The Duchess

[SummerMcLovin]

The door swung shut behind him, cutting out the bustle of the rest of the building. Puctual as always, a quick adjustment of his glasses was all that Sir Richard Northridge required to be ready for the... social frivolities that sometimes were required of a Member of Parliament. His duties as one of the many New London Members had often brought him to The Duchess over his rise through the Royalist Party ranks, but this particular smoking room was usually kept for Bowex's purposes. This is what brought the Cabinet member here today, a meeting with an 'influential financial adviser to Her Majesty's government'.

A few strides over to the two velvet smoking chairs nearest the fire brought Northridge face to face with the Director. "Thank you for the invitation, James, a pleasure to see you again", he said, proffering his left hand (the habit he'd developed) and his well-known smirk - the best he could offer as a smile. "How have you been? Running the war effort these days it seems, depending on who you ask of course."
