He waved the bat and shouted at me, "You little bastard, you want to call the police? Go ahead. Do you think I'm afraid of you? I'd love for the police to take you away, so you don't affect Emily's studies."
Suddenly, someone posted a message in the live stream.
"I've seen this boy. A young woman always picks him up in a luxury car, hugging and kissing him. She doesn't look like a parent. He must be kept by a rich woman."
As soon as this message was sent out, everyone in the live broadcast room started to gossip again.
"Look at him acting so righteous, I thought he was being wronged. It turns out he really was kept by a rich woman."
"Young people these days don't want to endure any hardship, they haven't even started college and already want to take shortcuts."
"Whose kid is this? Why doesn't someone come out and discipline him?"
My parents lived abroad all year round and didn't use WhatsApp, so it was my account.
I checked the contact who said I was being kept and saw it was Henry's mom.
Previously, during an exam, Henry wanted me to help him cheat. I refused.
Later, he was caught by the teacher and had his parents called in.
When Henry's mom arrived, she desperately gave me signals, wanting me to clear things up for Henry.
But I chose to tell the truth to the teacher.
From then on, Henry and I had a grudge.
I never thought his mom would come out to attack me at this time.
Noah got excited as soon as he saw this message.
"I knew it. How could a kid afford such expensive stuff? It turns out a rich woman keeps him. Tsk.
"So young and already on the wrong path. And you want to corrupt Emily? Since no one is disciplining you, I'll teach you a lesson."
Saying that, Noah smashed a baseball bat into the glass cabinet next to the bookshelf.
Inside the cabinet were jade and porcelain Dad had bought at high prices at auctions. He treasured them, but now Noah had smashed them all into pieces.
Watching my homeroom teacher, Roy Davis, stay silent stunned me.
In my past life, Mom was afraid I would lose things. So, she left a spare key and my home address with Roy.
Later, Emily missed the exam because she was hanging out with Daniel and had even gotten pregnant.
If Roy hadn't given Noah my key and address, I wouldn't have been brutally killed by Noah before the police arrived.
It wasn't until after my death that I found out Roy was actually Emily's uncle.
