The silence of her apartment felt heavy, suffocating. She stared at the ceiling, unable to shake the image of Mr. Henderson, strolling out of a Rolls Royce. Always so friendly, always so quick to offer a pleasantry. Always concealing… something. She had been at his house for a dinner party, and now knew of the collection of artwork worth millions and the hidden underground car park.

She wanted to scream. She had taken a second job the previous week just to pay off a student loan. The injustice, the vast chasm between her life and Mr. Henderson’s, made her blood boil. She pushed herself upright. She had bills to pay.
