She eventually pulled away and whispered to her sister, ‘I love you, you know.’

Wednesday 15 May

Second interviews between DC Emily Marlow and the staff of Morris & Wood, following the fire on Monday 13 May

Henrietta James, Senior Account Manager

Henrietta:I suppose they kept it pretty professional in the office – their mutual dislike for each other, that is – though you could tell there were things going on behind the scenes.

Marlow:What kind of things do you mean?

Henrietta:Well, they clearly didn’t trust each other’s motives. That’s why it all blew up at the party. One of them had found out something. I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop, of course. But you couldn’t help it. They were so loud.

Marlow:Who found out what – do you have any idea?

Henrietta:I can’t say for sure, but what started it was when Laura went running over the lawn, yelling at Mia that she was a liar. She was shouting that she knew. That’s what she kept saying: I know about you.
     But, like I say, I couldn’t hear all of it.

Marlow:What did Mia do, when Laura was yelling at her?

Henrietta:She looked … well, she was furious, to be honest. But I mean, you can’t blame her, can you? It was embarrassing for everyone – it must have been horrific for her.

Marlow:You think she looked more cross than embarrassed?

Henrietta:Oh, I really can’t say. I mean I might be twisting everything all round here …

Marlow:Your loyalties appear to lie with Mia Anderson.

Henrietta:Of course; well, I don’t mean I was taking sides or anything. I really wasn’t. But Mia, well, it was all so out of the blue.

Marlow:Did you speak to either of them after their argument?

Henrietta:No. I went to look for Mia, but when I found her she was with Janie Wood and … well, I didn’t want to interrupt that.
     But I still don’t see what the argument at the party has to do with the offices being set on fire?

Marlow:Maybe it doesn’t. Did you happen to notice how much both women had been drinking that night?

Henrietta:(laughs) Well, Laura, yes; I mean you couldn’t help but notice how much she’d put away. And with a baby at home and everything. It wasn’t right. She was in such a state. To be honest, I was surprised to see her in the office yesterday. I thought she might have been too embarrassed. Though she did come in very late.

Marlow:How did the argument end?
