“Why?” Larry repeated it in a low voice. “Because you’re nothing but an illegitimate
bastard. Yet, my grandpa always favored you and even wanted to hand the company over
to you. And you have the nerve to ask me why? I am the rightful successor of the Blakely
family!”
“So, you’ve never considered me a brother, only as an adversary contending for the
Blakely Group and supposedly responsible for your parents’ demise!” Tyrone looked down
at Larry.
Larry sneered and gave Tyrone a cold, hard look. “Isn’t that the truth?”
Larry always exuded a sense of gentleness and elegance, no matter where he was.
Tyrone never thought he’d witness such a cold, despiteful look on Larry’s face again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe last time Tyrone saw that look in Larry’s eyes was back in primary school when Larry
threw Tyrone’s schoolbag into the river. As Tyrone tried to retrieve it with a stick, Larry
pushed Tyrone into the river and threatened him not to tell their grandfather after he
climbed back out.
When Tyrone returned home, he concocted a story about accidentally falling into the river,
which explained why his clothes were drenched.
However, their grandfather eventually learned the truth. Tyrone wasn’t privy to what their
grandfather said to Larry, but Larry came to him with an apology.
Since that incident, the tension between them has eased, and they have grown closer,
resembling more of a family.
At least, that was what Tyrone had believed about their relationship. Now, it appeared that
it was merely a facade.
Larry had changed his approach. He concealed the resentment that was once on the
surface, burying it deep within his heart. He had successfully deceived both their
grandfather and Tyrone.
“I see. Let me make one thing clear. I never considered competing with you for the CEO
position at the Blakely Group. Grandpa made that decision.”
Larry regarded Tyrone with a sarcastic gaze. “I find it hard to believe you never knew I
aspired to that position! Even if you were oblivious before, you’re well aware now. Yet, you
still accepted the position!
“It was our grandpa’s final wish. I wanted to hand it over to you, but his wish meant
everything to me. Besides, I had given you the chance.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTyrone had distanced himself from the Blakely Group for two and a half months,
consistently declining the board’s offers.
He wouldn’t have returned if Larry had managed to stabilize the company during that
period.
Larry seethed with anger.
“Just say it. You think I’m not as capable as you, don’t you?”
“I did mean that.”
Larry was speechless.
Fists clenched, Larry abruptly sat up, glaring at Tyrone, enraged.
After staring at Tyrone for a few seconds, Larry felt his strength drain away and lay back
on the floor. He closed his eyes as if he had given up all hope of resisting.
