Answer:

  • The story’s bitter antagonist felt such great malevolence for all of the other characters that as a result, his life was very lonely and he died alone.
  • It is difficult to believe that charging 20% on an outstanding credit card balance isn’t usury.

Explanation:

The word "Malevolence" in a literal sense means someone who has a habit or has any evil motive to harm others. Hence, in the abovementioned question, the word fits as it does talk about such an evil antagonist.

The word "Usury" in a literal sense means the action in which the debtor has to pay higher interest in return. Hence, it can be concluded that it is justified to use the word usury in the abovementioned question.
