Two ways to look a this problem:

Point of View 1:

Did you hire this CTO to make your company succeed? If so, then listen to his expertise and move the f* out of the way. Do not interfere with those who understand what they're doing. Ever.

Point of View 2:

What exactly does the other guy do? Business? What is that, exactly? Ordering pizza? And why can you not do the same thing? If you don't have a set role, then make one up.

Here's my $0.02 (Similar to POV 1):

In business, there is no room for emotions. You have to do what's right: Leave. If you lack the qualifications to contribute in a productive way, then find other people who can, and your company will have a higher likelihood of success. Just sit back, and relax. Make sure you walk away with a nice chunk of equity though, and you'll live a happy life.
