I like the way you've established the story here and provided us with a clear context of Angela's workplace. We get a sense of her family and the threat that William and his secret information pose for her. Thanks for the share - I've now read some later installments but hadn't read earlier chapters, so this is helpful.

Maybe, Alto pilot is British speak for autopilot. Paragraph three.

I am confused throughout. You're a guy, right? But the primary characters are women save for William, which I am being led to believe is someone from the bosses past she'd rather not have in her life.
Have I got this right?

This is a really interesting perspective for a story. The first person perspective but told in present tense. The dialogue sounds natural and doesn't feel forced.

How courageous to begin here with a book! I sense writing has been an avocation for you, and the construct of this first chapter reinforces that...

Is this new writing for you? Are you sharing chapter by chapter something you have completed?

You have an easy cadence that I find very welcoming...

Off to read chapter two!

This is a good first chapter. You keep me wanting to see what happens next. There is a line that doesn't flow well for me, "not wanting to meet anyone in the eye." Maybe, not wanting to look anyone in the eyes. Have a blessed day.

Congratulations on your first post. I enjoyed reading and can't wait for more. Interesting story line. I will also fan you, so I don't miss any.

It's Monday morning. I'm late to work. (I'd combine this for a smoother read, It's Monday morning and late to work.)

I'd gone to the hairdressers at the weekend, (hairdresser over the weekend)

although she's complained about near enough every guy she's me (you can omit 'enough')

I look off to my left (you can omit 'off', it's not needed)

    Please keep writing. You have a good story going. My only suggestion would be to edit carefully and leave out unnecessary words.

Interesting.We want to know what he did to you. What is he to you? Why have you been running? Why are you so afraid of? The small office was good for the first set up, but I feel there wasn't enough build up and background, to bring in the enemy yet.
Good writing though. Karen

You need a comma after Kirsty. eg. Hi, Kirsty, good weekend? The word (cosy) in American English is most often spelled (cozy). Cosy is the British version. This sounds like the beginning of an interesting story. I look forward to reading more.

You have a good storyline that will be intriguing to most people. The only criticism is that you have some run on sentences and grammatical errors. Once you clean that up and refine your sentence structure your story will flow nicely.

ie one sentence revised:

I went to the hairdresser on the weekend and now due to the rain, my hair is going to be ruined.
