"Mrs Wilson, are you okay? Is it about the promotion?" Quentin Rodriguez suddenly approached Mia, lowering his voice. "I heard there are only a few spots from the education bureau this year, and our school only gets ten. The competition is tough. But I can help you out; my uncle could put in a word with Principal Zach Jackson."
"No, thank you. I believe Principal Jackson will be fair. If I don't get it, it's because I'm not good enough. I don't need your help, Mr. Rodriguez."
Mia shot Quentin a cold glance, knowing his true intentions. Ever since he had pretended to be a masked man and assaulted her at her doorstep, she had seen through his despicable nature. He was a man without boundaries, willing to do anything to achieve his goals. Compared to him, Principal Zach Jackson, who also wanted her, at least acted openly and didn't resort to such vile tactics.
