(Samantha Hill's POV)

The morning air was crisp as I made my way to the job interview. Thoughts of the night spent with Alexa lingered in my mind, offering both comfort and distraction. As I entered the building and walked through the corridors, my focus shifted to the task at hand.

My heart raced with a mixture of determination and nerves as I walked through the familiar corridors. This wasn't just any job interview; it was a critical step in our plan to uncover the truth and bring justice to those who had wronged Alexa. Some days ago I thought of another way besides getting information on Leia to help Alexa, which was to infiltrate at her old college and gather useful information about the nurse.

The interviewers' surprised expressions greeted me as I entered the room. Their questions were met with well-prepared answers, and I could sense their astonishment at my eagerness to work at the college. As the conversation unfolded, it became evident that they were more than impressed with my qualifications and dedication. By the end of the interview, I was offered the position almost immediately.

As I settled into my new office, a mix of emotions swirled within me. The plan to infiltrate Alexa's ex-college was taking shape, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of purpose. This was a chance to be on the inside, to gather information and expose the truth behind the bullying that had taken place within these walls.

Days later, as I crossed paths with Adam Glyn—the nurse who had played a part in Alexa's torment—a wave of conflicting emotions washed over me. His friendly smile and professional demeanor felt like a mask hiding a darker truth. I had to remind myself that this was all part of the plan, that I needed to gather information and expose the reality of what had transpired here.

We discussed the basics of the job, and Adam introduced me to a few colleagues. As we walked through the halls, his demeanor remained pleasant, and I found it hard to reconcile the man before me with the one who had participated in such heinous acts.

Throughout our conversation, I couldn't shake the burning questions that lingered in the back of my mind. How could someone seemingly normal be capable of such cruelty? What had driven him to betray the trust of those he was meant to care for?

As I engaged in small talk, I couldn't help but notice the subtle signs—glances exchanged, inside jokes shared among his colleagues. It was clear that Adam was well-liked and respected among his peers, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.

I struggled to maintain my composure as I smiled and nodded, all the while grappling with the rage that threatened to consume me. Beneath my friendly façade, the fire of determination burned even brighter. This man needed to be exposed for who he truly was, and the truth needed to be brought to light.

As the day went on, I continued to observe Adam, noting his interactions, his routines, and the way he carried himself. But there was more to unravel, and I knew that as I delved deeper into this role, I would unearth secrets that could change everything.

The encounter with Adam left me with a gnawing feeling in my gut, a reminder that appearances could be deceiving. The road ahead was fraught with challenges, and the stakes were higher than ever. As I left the college that day, I was reminded that I wasn't just fighting for justice and redemption— I was fighting for the truth that had been buried beneath layers of deception and cruelty.
