Rich Radiant and Over Him (Alicia and Vincent) novel Chapter 312

Private Dining Room

The elder had chosen a discreet chef’s table, the kind of place that served just one party a day. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, it was small but absolutely hidden from prying eyes.

Reginald’s meeting with Alicia was meant to be completely off the radar.

His very presence in Seaview City was already a risk. If word got out—if Jade or Brandon caught wind that he was meeting Alicia now—there’d be hell to pay.

Clayton waited outside the door, giving Alicia a subtle nod to go in alone.

Alicia hesitated but stepped inside.

“Reginald,” she greeted politely.

Reginald’s eyes were rimmed red. He stared at her for a long moment, lost in thought.

Alicia grew uneasy. “Reginald?”

Clayton stepped forward. “Sir, your tea’s gone cold. I’ll fetch a fresh pot,” he said, quietly reminding him before picking up the teapot and leaving.

Reginald seemed to come back to himself. He offered Alicia a gentle smile. “I asked you here today for just one thing. I wanted to talk to you—ask if you’d consider divorcing Tyrone.”

Alicia lowered her gaze. So, after all, it really was about divorcing Tyrone.

Seeing the look on her face, Reginald rushed to explain. “I’m not here to force you. I just want to know how you feel. Is there real love between you and Tyrone, or is it just a contract, just about the money?”

He was thinking that if Alicia didn’t truly care for Tyrone, staying together for money’s sake was pointless. He wanted her to decide for herself.

“Reginald, whether or not Tyrone is the Lynch Corporation’s heir, as long as he doesn’t want a divorce, I will never leave him.” Alicia’s voice was steady and sincere.

“So, you do have feelings for him?” Reginald nodded, visibly pleased. He liked Alicia as his granddaughter-in-law, and when he’d discovered that Alicia was actually Nicole, he’d been overjoyed.
