I am his legitimate son

Trenton sat comfortably in his office, a calm and collected look on his well-sculpted handsome fair features watching his brother pace a storm in his office.

His brother had an angry bear look on his face and looked as if he was on the verge of murder and the target him.

Although he has always delighted in needling Chase feathers, today he was not in a good mood and his pacing wasn't helping matters. 

" Wearing out my tiles is not going to magically poof us out of this mess, you know, " Trent said, getting fed up with the oscillating movement that was making him slightly dizzy.

His bad mood this money was because he just found out he has been duped. He couldn't believe his stupidity if he wasn't living it. 

Chase Wade paused like a braked train and whirled on his brother, the veins on his forehead pulsating to the gravity of the ire tearing his insides apart.He was so angry that he could blow a fuse.

" You are the reason we are in this mess and you sit there looking like a damn king on his throne and complaining about my pacing. How the fuck does that help us, " he growled and then returned to his pacing.

If he doesn't move he was afraid he might strangle his brother. Despite how much killing his brother will satisfy him he couldn't bear hurting his father who loves the imbecile so much. 

His brother has always been frivolous and careless with his acts, but of all the stupid things he has done in the past, this one takes the cake. 

His brother had been so stupid and gullible that he fell into the hands of scammers costing the company billions of dollars that they are struggling to recover from, placing them on the verge of collapse.

And that is not the worse. The imbecile has no lick of sense to come up with ideas on how to solve the problem he sunk them in.

Why his father thought he could lead this company beats Chase mind. 

" And how does pacing like a cage lion help us, " Trent mocked. He knew his brother was secretly pleased with the situation he was in. If he couldn't find a way to solve this problem then his brother is going to take advantage of it. 

" My pacing is to stop me from wriggling that scrawny neck of yours for being such an imbecile, " Chase hissed. 

Trent sighed tiredly. Since he found out he has been scammed he has not be able to have a rest. 

" What is done is done all we have to do is figure out a way to rescue the company and not throwing muds at each other, " Trent said trying to be the bigger person. 

Chase scoffed in disbelief. Just like his brother to land himself In a mess and then turn around and look for who to bale him out. Not this time. 

" No brother, there is no we, your mess, you clean it up and you have two weeks to come up with a concrete plan to lift us off from this huge debt you sunk us into or I am calling an emergency board meeting to impeach you as the acting president of this company, " Chase threatened with a red look in his eyes.

Trenton wasn't surprised by Chase threat. In fact he expected it. Since their father made him the president of their company Chase had been waiting on the curves for him to fuck up and prove him right that his father made a mistake handing over the company to him. 

A mocking smile appeared on Trent's lips as his eyes grew cold. 

" How long have you been waiting to use that line, Chase. I am a little surprised that you are not running to father with this piece of information. "

" I mean you have been waiting for me to mess up and prove to father that he was insane to make me the president. Well here is your perfect opportunity. Go on, " Trent mocked with a sick grin before his features twisted into something sinister and cold. 

" Oh wait, could it be that you are afraid that father might not heed your cousel to remove me even if you do take this to him. After all we both know whose father's favorite is. "

Trent felt a load of satisfaction when he saw his brother's eyes flicker with pain before it became cold and threatening to match the look in his own eyes. 

There has never been any love lost between him and his brother since he came into their life and took their father's attention from him. 

Trent was the son of the woman their father had loved dearly. When his mother died he had been the only thing left of her memory and so was cherished so much by their father. 

Chase hand tightened into a fist as he tried to control his temper. It pained him that he is brother was right. There is no denying that their father has always preferred his younger brother to him. 

When he was younger he had been the apple of his father's eyes. They had been close as two peas in a pod, but all that changed when Trent came into their lives. 

He hadn't hated his brother outrightly when he was brought home by their father. No he had loved him. It had pleased him to have a younger brother to dote on but when his father started to ignore him in favor of his brother that feeling began to transform to jealousy and then grew to hatred when it became obvious that he was nothing in his father's eyes. No matter how much he achieves, whether is coming out on top of his class or going to best Ivy league school, all that mattered to his father was his younger son. 

Even knowing his brother might be right, Chase wasn't going to allow him the satisfaction of having the last words. 

A taunting smile curved his lips. 

" We both know Trent that father loves you, there is no disputing that but have you also forgotten that he loves this company almost as much if not more. Do you really think he will let it sly if he finds out that you have sunk the company just few months of taking over. "

His smile widened when he saw the doubt flash across Trent's eyes. 

" Keep this in mind. You might have father's favor but all he has will one day be mine. After all I am his only legitimate son, " Chase released his final shot with a cold sweet grin before sweeping out of the office. 

" Fuck you Chase! " Trent yelled with so much anger pushing everything on his desk to the ground. He stood to his feet fuming. He hated having his birth circumstance thrown to his face and his bastard brother knew that. 

His father had met his mother in one of his numerous business trips and had falling in love with her at first sight. They had an affair even though he was married and had a family. Things ended when it was time for his dad to return to his real family only he left his mother with a gift. Him.

His father didn't know of his existence until his mother's death and he was contacted as his only living relative. He had been eight years old at that time. 

" Damn you! " He screamed again smacking his hand on his desk. His hands shook with his high emotions as he searched his drawer for his cigarettes.
