William was given the choice by his family to be the successor to their family outside Northendell or betray his family and become Ronan's watchdog. At that moment, he knew that his family was proved guilty and decided to value the bonds of friendship he had built with Ronan. He even became the man's right-hand man.
William looked at Aimee, Arielle, and Irene walking away from the king's office. Maybe… if he was still with his family, he would also have a family of his own. William then shook his head. He was still enjoying his youth, and he was not in a hurry like Lazarus who kept asking Aimee to marry him. Besides, Kael had not found a woman who would be his future wife either. There was still plenty of time, William thought.
