Initially, Jessel was supposed to care for the two children, but Quint took baby Miles for himself, and they considered themselves friends, with Jessel raising Flora. Jessel was a good woman, kind, smart, always treated Flora and Miles well, taught Flora. Quint was a servant, he could snap at everyone in the estate, he drank, he went to clubs, and he wasn't much of a gentleman. He met the sweet Miles, took him under his wing, and taught him inappropriate behavior, constantly taking him to clubs and for fun, and Jessel allowed it. Jessel and Quint were romantically involved, both dating in secret, and only Mrs. Grose, Miles, and Flora knew about their relationship.
