Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby

Chapte At the Hardison Mansion.

Sidney had an accident, and now their grandfather, Mick Hardison, shamelessly brought his illegitimate son, Tom Hardison, to claim Sidney's home as his own.

"If you dare to move in. I'll burn this place to the ground. Try me!" Caden's voice was frantic, his grip tight on a gasoline can in the living room.

"This is my brother's and my home. Why do you have any right to move in? What qualifications do you even have?" Caden shouted, his words full of suppressed

rage.

"You little brat, I am your grandpa, and this is your uncle. Sidney is gone, and his property is partly ours now," Mick said coldly.

"That's nonsense!" Caden sneered, his eyes filled with tears that burned. "Even if Sidney left suddenly add didn't leave a will, these properties shouldn't end up in your hands!"

Mick's expression darkened, and he shot a glance at Tom.

Tom sneered dismissively. "Without Sidney, you are nothing. It's not in your best interest to oppose the Hardisons. If we force you out, you'll have no place left to go."

In Tom's eyes, Sidney had coddled his younger brother. Caden was incapable and had no skill in handling the important matters that came with their family's matters.

That's why they had no hesitation in taking over the Hardison Group after Sidney's death because Caden was utterly incapable of running the company. Sidney's business was vast-something Caden simply couldn't manage.

Caden was a classic rich heir. He didn't need to learn or do anything because Sidney had planned his life out entirely.

Sidney also didn't want him to get involved in the messy, deceitful business world, so he kept Caden too protected.

After Sidney's accident, Caden was left in a state of shock, like a baby just learning to walk, unable to accept the change.

"I'll completely sever ties with you! Get out now, or I swear I won't be polite!" Caden snapped, furiously pouring gasoline, forcing Tom and Mick to leave.

"He's gone mad, completely mad," Mick muttered, sitting back in his wheelchair as he retreated, fear written across his face.

Tom, pushing Mick, sneered as they exited. "This useless lunatic! Without his brother, let's see how long he can keep up that arrogance."

Without Sidney, Caden had become an easy target.

Once, he had been untouchable in his circle, all because of Sidney's influence. But people, especially in his world, were quick to turn on those who were vulnerable. The backstabbing was inevitable.

"Get out!" Caden shouted angrily. After pushing away the people he despised, he collapsed to the ground
