had made his choice; it was just a matter of time, that was all.

“Sir—” Tyrone was already gone, and the old man’s vision swam. He nearly collapsed.

The butler managed to catch him, helping him back to his room.

Back in the living room, the rest of the family exchanged uneasy glances. They’d finally burned their bridges with Tyrone today; now, they had no choice but to put all their hopes on Easton.

“Marcus, Nicole’s right,” Uncle Abdul whispered, nudging Marcus and Valery. “Whoever Nicole marries will be the next head of Lynch Corporation, the future patriarch of the Lynch family...”

Valery perked up at once. “Nicole, you know, our Easton is quite the catch. When we get back to Seaview City, I’ll introduce you two!”

Nicole shot Valery a disdainful look—she found Valery hopelessly tacky, but right now, she had to make use of Easton. “Sure.”
