Rich Radiant and Over Him (Alicia and Vincent) novel Chapter 347

“Was this your doing, Tyrone? Were you the one stirring things up?” Tyrone’s aunt demanded, her composure unraveling.

Tyrone smiled coolly. “Do you really think the words of a former CEO—someone who was kicked out of Lynch Corporation—still carry any weight?”

She nearly collapsed, her strength failing her.

The butler stepped in with a sigh, ushering his staff forward. “Everyone seems to have forgotten that the Lynch family empire was built by Maddox from the ground up. None of you had a claim until he, out of the kindness of his heart, brought you in and gave you all a chance to prosper. He let you dine at the table and share in the success. But, what a shame…”

He glanced over the gathered relatives, disappointment clouding his eyes. The fortune and prestige given to them by the Lynch family had slowly eroded their sense of who they were. They’d forgotten their place, believing the company couldn’t survive without them—that the Lynch family needed them more than they needed the family.

Easton entered, settling onto the sofa next to Tyrone. “Hey, I just want to make it clear: the uncles and cousins I fired from the company—they got caught up in some wrongdoing. Legal has all the evidence. I just followed protocol. You don’t hold it against me, do you?”

Tyrone raised an eyebrow, amused. “Why would I…”

“What’s that supposed to mean, Easton?” one of the uncles shouted, desperation cracking his voice. “We’re family! I’m your elder!” Back when Maddox was alive, he’d always valued family ties and loyalty. But Easton hadn’t grown up in the heart of the Lynch household—family sentiment meant nothing to him.

Only now did the relatives realize just how badly they’d miscalculated. If Tyrone had inherited everything smoothly, maybe, out of consideration for family, he would have left them a way out.

But Easton? He wouldn’t give them the faintest chance.

“First of all, none of you own shares in Lynch Corporation. Second, you were employees—nothing more. While here, you repeatedly abused your positions for personal gain. Last year, your negligence caused a site accident—three dead, one injured. All of it traces back to your actions. Lynch Corporation won’t take the fall for your mistakes,” the butler recited, starting the reckoning.

This was Tyrone’s will.

Easton had picked off a few people for minor infractions, but Tyrone intended to wipe the board clean.

Every face in the room drained of color.
