“But she resigned already. Or has she come back here to teach again?
I can’t even believe that!”
Avalynn glanced disinterestedly at the woman who was causing all this fuss. She hadn’t seen this woman before, and she really didn’t care about whoever the latter was.
The teacher asked, “Hello, who are you?”
Hannah smiled warmly, “I’m here to see Avalynn Bailey. Where is she?”
Avalynn sat in the seat at the front, and as soon as Hannah mentioned her name, all the other students turned to look at her.
Avalynn stood up in confusion and said, “I’m Avalynn Bailey.”
“Is she here to present your competition prize, Avalynn?” one student whispered.
“Is she here to inform you about your prize money?”
Hannah nodded at Avalynn.
“Please, step outside; I want to talk to you about something.”
At once, Avalynn joined Hannah outside. But she hesitated on the corridor and asked, “Is there a problem?”
“Let’s go the bathroom to talk about it,” Hannah replied blankly, still walking.
Avalynn could tell that there was something strange about this, so she turned and made to hurry back to her classroom. Hannah’s low voice made her stop dead in her tracks.
“If you dare to run away, I’ll tell your teacher that you bully your classmate. Or I could even expose you to the whole school. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone got to know who you really are, Avalynn?”
Avalynn turned around and stared at Hannah. She was not stupid.

“Are you the one that Grace dragged here to back her up?” She looked Hannah up and down with a sneer.
“I advise you to stay out of this.
The Mitchell family doesn’t even care about the matter; what makes you think you have the right to meddle in my business? I’ll have you know that I come from the Bailey family in Hoijery. Maybe you’re too far down the class system to have heard of the name, but that doesn’t matter. Trust me when I say that it is in your best interests that you do not provoke me. I’m warning you right now.
Whatever you do to me, I will do the same to Grace. I have both the Mitchell family and Bailey family on my side. What about you-“
Hannah interrupted her before she could finish with her speech.
“Are you trying to dismiss me, then? If you don’t want to speak with me, I’ll happily talk to the principal and the other students instead.”
“Wait!”
Avalynn relied heavily on the affection her teachers had for her, and the fact that she had bribed all her classmates to be on her side.
