Harold's POV
The security guard's eyes widened when he spotted me stepping out at Clearwater High School. I could see the excitement practically radiating from him—no doubt he'd be telling everyone about this encounter for weeks.
Word had already spread from the security booth. The school's administrative team was rushing over, their faces lit up with anticipation.
I watched them approach, clearly thrilled by my unexpected visit. They were probably already calculating potential investment opportunities.
Leading the group was Orion Linton, the school's principal. Middle-aged and distinguished, he'd transferred here based on some impressive credentials and had earned a reputation as one of Clearwater's most effective educational leaders.
This was only his recent tenure running Clearwater High School.
Since taking over, he'd systematically eliminated the institution's problematic practices and outdated policies.
