bothersomely
In pestering fashion
In a manner that causes annoyance or inconvenience.
The adverb is rarely used—bothersome itself isn't common, and the adverb form even less so.
When it does appear, it typically modifies verbs describing persistent minor irritations: The faucet dripped bothersomely through the night.
