Since he came to Alverton, it was likely that he had struck some kind of deal with Kayla. Otherwise, how could he be so brazen?

The training program that was supposed to begin in the afternoon was delayed. Upon learning about the situation in Alverton, the vice principal frowned and found himself in a dilemma.

The college had organized this trip to carry out donation and assistance work for impoverished elementary schools, but Alverton, as it turned out, was not what they had been led to believe.
