Explanation:

“For” is the correct preposition after “destined” in this context.

“Destined for” means ‘headed for/ bound for/ intended for’.

The subject of the statement “the brilliant administrator” is singular. Hence the verb would also be “was” (=singular).

Hence, the sentence is absolutely correct from every aspect.

Therefore, option E is the correct answer.
