Because I Was an and He Threw Away 115

Chapter 115 The Reason 

Sophia sensed Emily’s displeasure, but she still forced herself to speak. “Mr. Robinson’s mother is sick. I heard Daddy say that only Dr. Thomas can perform this surgery. Mr. Robinson has been staying at the hospital for days because of this and hasn’t slept well at all. You and Dr. Thomas are good friends. If you ask him for help, he definitely won’t refuse.” 

Emily’s hands froze mid–motion when she heard Sophia’s words. 

She lifted her face and looked up at the ceiling. Suddenly, she laughed, even as tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. 

At that moment, everything became clear to her. 

Why had she insisted on having her come back to Joy Gardens? Why had she been so attentive, helping her with chores the whole time? 

Everything Sophia had done had been nothing more than groundwork. She wanted to ask Emily to help Andrew. 

To achieve that, she had even forced herself to call Aaron “Dr. Thomas“. 

Seeing that Emily had not spoken for a long time, Soria 12:52 reached out and hooked Emily’s little finger with her own

“Mommy?” 

After a long pause, Emily finally lowered her head and looked at Sophia. “Sophie, you said it yourself. Anyone Mr. Robinson dislikes can’t possibly be a good person. You don’t have to force yourself to call him Dr. Thomas.” 

Sophia took a while to react before recalling what Emily had said to her that day. 

So the person Andrew hated was actually the doctor who could save Andrew’s mother. 

For a moment, Sophia didn’t know what to say. 

Even so, she still pleaded, “Mommy, just think of it as helping me.” 

“I can’t help,” Emily replied. 

“Mommy?” 

Sophia drew out the word, her tone clearly turning coaxing. 

Emily’s voice remained cold. “I said I can’t help.” 

Only then did Sophia lower her eyes. “Okay, then.” 

She left the kitchen dejectedly and went to sit in the living 2/6

Nancy had not come to keep her company these past few days, which had made Sophia unhappy. She had thought that if she could help Ethan and Nancy solve this problem, they would finally have time to be with her. 

She had not expected Emily to refuse. 

Without realizing it, Sophia felt that Emily had changed. 

She sat small and quiet on the sofa, her mood sinking with her posture. 

From the kitchen, Emily glanced toward the living room. Seeing Sophia’s listless figure only made her feel a bitter sense of irony. 

She had refused to help, and Sophia couldn’t even be bothered to pretend anymore. She had simply walked away. 

Emily curled her lips into a smile tinged with bitterness. She finished up what she was doing, turned off the stove, then went to the sink, and slowly washed her hands. 

If Sophia didn’t truly need her, then what was the point of her staying here any longer? 

Leaving the kitchen, Emily looked at Rebecca and spoke with measured calm. “I’ve mostly prepared dinner. Help Sophie finish the last steps, and when it’s ready, keep her company 3/6

while she eats a little.” She paused, as if placing a period at the end of the sentence. “I have something else to take care of, so I’ll be leaving.” 

Seeing that Emily was about to go again, Rebecca frowned. “Mrs. Wilson, you’re not staying the night again?” 

As Emily untied her apron, she replied, “No.” 

Sophia heard Emily’s words and didn’t try to stop her. 

After gathering her things, Emily walked toward the front hall. 

Just as she reached the doorway, she ran straight into Ethan and Nancy, who were entering side by side. 

Emily glanced at them once and immediately tried to walk past them, but just as she brushed by, Ethan suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. “I need to talk to you.” 

Emily turned to face him, her tone cold. “If it’s about Aaron, then there’s no need. I’m not Aaron. I can’t make decisions for him, and I have no right to do so.” 

With that, she pried Ethan’s fingers off her arm. 

At that moment, Nancy stepped forward and blocked her path. “Ms. Carter, Aaron has always regarded you as the most important person in his life. He will definitely listen to you. Andrew has been staying at the hospital nonstop and has

passed out from crying several times. Just for Ethan’s sake, can’t you help this once?” 

Unlike Ethan’s hardline approach, Nancy had lowered her posture. 

Emily didn’t even want to look at Nancy. She only said, “Move.” 

Nancy didn’t step aside. Instead, she persisted. “Ms. Carter, just think of it as me begging you. Andrew is also your friend, isn’t he?” 

Emily’s eyes locked onto Nancy as she snapped sharply, “I said, move.” 

Nancy stretched out her arms and blocked Emily’s way. “I won’t move.” 

Emily rolled her eyes and rammed straight into her without any courtesy. She slammed into Nancy’s shoulder, knocking her aside. 

The path cleared, but as Nancy stumbled back several steps, she either lost her footing or stepped on loose gravel. 

In any case, she fell to the ground, her hand pressing against the stones. Blood seeped into her palm. 

Emily froze for just a brief moment at the sight. 5/6

Ethan’s reaction, however, was immediate. He hurriedly crouched down and grabbed Nancy’s hand. Seeing the blood, he quickly wiped it away with the sleeve of his white shirt. 

Emily had been married to Ethan for five years. She knew him too well. He was someone with severe cleanliness issues. 

Yet now, he showed no disgust at the bright red blood, even at the cost of staining his expensive shirt. 

Because when a man loved a woman, he was willing to abandon his principles. 

Emily’s eyes reddened instantly. 

So this was how Ethan loved someone. 

Even in something so small, wasn’t love always revealed in these details?
