Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

hapter 163 5234 Chapter 163 Robert turned around to see the girl from earlier. In just a few steps, she was in front of him, pulling his hand away from Thorne’s grip. “Sorry about this, she said to Thome.

Thorne looked at the girl with a smirk. “You’re much cleverer than him, he commented, before quiddy pulling Emma from behind Robert. “Emma, it’s time to make good on your promise?

Emma’s eyes were filled with panic. She hadn’t expected things to escalate so quickly. She drohtely did not want to be this chubby guy’s girlfriend. Just looking at his face made her feel disgusted Robert’s gaze remained fixed on Thorne’s hand holding Emma’s. His expression darkened, and he felt the urge to teach Thorne a lesson. However, the girl was holding his hand tightly, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t free himself “What? Are you upset with me? Thorne raised an eyebrow, watching Robert’s hand twitch as if ready to retaliate.

The girl said, “No, Thorne, You misunderstood. He doesn’t mean anything by it: Robert looked at her beside him, and in an instant, a wave of frustration flooded his chest. He thought, “What do you know? Shut up!

“Good students like you always look down on people like me, huh?” Thome said, staring at Robert with a teasing smile.

He said, “You probably don’t know who I am, but let me remind you, if the Davis family had the power to stand against the Ludwig family, you could fight me all you want. Sadly, your father is already dead...

Robert glared at Thorne with fury. Thorne, however, was unfazed, his expression still as casual as ever. “The Davis family isn’t what it used to be.” He pulled Emma into his arms. “So, it’s best you stay out of this!

Robert couldn’t quell the rage burning in his chest. He struggled to break free from the girl’s grip, but her hold only tightened.

Just as he was about to break free, she leaned in close, whispering, “Think about your family. You can’t afford to make an enemy of this guy.

Robert finally managed to calm down.

Thorne, sensing victory, smirked. But when he turned his head to look at Emma in his arms, his expression darkened. He thought, ‘What is that look on her face? Reluctance? Is she looking down on me?

With a sudden shove, he pushed Emma away from him. Emma wasn’t prepared, stumbling several steps before barely catching herself on the railing. Her eyes locked with Robert’s, filled with desperation. She was silently begging him to help her.

Thorne stared at Emma, his tone laced with frustration. “If you don’t want to keep your promise, that’s fine. I’ll just make this whole thing public. Let’s see how it goes.”

The moment those words hit her ears, Emma’s eyes flashed with panic. If this got out, her reputation would be ruined. Although Natalie was the one who had initiated it, she could always pin the blame on her. That was the worst–case scenario.

After all, no one could guarantee Emma wouldn’t be affected.

Emma glanced at Thorne, thinking, ‘Fuck it, I’ll just be his girlfriend for one day–anything was better than him airing this out for everyone to know!‘ She stepped closer to him, and, in front of everyone’s shocked gazes, linked her arm through his.

Thorne looked down at her delicate hand with a smug smile. “Good girl.”

Once Thorne and Emma had left, Robert collapsed to the ground. He couldn’t believe what he had just witnessed. He didn’t understand why Emma became close to someone like Thorne.

The girl knew he was upset and reached out to comfort him, but as soon as she touched him, he roughly shook her off. He glared at her, his eyes red with anger. “Get away from me! I don’t need your help!”

She felt hurt. She had just been trying to help him, but he was being ungrateful. She wanted to leave him alone, but thinking about their friendship, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.

She didn’t want to just leave him behind. She looked at Robert who was still sitting on the ground and swallowed her frustration.

“Do you really think you can take on Thorne? He’s like the school bully–no one dares to mess with him.

“You’re the only one who challenges him without thinking. Are you planning to be some kind of hero? Thorne is right. The Davis family doesn’t have the strength to go up against him right now.

“You seem pretty smart, so why didn’t you think about your family before you acted rashly?”

As Robert opened his mouth to argue, the girl cut him off. “Shut up! I’m not done talking.”

Robert shut up, knowing he had no response. The girl, satisfied with his silence, continued, “Emma has probably got something on her that Thorne’s holding over her. Even if you manage to save her, she might not go with you. Why bother?”

Robert had no idea who Thorne was, but after today’s incident, he could piece things together. There had always been rumors about the school bully, but he had never encountered him personally, so he hadn’t realized how serious it was.

Now that he knew, he felt a deep sense of humiliation. He never imagined he would cross paths with someone like Thome in such a way. It stung.

“Alright, go back to class. Do you want me to help you up?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.

Robert quickly shook his head. “No need.” He stood up and walked back to class, taking just a few strides to get there.

By the afternoon, news of Emma and Thorne spread like wildfire throughout the school.

Ava was leaning with her chin resting on her hand, looking utterly disgusted. “I can’t believe Emma would do something like this.

The Davis family is in trouble, and now she’s already hooked up with Thorne. She’s such a bitch.”

“Yeah,” someone added with a sly grin. “Everyone saw what happened outside Class 1 earlier. Is this how strong the bond between her and Robert?”

“Come on, they’re not even married,” another corrected.

“Well, at least they’re childhood friends,” came the playful reply.

Everyone chuckled at that. They agreed that it was easy for lovers to enjoy the good times, but when things got tough, that was when the real test came.

Just then, Sterling rushed into the room, looking flustered. “Someone reported Elena, saying she used her position to give Elysia special treatment!

“And there’s even a rumor going around that Bianca’s injury was planned by Elysia–she had Thorne deliberately hurt her foot, all so she could replace her!”

The room instantly erupted in anger. “Who the hell is spreading these lies?”

2/3 15:07 Sat, 15 Feb Chapter 163 “What’s going on with Elena?” Elysia’s cool voice cut through the noise, and everyone immediacy gheret down, wanting to risk missing a single word.

Sterling said, “There are a lot of people upset with her actions. Some are even threatening to remove her from her position Upon hearing this, Elysia stood up, her expression serious. Without another word, the stormed out of the classroom Reaching the student union’s office, she paused, noticing a meeting was underway inside.

It was Elena speaking. “Since this incident was caused by me, I will take full responsibility and resign. However, the goition of head for the Honor Guards will remain unchanged”
