Lindsey had a hunch that Jayleen might’ve pulled some strings behind the scenes.

Still, it seemed far-fetched for her to have that much sway to make all the teachers from such a renowned institution turn down the offer.

Lindsey mulled over her next move, wandering through the institution’s buildings, her brow furrowed in thought.
