    "Yes, the school won''t find fault with Mr. Hunt, but the parents aren''t easy to pacify," Joanne added worriedly, Lone Pine Elementary is an important school in this city, and its studentse from either rich or noble families. Now, my ss''s parents know that I''m a teacher without any academic qualifications or experience, and that I have terrible scars all over me. They won''t let it go. They''ll demand an exnation, and then they''ll find out that Mr. Hunt yed a part in this. It''ll affect Hunt Enterprise, and Mr. Hunt too."

Do you want to scare her and get her killed?" Although Quinton was her twin brother, she could not be biased toward him. He was too extreme, and Joanne was just a victim in all this. Renee had to make her feelfortable.
