Part One
Chapter One
I breathed out a sigh of relief as I exited the sparkling clean glass doors of the office I worked in. I was an administrative assistant of Ruddford & Co., although I wasn’t entirely sure why the co was still in the title, as Max Ruddford (my snotty boss) had managed to drive away his ‘co’ due to his snotty ways.
He was a large, burly, spiteful man who never had a lack of saliva to spit in your direction when speaking to you and always seemed to have a cup of coffee (two sugars, drop of milk) sat on his desk going cold. You would have thought that with how stuck-up he was, his mouth would have been able to cope with scalding hot coffee, but no, he didn’t even drink it when it was lukewarm. Disgusting! He was rather intimidating but, having worked in his business for the last five years, he didn’t scare me.
I didn’t do anything exciting there, but I took the job as a way of getting a life for myself. I finished my university degree (communications – completely and utterly boring) then left my hometown of Leeds and got myself a job and flat in Westminster, Central London.
It was nice getting away from the constant flapping of my mother, who always had something to say about planning a life for myself. The truth was, and always had been, that I didn’t have a clue what to do with it. I had never been adventurous and had always been happy curled on the chair with my nose stuck in a book. It would be nice to earn a decent living from reading! All I knew I wanted from life was to leave home. I wanted to escape from the scrutiny from my family and leave behind the disappointment that they always struggled to hide. The only time they hadn’t been disappointed was when I got straight As in my GCSEs, and that was only because my mum didn’t let me do anything leisurely until I had revised for at least an hour a day. I wanted to be on my own, or at least with
