Dear Tyrant
Reid, Henrietta
When Mike Kendall let her down, Helen felt she had to get away from everything and try to recover-and the job as secretary to Max
Renton  looked  like  filling  the  bill.  "lt  might  be  interesting",  she said to herself, "to show Mr. Renton that there's at least one female in the world who's not ready to jump to his bidding!"

Indeed  the  combination  of  Max's  stimulating  attitude,  and  the peace and beauty of the Kent countryside, did their work well, and Helen began to feel her old self again.
