Chapter 107: Only One Chance!
"What do you want from me?" Alex placed his legs on the table while he stared at his so-called brother with a hatred filled look.
"I know what you are doing these days. If you did not stop.. Have you ever thought about what a mother would feel when she would come to know that you are taking drugs." Alex gritted his teeth. His eyes burnt with anger as he slapped the table hard before Alric could finish himself.
"It is Amelia for you! She is my mother not yours!" The voice was loud, harsh and full of hatred. Alex’s chest heaved with rage. "You are nothing but a filthy being, a mistake that even your father regretted. Or he would have already given his company to you. No matter how talented you are and how you have convinced my mother to support you, Alric! You would never be part of our family. Forget about being my brother or guardian, you do not qualify to even be my servant. So go fuck off when i am still being kind." he glared hard at calm Alric. His calmness and silence had only been like a vicious sleep on his face.
He wanted to kill Alric. Get rid of this man who reminds him how his father had cheated on his wife. How he had been having fun with another woman when he was dating his mother. Such a pathetic being. His hatred was evident in his every word and action but Alric did not feel rage. He knew this anger was not for him but for their father. A scumbag who had an affair with a poor Cinderella and had sex with her while promising marriage while already meeting a heiress for his marriage.
He had fooled both women. But since his mother did not get married, she got burnt and he became an illegitimate child who was brought to her after the death of his mother.
"I never wanted to be here either. Me and my mother.." Alric went silent and closed his eyes. His chest burnt too but he did not want to fall low to Alex’s standard and curse him.
"You have a day. As long as you get rid of all the drugs you have and promise to not repeat your mistakes, I will forget about the matter. Or your parents would know about it." Alric intentionally used "your" when he talked about their parents.
"So that’s your new style to improve your image in front of your father. For shares? Or for wealth? No! If that would have been enough, you would have stopped sticking your nose in my matters. But you want to be the heir of our conglomerate. Right?" Alex tilted his head, a look of mockery replaced by the rage he was feeling earlier.
"But there could only be one heir and that is me." Alric shook his head as his eyes dimmed. Money! Heir! If only his desires were that simple!
He turned and left, only stopping at the door. He placed the reports of the chromatography on the table.
"Keep it! I have many copies already. I will send one to your school too." Alex gritted his teeth and snickered.
"Ha! Do you think I care? They all are just dogs who would always bow in front of me." The door was slammed on his face that made his eyes colder and darker. He kicked the table hard. And pushed everything on the table on the ground.
