Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

After Ashen's parents died in the car accident, he began to suspect everyone around him.

He had basically narrowed down his suspects to the ones who would benefit from his parents' death.

He began to investigate in secret and soon found out that the driver of the truck that rammed into his parents' car was ordered to do so.

It was a planned murder and the murderer was none other than William, since it was his secretary who met with the driver to give him orders.

This incident made Ashen vigilant and mature despite his young age. He knew that his grandfather would never believe him if he told him that William was the one behind Ashen's parents' accident.

From then on Ashen began to lay his plan for the day when William would finally make his move and that day had come.

He showed his true colors to Ashen's grandfather, allowing Ashen to finally execute his master plan.

~Next Morning, read first at m,v,l,e,m p _y,r

Ashen entered an old, abandoned building before navigating himself to a room with the number 26 written in front of the door.

He moves to the center of the room and removes the carpet, revealing a solid titanium steel door which he opens and enters the secret room under the building.

He looked around in the secret room only to find a green-haired woman in her late 20s. As soon as she noticed Ashen, She stood up as she greeted: "Boss!"

"Relax Mujin, Is everything ready?

"Yes Boss, I've prepared everything, would you like to start with the plan?"

Ashen revealed a confident smile as he moved in front of the large screen that was planted on the wall.

Mujin, on the other hand, went and sat on a chair surrounded by multiple high-tech computer systems.

She began working on the computer as the sound of pressing keys resounded in the room before she pressed the enter key and the large screen turned on, displaying William on the screen working on some papers at his table with his female secretary by his side.

Ashen looked at Mujin as she nodded in response.

Meanwhile, on the screen, the secretary's mobile vibrated in her pocket as she took it out and looked at it.

As soon as she looked at it, she took out a tablet from her pocket before opening Ashen's feed in it and placing it in front of William.

William was quite surprised by the sudden intervention by his secretary as he glared at her as a warning to not do it again, however, before he could say anything, Ashen's voice entered his ears:

"William, look here!"

William was taken aback by the sudden voice as he looked around before noticing the tablet and Ashen's Video call on it.

Ashen had a confident smile on his face as he said softly: "William, You've been poisoned!"

"What? What nonsense are you blabbering on? Have you gone mad after becoming poor? You are also calling me by my name, it seems your mental health has been severely affected, Let me get you admitted to the top Mental Hospital in the world! Tell me where are you?"

William said with a threatening gleam in his eyes and a forced smile.

Ashen understood that William wouldn't believe him unless he gave him proof.

At this moment, Mujin's voice entered his ears like a melody: "Boss, it's time!"

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Ashen's face as he asked William:

"You don't believe me, William? Well, should I make you believe? Here, see my fingers..."

He displayed three fingers to William: "When these fingers go down, you'll get the proof of your poisoning!"

"One!"

He curled down his index finger, leaving only the ring finger and middle finger.

"Two!"

He curled down his ring Finger, showing his middle finger to William.

"And Three!"

This time, instead of curling his middle finger down, he raised his hand upward as if piercing something with his finger like a spear.

*Cough**Cough*

William coughed out a mouthful of blood as soon as the three count was concluded. His eyes widened in horror upon noticing the color of his coughed-out blood.

The blood was dark in color with lumps in between. It was a clear indication that he was poisoned.

With a terrified and shocked expression, he raised his head towards the tablet.

"You believe me now?" Ashen asked, sneering at him.

William, wearing a cautious expression, asked: "When did you poison me? I was careful in every way, There shouldn't have been any opportunity for you to poison me! Tell me, how did you do it?"

Ashen smirked in amusement as he reminded him: "William, we can talk regarding this later. You don't have much time to live. There are only five minutes left before the poison will take your life, unless you take the antidote."

William's eyes brightened upon hearing about the antidote: "Ashen, let us start with a new beginning. Give me the antidote please, and I promise I'll return your Grandfather's property!"

Ashen nodded: "Yes, you should return it to its original owner, but that is not the price I want for your life. I want you to sign those papers"

William was confused, wondering about the papers he was talking about before his secretary presented them to him.

William was taken aback as he stood up in shock: "You? So it was you who was working for Ashen, but why? I made sure that you had only one mother as your relative. Even now, she is under my control. On my one order she will be killed, so what made you betray me?"

"Hey William, we don't have much time to give your answers. Just sign the papers and the secretary will give you the antidote!"

At this moment, William's eyes widened in realization: "You... Why should I believe that you'll give me the antidote after I sign the papers? What if you don't give it to me even after I sign the papers?"

Ashen shook his head in helplessness as he gestured to the secretary. The secretary nodded before moving to the edge of the window.

She took out a blue-colored capsule from her purse before holding it in her hand, with her hand outside the window.

"Listen, William, that blue capsule is the antidote, and The secretary will give it to you after you sign the papers, however, if you try anything funny, she will simply throw the antidote out of the window. You should already know that it will take more than five minutes to fetch the antidote back."

"Now Decide..."

William's gaze repeatedly shifted between the papers and the antidote as he contemplated his next course of action.
