Alexander took some deep breaths, his hands stopping their slight shaking. He zoned in on the slight pain in her own voice, and that helped, a lot. Ellie had obviously experienced something similar. She wasn't going to just pity him like everyone else, treat him like he was broken.

Alex murmured, subsided into an awkward silence. Clearing his throat, he tried to smile, pushing it behind him. "Questions... Have you got any understanding with the Met? I know they always have a couple of cases they never get around to, and it's getting worse, apparently. Other than that?"

He stood, and leant over the desk, holding his hand out. "It's been a pleasure, Miss Fowles. My thanks for considering me."
