Because I Was an and He Threw Away 105

Chapter 105 The Bully 

Emily’s mind immediately zeroed in on Andrew as the prime suspect. 

With Nancy by Ethan’s side, he wouldn’t stoop to stirring up trouble like this. And beyond Ethan, Andrew was the only one with the clout to pull it off. 

Plus, there was already bad blood simmering between him and Aaron. 

Worried, Emily quickly sent a message to Aaron. [Are you okay?] 

But no reply came. 

She waited, anxiously, through the day—and even after work, Aaron still hadn’t responded. 

Unable to sit still any longer, Emily hopped in her car and drove to his apartment to check on him. 

As she approached the entrance, something immediately felt off. A crowd of people with cameras milled about, snapping photos in one direction. 

Following their gaze, Emily saw it—Aaron’s window had been smashed.

A foul stench wafted from his place; someone had hurled filth inside, turning his home into a reeking nightmare. 

Worse still, vicious words scrawled in red ink plastered th 

scene. 

[You’re nothing but an animal!] 

[You don’t deserve to be a doctor!] 

[You have no morals whatsoever!] 

[I hope you get cancer!] 

[I hope your whole family suffers endlessly!] 

The sheer venom in those messages sent chills racing down her spine, a cold dread knotting in her gut. It was as if an avalanche of malice had been unleashed, all targeted at Aaron. 

Too wary to venture inside and risk drawing more attention, Emily typed another message. [If you’re home, stay put n’t come out. If not, steer clear for a few days.] 

Still, she got no response. 

Emily didn’t linger, revving her engine and speeding straight to the restaurant Andrew frequented.

Luck was on her side; she spotted his car parked outside when

she arrived. 

Fuming, she stormed inside. Andrew was cozied up with a scantily clad beauty, savoring a fancy meal. 

She marched right up to him and demanded, “This mess with Aaron–it’s you, isn’t it?” 

Andrew set down his knife and fork, dabbing his mouth with a napkin. He slung his right arm over the back of his chair, swiveling to face her with a cocked eyebrow. “Yeah, guilty as charged.” 

His admission was swift and unflinching, with no hesitation 

and no denial. 

Emily’s fists clenched in rage, her glare piercing. “You’re despicable!” 

Andrew spread his hands nonchalantly. “Hey, if you’re outmatched, just admit defeat.” 

That pushed her over the edge. She exploded, her voice thundering. “Bullying people with your power–what kind of skill is that? Andrew, your tactics are downright disgusting. If you’ve got a problem with me, come at me directly!” 

Andrew arched an eyebrow slightly, his smirk unfazed. “He’s protecting you. Anyone I don’t like–I make sure they’re 3/6, 

crushed.”

Faced with such a brazen abuser of privilege, there was nothing Emily could do. She retorted helplessly, “Andrew, you’d better pray you never need anyone’s help in your life.” 

Andrew crossed his legs leisurely, his smile cool and mocking. “Afraid I’ll have to disappoint you there–I have never begged anyone in my life. Even if I did, it would only be Ethan or Nancy.” 

Emily let out a bitter, scornful laugh, biting back further words as she spun on her heel and stormed out. 

She knew he was behind it, but she was utterly powerless to fight back. 

In Los Angeles, aside from Ethan and Alexander, Andrew and Shawn wielded the most influence. 

And except for Alexander, those power players were all intertwined. 

Taking on Andrew meant clashing with Ethan and Shav 

In a bind like that, what could she possibly do? 

Back at Carter Manor, Emily spent a little time playing games with Molly before heading upstairs.

Aaron still hadn’t replied. Her worry gnawed deeper, a restless 4/6

knot in her chest. 

She tried calling, only to hear the line go dead–his phone w off. 

Though she’d never endured cyberbullying herself, Emily knew it was a storm no ordinary person could weather alone. 

The cruelty of online mobs cuts sharper than knives, more poisonous than venom. 

That night, sleep eluded her almost entirely, her mind racing through shadows of concern. 

It wasn’t until the wee hours of dawn that Aaron finally messaged back. [I’m fine; don’t worry too much.] 

Relief washed over her at the sight, but guilt quickly followed. She typed back remorsefully. [I’m so sorry.] 

Aaron responded: [It’s not your fault–don’t blame yourself.] 

They exchanged a few more words, but then his side went quiet again. 

Despite the sleepless night, Emily felt surprisingly alert the next morning, a strange surge of energy fueling her. 

She headed to Joy Gardens early and prepared breakfast. 5/6

While eating with Sophia, Emily’s eyes kept darting to the stairs and out toward the hall. She was waiting for Ethan to 

return. 

These troubles were beyond her reach, but Ethan? He could handle them with ease. 

It didn’t take long—within minutes, Ethan strode in from 

outside. 

The weather was grim, a hazy fog clinging to the air, leaving tiny droplets beading on his clothes. 

Seeing him, Emily suddenly didn’t feel the same desperate urge to ask him to intervene. 

But as he started up the stairs, she called out instinctively, “Ethan?”
