So here is the new writing style, I'm going to apply in the novel:
For the thought of a character, it would be Italic.
Other than this, everything will be same for now. ^..^
-------------------------------
William knew that he would die in a few minutes if he did not sign the papers and he needed that antidote to live.
However, if he signed the papers, he would lose all the wealth and power he had.
Would a life without them be worth living?
He contemplated in his mind, he wanted to know if his life was more or less important than the wealth and power that he had to pay as a price to Ashen for his life.
Even if I die right now, my wealth and property will be passed on to Leopold, my son.
But would it be worth it?
Can he manage this much wealth by himself?
And what is the guarantee that he won't get caught in the same scheme by Ashen?
If he signed then, wouldn't my sacrifice right now be worthless?
If the wealth is going to be sacrificed anyway, wouldn't it be better to save my life right now?
Also, hasn't Ashen also lost everything, but then too, he managed to put me in this situation and is going to get all the wealth back?
If I get to save my life, there will be opportunities to take my wealth back.
"Maria was a tough opponent for even the biggest playboys of the world, however, then came along a man who had sincerely fallen in love with Maria at first sight and wanted to marry her, however, he didn't have money or status to pursue his love."
"Since I was already helping men to try and seduce Maria, I decided to help him too. I gave him some money and a fake identity with which he could meet Maria. Maria, at first treated him the same way how she had to other men, however, after seeing his sincerity, she somehow fell for him."
"They married each other without your knowledge since I was helping them from behind to escape your surveillance and it was easy since you were so confident in your control over her with her mother that you only made two men protect and spy on her. I simply made those two work under me with some means. They began giving you false reports and everything escaped your eyes."
"After that, it is today. I threatened Maria with her husband and promised her the safety of her mother and she agreed to poison you."
William's eyes were wide open in awe: "You... You were planning for that long? What kind of child are you? You monster!"
"Of course, and it wasn't easy. I first thought that threatening you with your children since kidnapping them would've been easier than all this, but then I remembered that you don't love any of your children more than your wealth and power, hence I decided to go with this plan!--"
*Cough* *Cough*
William suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood and his eyes were widened in horror and shock. It was dark again and this time, much darker and full of lumps.
"Didn't I take the antidote? Ashen, what's the meaning of this?
In response, Ashen looked at the watch and saw the time: "Oh, 5 minutes are up? William, It looks like the antidote didn't work! You'll be dying any second now!"
"WHAT??" William stood up in shock and anger and as he was about to curse Ashen: "You!.."
"ARgh!"
Suddenly, he grabbed his neck as he was not able to breathe properly and froth came out of his mouth and he fell to the ground.
Soul left his body and he died.
